i took a number of upper division psych courses in undergrad which I feel are appropriate to designate under BIOLOGY on amcas based on the course content (psych courses are very science based at my undergrad)

1. perceptual development

2. intro to health psychology

3. cognitive psychology

4. research in developmental psychology

do you guys think its worth trying to list them as bio? and also if amcas corrects them as non-bcpm what would be the consequences to my application??
 
I listed some neuropsych courses as bio and it was fine! There shouldn't be consequences even if they do change them back.

If it's any type of psych course (even if it's science/biology based), I think maybe you should just list it as a psych/behavioral science course. I also took some neuropsych and pharmacology courses like someone else in this thread, I still listed them as psych because that's what it is. Just my two cents though.
