Hello,

The choice between economics and psychology is primarily based on your interests, hence career objectives.


Economics is flexible and informing for finance, markets, and public policy. Many colleges offer Economics programs which do not require a math background since they are more theory based and applied economics with less advanced mathematics involved. It can lead to careers in banking, policy-making, consulting, and market analysis, but math might become important in advanced economics courses, so it is something to consider for future studies.


Psychology explores how humans act or is concerned about the mental health of humans. If you realize that you are interested in how people think or how they behave, then you may enjoy a career in therapy, counseling, HR, or research; Psychology is the way to go.


Both fields have rather diverse career paths, but if you tend to be more analytical and concerned with the impact of how things go into society's well-being, then Economics might turn out to be something more worthwhile. Psychology would make perfect sense in understanding what happens within an individual and the mental processes.
