Psychology at uni

Is psychology a bad course to do for uni? What careers can it open doors to? I just keep hearing people complain about the course and I don’t know what to do I don’t want to regret it too please can someone give me advice.
Should I do a combined course or just psychology?

It’s quite a versatile degree. You can do anything with it . I know many that have done a psychology degree then move on to law.

It’s a respected degree for sure as long as you go to a good uni and get a good degree.

The counter argument comes from employability rates from psychology degrees etc. Some may say do law or economics instead , for example. As employers may respect them more. But not 100% sure on this as it depends on what you do.

A combined course always keeps options open. Like law with psychology for example is one.
But all in all ,if you enjoy it and get a good degree you will fine.
