Does Biopsychology count as a science?
AMCAS accepted it for me as a BCMP credit and my biopsych had a psych course number. Just make sure you list it as BCMP
Edit: Looking at the guy above, apparently it depends, so list it as BCMP and if they dont accept it they dont accept it
Also, I just checked and my course was called "Biological Psychology," which might have made it more acceptable

There seems to be multiple answers for this, but I agree with above poster. In general it doesn't hurt to put it as BCMP; it will be changed if it isn't deemed appropriate. Thought this link might shed more insight!

It didn't count for me, but I went through AACOMAS.
AMCAS counted behavioral neuroscience, cognition and sense and perception classes, all with psych prefixes.
