Apply to University.

I am now in my second year of Cegep in Social Sciences and it is time for me to make my University applications, I don't know If I should apply in Psychology or Criminology since I have the R score and the course requirements necessary for both of these programs.

Choice 1 : Apply in psychology.

Choice 2 : Apply in criminology.

Apply in psychology.

I am now presented with a second choice, although the University of Montreal is a good choice for this program, I also meet the requirements for McGill which is one of the best universities in the country what should I do? I applied to both and both of them accepted me.

Choice 1 : Go to McGill in Psychology.

Choice 2 : Go to University of Montreal in psychology.

Apply in criminology.

After doing more research, my first choice is still the University of Montreal which is the only University that offers a program completely focused on psychology. But a new choice presents itself to me. The University of Quebec in Trois Rivières offers a forensic psychology program which focuses more on analysis but it also hosts the CICC which is a research institution for criminology. So now should I choose UQTR or the University of Montreal.

Choice 1 : Choose the University of Montreal in criminology.

Choice 2 : Choose the University of Quebec in Trois-Rivières for forensic psychology.

Go to McGill in Psychology.

Going to McGill means that you have to put in a lot of hard work. Sadly, being a francophone student, the language barrier made it really hard for you to be able to pull off good grades. You ended up failing all of your classes.

Choice 1 : Better luck next time.

Go to University of Montreal in psychology.

So far your classes have been going well, your peers are really nice and supportive regardless of the rumours about the competition and sabotaging within the program. One morning you feel a little bit under the weather and you are debating about whether you should miss your class which is the last one before your final exam or take the pressure and go to your class.

Choice 1 : attend your morning class.

Choice 2 : Miss your class.

Miss your class.

You missed your class in order to rest at home and recover from your sickness but sadly the classmate you asked to give you the course notes gave you falsified ones to hinder your studies. You failed your final exam.

Choice 1 : Better luck next time

Attend your morning class.

Although the headache was killing you, you took the decision to not ruin the progress and straight A's you worked so hard for during the semester and went to class. The class was worthwhile because you ended up getting more knowledge on the structure of your final exam and got the informations necessary. You passed with flying colours.

Choice 1 : Continue your superior studies to get a Phd in psychology.

Choose the University of Montreal in criminology.

You got accepted into the program on your first try and love it so far. You have a team project assigned for the end of your semester and your best friend is in the class. Although you love your friend she never studies, has mediocre grades and uses ChatGPT a lot which makes you skeptical. Some of the classes straight A students want to team up with you too. Who will you choose?

Choice 1 : Do the team work with your best friend.

Choice 2 : Do the team work with a straight A student.

Choose the University of Quebec in Trois-Rivières for forensic psychology.

You ended up dropping out after seeing how the program you chose is way different from criminology.

Choice 1 : Better luck next time

Do the team work with your best friend.

You ended up with an F and have been forbidden from re entering the program for one semester after being flagged for cheating. You were confused until you saw your work and realized all the parts flagged for the use of ChatGPT were the ones your best friend worked on.

Choice 1 : Better luck next time.

Do the team work with a straight A student.

The work went perfectly. Although your best friend was pissed at you, you had an amazing grade and got congratulated by your teacher for your amazing hard work. Seeing your amazing grades and your dedication to research, your teacher recommends that you do a master's in criminology once you are done with your bachelor's degree. You don't know if you should directly enter the working world or do the master's and involve yourself in even more research on a subject you love.

Choice 1 : Apply for a master's degree.

Choice 2 : Go into the working field.

Apply for a master's degree.

Even though the stress and work load for a master's degree is a lot, you still took the risk and you don't regret it one bit. Doing research and learning more about your field makes you feel fulfilled in a way you never knew existed.

Choice 1 : Go back to the beginning

Go into the working field.

Sadly, you took the easy route and ended up working as a parole officer which to others may seem like a lot.But your heart was in the research field and you end up stuck with a dead-end job.

Choice 1 : Better luck next time.

Continue your superior studies to get a Phd in psychology.

Being a psychology student means you either end up with a bachelor's degrees and work as a social worker or work in HR. But a part of you wants to work as a clinical psychologist which means you will have to do superior studies to get a PhD in psychology and work your dream job. You are scared of the stress the PhD will give you and you also feel like you will fall behind compared to your friends if you continue school for an other 6 years. Will you pick the PhD or the working world?

Choice 1 : Get a PhD in psychology.

Choice 2 : Become a social worker.

Get a PhD in psychology.

Throughout your journey as a psychology student there has been a lot of ups and downs. A lot of times you have found yourself on the verge of a meltdown, haunted by stress, assignments and evaluations. You got your PhD after all this time and are now a successful psychologist. You give conferences around the world about your field and couldn't be more happier.

Choice 1 : Go back to the beginning.

Become a social worker.

At first you liked the job. Although the wage was low you felt like you were doing something positive. But the more time passed the more you realized you were stuck in an endless loop of trying to help people in need but sometimes being completely shut down by the same system you worked for. You end up hating it after your 4th year on the job.

Choice 1 : Better luck next time.
