I’m still in high school right now. But after school I want to learn neuroscience for my undergrad and grad and then a PhD in neurophysics. Is what I am doing right? please suggest some colleges for me to get started with.
And I want to go to a place where I can be a little relaxed and not too burdened.
I think it’s been explained to you on the international student thread. You need a school with solid physics and biology departments. There is probably at least a thousand schools in the US that offer outstanding physics and biology studies. We can’t help you unless you tell us how much you can afford, and where you would like to study – geographic region, size of school, urban/suburban/rural, etc.
Remember, as an international student your #1 concern will be money. If your parents can’t pay $50,000+ per year, then you will need to apply to those schools that offer significant financial aid. And that is very, very difficult to find - you will be competing for that money against accomplished, top students from around the world.
Money doesn’t matter actually we can manage.
What does that mean? Does that mean that your family is wealthy and can afford to pay for a $60,000 per year college price tag? Or does that mean that your family hasn’t really discussed college finances on some vague idea that it’ll all work out and you’ll be able to manage the payments? Because if it’s the latter, you may be disappointed in April, and nobody wants that for you!
You can major in biology and physics, or you can major in neuroscience and physics (or major in one and minor in the other, or create a student-designed major in neurophysics).
Also…there aren’t any PhD programs in “neurophysics.” Most likely, what you would do is get a PhD in physics or in neuroscience (or a related field, like psychology or biology) at a place where there are professors doing research in neurophysics. An example of this is like UCLA - which has a center for neurophysics but does not have a neurophysics PhD program. The students in the center are getting their PhDs in neuroscience, physics, bioengineering, computer science or psychology.
Some schools are $75K/year and up.
So you want a school you can breeze through while studying physics and biology?
^That’s not what the OP said - just a school at which they could be a little relaxed and not too burdened. It’s not out of the ordinary or bad for a student to want to attend a school where they aren’t overly pressured or stressed out - you can get an excellent education without being pushed to your limits 24/7.
Without more information about your qualifications and the types of schools you are interested in, this is an impossible question to answer.
Here’s a list of some very good places to study undergraduate neuroscience, but I have no idea if you are a good candidate for any of them.
