I would say Psychology as I take psychology and my friends take sociology and they are always telling me how much work there is and how much they hate it but I do not find that Psychology has a big workload and it is really enjoyable.

I hope this helps :smile:

I personally think sociology is easier :smile:
I don’t think psychology is hard(gonna study it at uni) but just that sociology is easier.
I think you should just pick what you find the most interesting :biggrin:

I currently study both as well as criminology. I’d personally say that psychology is easier. Sociology is such a broad subject, even more so that psychology. Hope this helps :smile:
If you don't like statistics, then sociology is easier

I do statistics as a separate lesson so that definitely isn’t that much of a problem, thx for the help
