Student essay written in en (native language: French, CEFR level: B2, field of study: Sciences humaines et sociales)

I choose to study psychology with a lot of reflection. It started in "collge", I wanted to be a forensic scientist. It is someone who searches for evidence on a crime scene and then analyses them in a lab. My grades in science and math arriving in highschool were super bad so I had to give up this wish and to think about something else. Nevertheless, I still wanted to work in the police, I wanted to solve crime or at least help solve it. In addition, I started being interested in the comprehension of the mind, here the criminal mind by watching series like "Mind Hunter" or documentaries on Netflix. Thanks to that, I knew that I wanted to study psychology.
Later on, during my last year of highschool, we worked on the research of Alex Dupont in philosophy and I really catch up. I was thrilled to have my first touch on some psychology work and I was sure that I was going to ask that "matire" on parcousup.
In addition, it was 3 years that I was practicing theatre and I loved understanding how the characters worked, their thoughts and personalities. I knew that, that part of acting was important for a work in psychology. As a matter of fact, always loved understanding why people act in a certain way or another.
All of those explications mixed together explain why I choosed to study psychology. Now, I'm happy to learn about it. I'm finishing my Licence and asking for a master in psychopathology. I'm glad I made that choice and I want to make it my job.
