Would neuropsychology, behavioral neuroscience and psych stats be counted as BCPM science gpa?

Depends on the content of the course. Going off of just the names, I'd say pysch stats would pass as math really easily. Don't know about behavioral neuroscience. Neuro psych is probably the least likely out of all three to pass as bio.

I classified psych stats as math and behavioral neurosci as non-BCPM and AMCAS accepted it like that. Honestly, it can go either way so just classify it however you want. Worst thing that happens is that AMCAS changes it.

Also, Search button is your friend since this question has already been asked many times this cycle.

I had the same question: Would Psych stats titled Foundations of Research methods and statistics pass as math?

I also classified psych stats as math without any issues - I think this is pretty standard at this point

I listed my Human Neuropsychology and Behavior and Brain Development course under biology and it got approved my AMCAS.

I feel like the reviewer you get makes all the difference in the world. I have a few friends whose reviewer was super strict and reclassified 6-7 psych classes. On the other hand, I have a friend who got away with classifying her intro econ courses (not econ stats) as math since she had a pretty chill reviewer.

Wait what? Like microeconomics?

Yep. Wasn't even econ stats. Just intro to macroecon and intro to microecon. Like all that supply/demand stuff, puts/calls, world economics, investment principles, excludable/rival goods, GDP, etc. At most, there's basic algebra involved in any of that. Guess she really wanted to boost her sGPA.
