I need your help. Im a senior in college majoring in psychology. Long story short, i dont enjoy my major i chose it without thinking bout the long term, and in a rush and im miserable. When i realized the mess i was in it was too late to change it. (Im currently 2 classes away from graduating) i need help in putting it all together and figuring out what to do after i graduate.
I have recently developed this interest in women's reproductive rights and fighting for equality and workplace fairness. I just dont know what else to do besides law with this
Interest any suggestions?
I also have various interests idk if thats a good thing or a bad thing i feel all over the place. I took an accounting class before and liked it very much. I liked the problem solving concept of it. I also want to do some sort of event planning/marketing. Any suggestions in getting my life in order? Please help!
Or if anyone has had experience in these field what can you tell me
About them?

It sounds like the panic is setting in with graduation right around the corner. Instead of more school, I would recommend getting some experience first in a job. Spend a few years in the workforce and then figure out where you want to go. Many companies will pick up at least part of your tab for grad school.
Perhaps you just need a job doing anything until you can figure out what you want to do--there is no sense in wasting more time and money. Perhaps a graduate degree in some kind of social services or an MPA with a non-profit concentration if you want to consider a job with women's resource centers, domestic violence shelters, victim advocacy, etc.
One option would be to go to law school, but in general, only those graduating from T14 law schools are having an easy time finding work. Unless you can score exceptionally high on the LSAT, you aren't getting into a top law school with that GPA. In the meantime, you might be able to find work in a social services organization that deals with women's issues. A degree in psychology is actually desired for that type of work.
She'd have to kill the LSAT to be lucky enough to get into a top 100; a T14 is out of the question. If she does well, she can go 100K in debt to attend a tier 4 school.
The fact that you're just now figuring out you don't like your major and you're picking from several bad choices doesn't sound like a promising career awaits you.
"women's reproductive rights and fighting for equality and workplace fairness." is not a career. Ironically, if you go this route, the only way you'll get by is by finding a husband to provide for you.
OP, don't listen to any of these posters. I would suggest applying for law school or getting a few years of work experience at a non profit and go from there (grad school etc.).

Why, exactly, would you suggest law school? Without a clear direction, what is the benefit of a tier 4 law school education and amassing 75K-100K in debt?
