Neuroscience units are listed under the physiology section of the handbook, so I'm guessing that they might contribute to a physiology major as well. Neuroscience/neurology is just a specialisation within the general study of physiology and so is 'closer' to it. Since you can only study neuroscience from third year, and you are only entering second year, deciding between neuroscience and pharmacology shouldn't be an issue yet. Just take both PHSI and PCOL units this year, and you will still have all your options available in third year (and choose your major then), and also find out for yourself what pharmacology is all about and it's level of difficulty.
