Hello,
I am currently a Senior undergraduate student with a focus on clinical psychology at the University of Washington. After taking some neural focused psychology courses, I've been thinking about switching to Clinical Neuropsychology as a possible future track.
I'm not quite clear, however, on what I should be doing right now to stay on that particular course. Should my focus right now be primarily on clinical psychology or should I look into more behavioral neuroscience classes? What kind of classes should I be taking (i.e. cognitive psychology classes, neuroscience classes, both)?
I also have some concerns research wise. I joined the Honor's program earlier last year and I've been working in a clinical lab that is almost completely unrelated to neuropsychology. Even though I'll be a co-author for two research papers later on, I was wondering whether or not my particular research experience would go against me when I later apply to a grad school or when I later apply to work with a neuropsychology professor.
Best,
KennyK
