What Should I Do...??

[Anjali1124]

I have just completed 12th class with science (bio) and now I'm confused between being a psychiatrist and psychologist...Which one would be the best career for me..?

[Mamyalynne]

Do you have a careers adviser? If so discuss it with them - or research each profession carefully looking at both the pros and the cons of each.

[Mamyalynne]

If they did then they've been tidied up.

[Anjali1124]

I don't have a career advisor..

[Mamyalynne]

Set to then and do some research on each and weigh up which you feel you'd be able to qualify for and get the best from.

[Anjali1124]

Well...thanks

A psychiatrist involves a medical qualification but a psychologist does not - depends whether studying medicine appeals or not (and whether you have the entry qualifications)

Which would be the best career for you?...after you have researched each thoroughly and found out what you would be doing..either privately or in institutions choose the one that you think you would be the best suited to. No one can make this sort of decision for someone else..particulary a total stranger .... you have to do it yourself. You must be 18 and maybe nearly 19 ...it is time to start deciding for yourself....I wish you all the best.
