Neuropsychology

I want to finish my schooling to become a neuropsychologist. I’m unclear what classes for bachelors and then which schools would be my best options. I have a high interest in this topic so I want to take classes that keep my interest in the topic as well as stay away from math 😂 Any advice?

For bachelors classes you’d wanna stick in psychology, biology or a related field! Math is typically somewhat involved when looking at practical sciences but it shouldn’t be the wooooorst if you stick in field related to psychology instead of leaning towards a physical science

Typically, you need a doctorate in psychology with a focus on neuropsychology. I'd encourage you to look at those graduate school programs and see the pre-req classes they ask. That way you'll know what to take so you can be competitive for application. Shoot me a private message if you have additional questions

@Kritzia yes 100% on the doctoral. I was looking into NIU and they said that a bachelors in science or arts would be fine to get into their program. I just feel like arts is so generic and science I saw the math involved and I was like 👀👀😩 lol

Cffff

I’m getting my doctorate in clinical psychology with a focus in neuropsychology right now! I went to Arizona State University where they offer a bachelor’s degree in neuroscience. I would totally recommend it! They offer it online too.

@Ace I was looking at that school too, good to know! Where are you getting your doctorate? ASU is about $4,000 more per year than the school more local to me but I feel like they have more flexibility on online classes whereas my local school offers only some online to my understanding.

Hi! I just graduated from George Mason University (Fairfax,VA) with a B.S. in Psychology with a concentration in Neuroscience! They also offer a Neuroscience B.S. as well! You can major in Psychology and choose a concentration if you’d like or you can just got for the Neuropsychology degree in Bachelors! Either way, I had to take a lot of math( lots of statistics and advanced math), basic English, some electives, mostly lots of neuroscience courses (sensation, perception, and processing.), biopsychology, clinical psychology, developmental psychology, etc
