My B.A. was in psychology. I could be sensitive about people ragging on psychology, but I'm not. Everyone in my college was required to take grad record exams. The department was built around its counselling program, and nearly everyone failed the GREs miserably.
Experimental Psychology is a young science, but it can be legitimate. It's just rare.
Hell, you can rag on psychology all you want, I got tired of listening to other people's problems (counselling was all I could find) so changed to CS 18 years ago. Now I'm getting sick of that so I'm considering going into biology next. If that doesn't work out I'll start my own religion.
