Anyone here major in psychology?
How much time is generally spent doing homework/studying?
I work full-time and the company I work for is going to pay for my higher education, so I want to know what I'm getting into. I'm not really going to college to learn anything desu, just going there to get a degree.
It's honestly piss easy. That said, I AM comparing it to my law classes.

Good to know, I actually meant to say I'm not going to college to learn anything /useful/.
GL on your bar exam though.
How much time did you usually spend doing assignments?

It really varies from class to class. Some only have a couple of tests, others have tests and assignments, and one I took had quizzes every week which counted towards your grade.
Psych is piss easy but when it's your main degree there is a lot of busywork. Projects aren't hard but they're long, studies aren't hard but they're long, etc.
This is a UK perspective at least. Over here, "easy" subjects tend to have comparatively higher workloads to balance out with the lack of difficulty (but no-one, ever, will admit it).
If your job is providing the funding/time, have you considered pursuing something that will further your career? In the US there are many niche and specialised degrees that are designed around business life, and the UK has a handful (far less though) too.
If you're set on an "easy" degree, psych probably is your best shout. Avoid the biological credits where you can - they're always the hardest. If you're feeling academically brave, tougher humanities (like philosophy or politics) tend to have far lighter workloads, but the tradeoff is the content and skill required tends to be much harder.

10-15 hours a week, about to receive my Bsc with honors.

If it is just any degree, take social psychology courses: easy out of easy.

Lol, biological and neuropsy is piss easy just as well. My experience is that cognitive psy tend to be hardest.
Whats the point in getting something easy if you can get a free education and actually learn something? Just seemsnlike a waste desu senpai
