They have the same in Psychology.

That’s interesting, I haven’t seen that yet!

But even the BAs took 3 stats classes including econometrics so I wouldn’t say they were soft on modeling.

I doubt most university students could pass an econometrics class.

Especially in Masters Programs. MA or MS in Psychology.

Idk, I’m still ticked I didn’t get a BS for my Philosophy degree. Oh, wait...

I appreciate that. I thought he also started out condescending and I didn't appreciate it. I tried to respond by explaining in more detail precisely what my definition of debt monetization was with the hopes that he would come back and say okay well that's not really debt monetization that's called something else and debt monetization is really this and the difference between what you call that monetization and what is true debt monetization is such and such. but the last the conversation did not proceed that way. Looks like he has since blocked me and now has stated that if I don't know what MMT means that I'm talking out by rear end. In which case maybe the poop emoji was the correct one to respond with. I probably should have picked the unicorn emoji instead. Live and learn.

I took some philosophy classes. I couldn’t stand it though. I had all As but it made me ill to listen to some of the lectures. I think that’s probably a personality flaw. 😂

Sounds like you got the full experience

If you want really dry stuff, take propositional calculus.

Deductive logic, wew.

@blueorbit a MA would be more inline with Counseling and MS more with Research or Teaching.

Real analysis or topology?

Less math.

(I am 100% joking, I think everyone should take at least one philosophy class 😉

I took enough that they said if I took 2 more I would be awarded a second Bachelors degree.

@Gypsy, you just advanced to level 6!

And I still passed.

Meaning I passed on the second degree.

The Cost of Framing can get expensive!....lol

It’s highly subjective in how it’s taught, which is unfortunate but necessary - much more professor-dependent than content-dependent

Nothing in relation to the cost of the degree itself, tbh

It's like $200-$400 to $40 000+

That makes a lot of sense to me, thank you! I’m guessing research and experiment procedures and controls and other hard science approaches are part of the MS curriculum.

Agree. I was lucky enough to receive a Fellowship.

And most degrees will be like $120 000+

That would only leave me with $200 after this stimulus package

Yes heavy on Math and Statistics.

It was just difficult to read Marx seriously and then go do economics homework. The only classes I liked were eastern philosophy classes which really could have been religious classes. Also the intro classes where we read Humes and Locke. I didn’t care for Kant, Hegel, etc. I thought it was interesting how they thought but also so impractical. I went to school when I was 27 so I wasn’t as abstract as most of the other students.

Marx had quite a few valid critiques of capitalism, it perhaps saved capitalism in the long run.

Psychology is probably the most well respected social science in economics. The least is def sociology. I think sociology and economics are in a Cold War of sorts.

And it's the best approach to reading Marx in my opinion. Have to take it with a grain of salt.

Sure, I read Marx on my own and liked some of it. But like you said, the professor dictates the course. So if they say we are gonna waste a term on labor theory of value .... well that’s what we are doing.

Maybe @blueorbit said that, either way points the same.

I just find it ironic that Marx is the one that perhaps saved capitalism and prevented bastardized authoritarian versions of his vision from overtaking every economy in the world.

A Psychiatrist may disagree with you!....lol

A psychiatrist isn't a social scientist.

Every psychiatrist I know is wrong.

They would be very angry if you suggested otherwise.

Don’t psychiatrists deal with medicine? I am not familiar with psychiatry tbh.

Diagnosis and treatment yes.
