Just Say No to Abuse Declaring War on Terrorism. Dear Folks, In response to your desire to learn more about forensic psychology, one thing you may need to keep in mind is the sickness that you will observe in many, many criminal behavior patterns. You will need to be able to go into their minds with a clear head and perceive their rationalization for their actions. This can be a very mentally abusive thing to put yourself through. It's hard to be objective and non-judgmental at the same time while placing your own values on the back burner.
Perspective is as important as thick skin.
I am extremely interested in the field of forensic psychology. A word of caution is that a BA in psych is a highly unmarketable degree. For forensics you'll need at least a masters. I am soo scared about what to do in a year when I gradute. I can't even get him to help me apply to schools.
