Question by –: Need advice: Should I finish my Associate’s degree?
Im 5 classes away from completing my Associates degree in Psychology (it has taken me forever to complete it but im almost done) but I really dont have an real interest in Psychology anymore (I dont want to get a BA in psy.) Im thinking about getting an certificate to be a paralegal..

Should I complete my associate’s and start a certificate right after? Will I be more marketable if I go and get the certificate?

Im not even sure if i can get some sort of job with an AA in Psyc.

Yes you should complete you AA Degree in Psychology and then go for the Paralegal Cert. Regardless of the vocation you end up being employed, having some form of College Degree on your resume helps increase your value. I have found from over 7 years of experience in the job market that it pays to get a college education in addition to all the certs. With an AA in Psyc, you could land a job in a school as a Counselor at the very least.

Hope this helps.
