Last Day of the First Sem: Learnings from the Semester that Flew By

Image
3 months and 21 days. That was the duration of my first semester in Christ. It was a roller coaster, with all its ups and downs, but fortunately, no head-spinning and throwing up took place. As I realized that this semester was done, I thought of listing the many things that this institution, my course, my professors, and my class taught me.  The very, very vast difference between Engineering and Psychology. The transformation from learning about the working of a circuit, to learning about how cognition, behavior, and emotion, affect the human being. (special mention: the unconscious). The difference between sitting in an undergraduate and a postgraduate class.  Making people understand that learning psychology doesn’t translate to “Hey, I can read your mind.” The significance of Sigmund Freud. ETHICS. APA and ACA Code of Ethics is the guiding force. Every time one feels that one is an ethical issues expert, a new case is thrown in one’s face to help understand otherwise.
