Psychology or Geography?

[Puma60]

So the end of the academic year is near, and I get the choice to drop one of my subjects. Right now I am studying IT, Business, Geography and Psychology and planning on dropping either Geography or Psychology. My problem is, I really don't know which one to drop! I think they are both 'average' subjects.

Basically what im asking is, which subject would be most useful for later on in life?

[woutR]

Drop Psychology obviously. It's for housemothers to be, or at least in Holland it is.

[poehalcho]

drop physchology.
Geography holds much common knowledge, so it's alot more important. psychology is just plain bs D:

If your career goals are to be in any form of management, psychology would be more beneficial than geography.

This! If you would be in any form of management its important that you understand how people around you think.

Cultural or Physical?

If it's highschool you go with what will get you a higher average. If it's cultural geography, it would be a lot better than psychology to learn about how people behave.

Geography definitely. I hate it XD

geography is worthless in the job setting

psychology is important for business relationships, persuasions, deals, etc.

roffle my waffle?

Human geography is culture.

The kind of culture you think you will learn about in psychology (international trade), you learn in human geography. Psychology is good for internal management, but even then, they have business tailored psychology classes that are better suited; and are often considered business classes (eg: business ethics & human resources).

Psychology 101 classes are loosely linked, anything past that is not tangible and as relevant to business.


Edit: decided to post my classes to shed some light on geography

Business Law
Field Ecology
Env & Dev Global Perspective
Human Resources Management
Professional & Business Ethics

As you can see, very business heavy. With my Field Ecology aside, they are all business classes. Env & Dev Global perspective is a geography class. We look at business opportunities and dealing other nations in terms of trade and business. Developing countries are essential to business; it's where you invest and produce. Not learning about 75% of the world, and a huge aspect of the business world, is worth trading off for Freud?

You learn about business relationships and deals in business, economy, and human geography. You learn about persuasion in philosophy and language.

I guess in highschool when you learn about natural resources, population, and national economy that you would get the impression that psychology > geography in terms of business... (lol?) But post secondary, classes are more specific, and all of the business related classes fall in business/economy/philosophy/geography.
