It really depends on your interest in the subject, unless you love it you won't get a really good grade. This applies to any subject actually.

I found psychology whethr hl or sl to be the easiest IB subject!
So not, i do not know any other subject that would be less riskier

From what I heard from my classmates, HL Psychology is one of the easiest IB's to pass. So I wouldn't worry so much about. I heard you don't need to know psychology before to learn it. Because we experience psychology everyday so it's easier to link to your life.

HL Psychology actually messed me up! I got 7s and 6s on my mock exams, and in the real one I got straight 5's. No idea what happened

I take both English A1 and Psychology at Higher Level and I love them both equally, I plan to get 7's in both, I can just hope (and revise) to achieve my desired grades!

It depends, really, the response is very mixed from each person! Some of them love it and some hate it! Also, you will need a group 3 subject (Economics, Psychology, BM or History) very much regardless of the subject, trust me, it's the one they care the most when you apply to universities, so I would strongly advise you to take Psychology HL, even though it's very time-consuming, it's worth it! (Note: if you're going medicine then you may take english to get higher grades, but then again medicine doesn't require HL english)
