I majored in Philosophy and almost completed a major in psych (just left out some stats and culture papers). I think I would like to do more coursework in psychology. Especially cognitive psychology and neuroscience, but I have to admit that when it comes down to it neuroscience can be incredibly boring.
I'd rather read theories than run experiments.
I'd rather try to come up with a theory that handles the data and comes up with a novel prediction. Let the scientists fetch the data and play with their stats - what does it all mean??? - that is the domain of the philosophers.
