This article is the result of investigations that started during the Master´s degree research and that were methodologically oriented by the work of Ecléa Bosi and José Moura Gonçalves Filho, whose focus is the memories of militant students. One of the themes most emphatically remembered was the relation between Psychology and ideology. During under graduation, spaces and university militancy interests were sometimes radically antagonistic to the course, the classes and even lassmates and professors; at other times, militancy and Psychology were joined in experience and political practice. Through the memories of militant students, analyzing their history since the beginning of university until the first years after under graduation, we intend to understand better the anxieties of those who try to integrate professional practice to social commitment. This way we intend to contribute for the reflection on the psychologist professional preparation, considering that this preparation may lead to a critical thought and a transformational action, or, on the contrary, may lead to a confirmation of social inequality.
