Abstract

The paper will discuss the role of critical thinking skills in enhancing the decision making process. The application of critical thinking skills will be described in my decision to return to school and pursue a graduate degree. The discussion will highlight the rationale that led me to select the master’s degree in psychology program at the University of Phoenix.
