2. From the 5 branches of social sciences that are presented, which one interest you the
most and why? (Answer in 3-5 sentences)
- My favorite would be psychology, since it’s a study of the human mind and how it works,
and the fact that the human mind is vast and wide. The right and left part of the brain is
already a huge part of someone’s personality. How the mind shapes as it adapts to its
surroundings. Psychology is a challenging subject, and I like challenges.
