take Latin! you’d be amazed at how it will help you with the scientific names in your many classes (particularly biology). I found it even helped in English classes

Obviously, take anything psychology-related (sociology, peer counseling, etc.). Biology plays a big part in psychology, so learn all of that you can. But as far as skills you need from other diciplines, psychology will feel like a blend of science and history. While you won’t have to actually know any history, a lot of writing for psych classes is similar to writing history papers in the way that you organize and prove facts. You will be using methods of experimentation from your science experience. If Statistics is offered in high school (you may have to wait for college for that), be sure to take it–you don’t want to do like most people and first hear of a chi-squared table two weeks before your lab report is due.

I minored in Psychology in college.

In High School, I took classes in Psychology and Sociology that were very helpful.

pycholoogy should be offerred at most high schools… my friend took pych in high school.. and is again taking the class here in college… just take psych in high school if they have it.. but if they dont… then look for comunity colleges in your area that offer it to high school students… its usually free for a high school student to take a class at a comunity college that is somewhat associated with your high school.. but most high schools do offer psychoogy….. just talk to your counsler if you need more help
