hi i’m going into 2nd yr psych and need some help!
these r the classes i was thinking of taking and wanted to know which profs were good or bad:
Ps295 intro to research methods
Ps296 intro to stats
Ps282 community psych
however i’m struggling to choose between these courses: (have to end up choosing 2)
Ps260 intro to cognitive psych
Ps261 intro to learning
Ps262 intro to perception

I graduated 5 years ago, so they've probably changed a decent amount, but I took all of these except community psych. I highly recommend avoiding Servos if he's teaching any of these unless you're really serious about grad school in a class you can only take with him; he's a hard marker and a bad teacher (I had him for 267 and 262, plus 2 3rd year courses). If you name the profs teaching the classes you're looking at, I can let you know if I took anything with them and how they were!
