Hmmm... the psych lectures attract so many people the lect. theatres' (and tutorials, & stuff) usually overfilled. You might want to keep that in mind.

esp. when unis are underfunded across the state.

I'm not sure about USyd, but they'd probably be good.

But UNSW is very good in Psyc. :)

Guess I should say hi first.. :wave: Hi!

I'm interested in Psych as well... but I don't do science anymore, and only have general maths. While I don't do science, I do still have an interest in it, and did pretty well at it during upto year 10 (I was just better at humanities than science... :rolleyes: ) Would a bridging course in maths help? Would I be able to handle the course work without having done science in senior high?

Can I do BA/BSc and do Psych in Science?

Cheers!

You guys interested in USyd only?

in UNSW ( :p ) you can do a BSc or BA to do Psych. :) But the BA doesn't have the 4th year option so you have to transfer to BSc/BPsyc/BAdvSc or something like that then.

I don't think there are really any necessary requirements regarding maths skill and science units. No tmuch maths is in Psyc yet, maybe in the scientific methods bits then there will be. But we got the good old calculator to help us. :p

I'm actually leaning more towards New South, but the thread was opened here, so I asked my questions :)

I want to do Psych in Science mainly because I want to do History/Sociology in arts.. and I wanted to do Forensic Pyschology once I finshed, and need the 4 years to do that.. hmm.. I think.

Hey, I know this is a Sydney thread, but I wanted to ask, does anyone know if I'd be able to do Criminology under an arts degree?

Cheers :)

Not with arts at sydney. I didn't even know Sydney offered Criminology. What is criminology anyway... the psychology of criminals?
