Hello. I am a Foreign Languages and Literature major with a concentration in Spanish. Simply, a B.A. Spanish Major. Since I've had a number of classes that involve studying the different cultures revolving the Hispanic world, has anyone heard of these counting for behavioral science classes? I emailed the school, but I have not received a reply.
Anyone have any information regarding this situation?
Courses that examine culture are humanities courses. The exception being anthropology which is more or less the study of cultures influences on human practices and behavior. The courses that count as humanities are usually either Psychology, Economics, Sociology, Political Science, and Anthropology, with generally medical schools either silently recommending or requiring Sociology and Psychology.
