The Psychology Major's Handbook PDF

I would recomend this book to every person who is a psychology major. This book has helped me to see all of the diverse areas I can explore during my career and how to best market myself for securing these positions. After having read the book, I can see more clearly all of the skills I have gained and how I can best market and utilize them all in the world. I have read and reread this book many times to consider how to best prepare myself right now and have gained new insight with each read. The book helped to give me more direction and was very clear and has great humor thoughout. I am now really excited about finishing my degree and trying all of the areas I have found that I have great interest in that I was not aware of before.

Something nagging at me is preventing me from giving this book 5 stars. For one thing, it's purported to be a handbook for current psychology majors, but the first one or two chapters are directed towards evaluating reasons for selecting psychology as a major. If you're not sure or still shaky on your major being psychology, this may help; but for those who are positive and solid in their choice, it's not helpful. To me it states too many things that are obvious. It's definitely not worth nearly $30! "Getting In," the APA-written manual on getting into graduate school, was a little over $10 and was a much better buy than this book.

However the book is good, and it may help those wishy-washy major-changers settle on whether or not psychology is good for them. My advice: borrow it from someone who has it, or find it at the library, and then decide if it's a constant reference you'll need or one-time reading material.
