Psychology OR Psychology and Criminology?

I got an A, but i have no idea how. I hated sociology the most!

I would probably go for Psychology or Criminology
If you include Criminology, you lose BPS accreditation I think?? (which means you can't apply for the high paying Psych jobs, if you think you want to do them later on - e.g. clinical psychology).

I hated Sociology last year too and somehow got an A, but it's my favourite subject so far this year



Not necessarily.

With those grades don't waste applications with the last three as you can do better than that! Push yourself and apply to the best universities - you can do it!

There are tonnes of Universities that offer Psychology and Criminology as a Joint Honours degree and still has BPS Accreditation.

for De Montfort, you still get the BPS accreditation, they still cover everything you need for it

Thanks. That's good!! - I didn't realise that was the case.
Been ages since I started my Psych degree - and have often heard people complain about their lack of BPS accreditation with their joint hons degree, so made a tentative assumption that it may be like that with joint degrees in Psych/Crim.
Good luck with the degree. Long journey ahead.

Can anyone recommend ONE university that:
- has any aspect of forensic/criminology but is mostly psychology
- campus based uni
- not in wales and not further than nottingham
- good social life?

thank you! that's so motivating
What unis do you guys recommend, Ive been on my laptop for hours now looking at different unis, I dont really want to go further than nottingham.

Ive updated my list of courses:
Southampton* Psychology
Sussex Psychology
De montfort Psychology and Criminology
Loughborough Psychology
Nottingham Psychology

That list is so much better! I'd still be tempted to swap de Montfort for something else, maybe Portsmouth, Birmingham, Warwick, Royal Holloway?

What uni do you go to? If you dont mind me askiing

I haven't applied for Psychology. I was looking at Psychology degrees before and that's how I know. But I hope I get where I want to be!

the only reason I chose De montfort is as a backup option
And I was considering portsmouth but its not a campus based university! I really want to go to a campus uni

What you going for?

Various Politics Joint Honours, hoping to actually have a career in Politics (btw so jealous of you living in Sheffield Hallam!)

Bit sick of it after 4 and a bit years though . Don't live, just study there.
Oo interesting, being a politician would be cool. Politics is admittedly something I know almost nothing about
