<p>This is kind of off-topic, but how did you like Neuroscience at TIP? I'm taking Ab Psych this year but was really close to choosing Neuroscience.</p>

<p>Neuroscience wasn't necessarily "fun", although we definitely learned a lot. Most of the time was spent on reading, work, research projects, and tests. Some hands on experience and labs would have been nice. I now want to be a neurologist, so the class was overall a great experience!</p>

<p>That's good to hear. I think I might take it next year.
(Also, West is air conditioned, so that should be nice. :P)
Yay TIPsters!
I'm a newbie to the college game, but in my humble opinion your stats are amazing and you have a good shot anywhere.
Good luck!</p>
