OK, so i'm in the process of filling out the Texas A&M application and it asks what if any significant research activities I have. I did neuroscience research in undergrad but it was course credit and is on my transcript. Should I still list it separately in the research section?

i would. if it is research it doesnt matter if you got paid or if it was for credit. i know a lot of people (including myself) who got credit because most PIs like to start people on credit before they hire them for the whole year. Even if it is already on your transcript it may not be obvious. My credit was something under an upperlevel bio course, I forgot what it was titled. But you dont want research going overlooked

Definitely add it! It's only going to show up on your transcript as a course name, number, and grade/pass/fail. I have no doubt that the adcoms are actually interested in what you did.
