Psych, Neurosci, Behav with Music Cognition Specialization
Like many other first years I'm stressing over a second year program @[email protected] I've taken a great interest for PNB w/ Music Cog specialization, but I really would like to know more about it. I was wondering if anyone on MI was in this program, or knows anyone in program, so I can know more about how it actually is?

I'm looking to do a minor in Biochem as well, and today when I went to the PNB info session they told me 1) level 2 is really hard, 2) orgo chem is horrible (which I'm sure everyone has heard). Quite obviously this scared me off quite a bit.

If anyone could shed any light on the situation I would be ever so grateful!

Don't be scared of a minor because someone said its hard. The whole point of a minor is to do courses you enjoy. If hardness scares you, maybe you don't enjoy it all that much.

As for Mus Cog, I'd recommend going on the Mac calender, finding out the courses that make it different from H Psych and checking out the outlines.

Just want to point out that if you want to do a difficult minor, then perhaps Spring/Summer terms will be the your best choice. Shifting Orgo to Spring/Summer will let you focus more on it and not having it stress you out while doing your normal program.

Did you participate in the Reading Week DJ event? The one where you had to pay some money in order to receive DJ lesson while involve in the Music Recognition experiment they had set up?
