Hi,
I'm about to oick my subjects but don't know which is better. I wanted to choose sociology but some people I know said was boring and psychology is more interesting.
Thoughts?

I think it depends on the individual. I took both but I really enjoyed both of them equally. Psychology is to with why people behaviour in certain ways and the studies behind it where as sociology is to do with theories (Marxist, feminist etc) and how their view points affect society and the different class systems, gender etc.
Sociology has longer mark essays (30 and 20) but you’ll only get one or 2 or they’ll be half essays but psychology has shorter marks (16) but you can get 3 or 4 and half essays.
It just depends on what you prefer and what you want to do after sixth form. Hope that helps!

hello,
so i do a level sociology and i’m currently in year 13. in my opinion, if you enjoy subjects like english and history then a level sociology is for you. but if you prefer subjects like maths and science then a level psychology is for u. this is what someone told me which helped me pick sociology as i knew i preferred english and history.
hope this helps

i prefer maths and english which one should i pick 😭
