. Now, this being said. What difference is it going to make if I were to get a degree in psychology as opposed to getting a General AA and carrying it over to something different?
Ill be honest, my mathematical skills arent that great. But from the flying I have done, ive never had to use anything more than extremely simple algebra.
Cliffs: Should I go for the psychology degree/is it good enough to recieve a seat in fixed wing aircraft?
It seems in my very limited experience.... that the AF loves technical degrees (perhaps for the OTS route?) ... if you were to do the ROTC route it doesn't really matter what degree... having said that... If you are getting a general A.A. degree and transfering to a 4 year... I'm not sure if it matters for the area of concentration for a non-technical major like psychology... if it was say a technical... maybe engineering of some sort... you would be wise to get all of your maths done early. If you aren't that proficient in math, you may want to take a college level math class elective before you take the AFOQT or other sevice aptitude test. You certainly don't have to, but if you need the elective why not?
