Subjects needed..
by: Anonymous

Hey.
Well I too am very interested in the study of psychology and posed the question to a number of people and recently asked a university what they would reccommend. They suggest; Biology (to understand the biological side and also for the neuro unit they study), psychology (if your school offers it), statistics (there are lots of data you need to be able to process) and english (for communication skills). Hope this helps!! <>
