"I did not realize there are so many psychology-related jobs available. It seems there is a much more diverse field of possibilities than I thought."

"I discovered that I did not actually find these assignments to be 'work'--the assignments I was doing were actually things I would use in real life"

"I still don't know what I want to do in the future for my career, but from this class, it showed me there were plenty of options."
