Secondary question. Is there a link to get some information about that?
I feel like I really should set up a meeting or something.

That's the psychology undergraduate advisor.

For just general science: http://www.science.mcmaster. ca/main/contacts.html

You can also just drop in for general science, it's located in the lobby of BSB.

You're welcome.

I also forgot to add that the office hours at 9-4 (last time I checked). But usually they don't accept drop-ins until the afternoon, like 1-2. But that's only during a certain time of year, not sure if this is the time but it could well be.

Ah very true, I forgot that Psychology was part of both Science and Social Science.

The difference between majoring in Psych from Science and majoring in it from Social Science isn't very big in terms of what classes you'll end up taking. For first year it will obviously be pretty big, but a lot of the classes you'll take in upper years are the same. So doing the Bio classes is probably a good idea, so you'll have more options for upper year selections.

Otherwise, just take courses that fill your degree requirement for first year Soc Sci, and stuff you're interested in.

Thanks, that is really good to know.
Yeah, the last thing I'd want to have happen is to get to the upper years and not be able to take a course or do something just because I didn't do these Bio classes.
