Applying to Trinity probably as a Psych major, Any tips/suggestions? Thanks!

Your stats look great. Why are you interested in psychology? Your ECs seem more aligned with neuroscience instead?

I second that. Neuroscience =/= psychology. Or at least the physiological type of coursework that I’m thinking of.

you’re right @SATurdays and @sgopal2, i do not know why i put psychology down initially…neuroscience is the major i’m putting down. Any tips or suggestions!
