Thank you!! And just to confirm... a stats course taught in the psych department would also count for sGPA, right? It's called "Statistics for Behavioral Scientists"

If the description of the course suggests math as the main focus then it could qualify.

Sorry, here is the description: "An introduction to statistics that concentrates on problems from the behavioral sciences. This course provides an introductory overview to the basic statistical concepts and procedures used in experimental research. The focus is on becoming familiar with how to interpret and perform statistical tests, in order to design experiments and interpret their results. It is not a course on mathematical theory; no mathematical skills beyond basic algebra are required. The course is instead intended to provide a basic degree of scientific literacy, with an emphasis on the psychological sciences. In addition to the lectures, students will participate in a mandatory laboratory section that meets once a week. Lab activities will consist primarily of hands-on data analysis using R, applying the concepts introduced in lecture."

Meh, I’d call that borderline however you want to qualify it. If it helps your BCPM then have it as that. Worse that could happen is they take it out.
 
My psych stats qualified for math after verification. Both quarters were PSYCH courses.
 
Psych stats qualified for me and classes labeled as neuro from my school. I guess you'll be sure only till AMCAS verification comes through but usually premed advisors know which courses from their schools are regarded as sciences by AMCAS people so ask away if you'd like to calculate your sGPA by hand for now
