Further and psych help with biomed?

[Nomvalt]

Does Further Maths and Psychology help in any way to Biomedicine at Melbourne University?

[vexx]

not really considering that neither psychology or very basic maths is in that course.
if you went there next year there is an introduction mathmatics, which is similar to methods if i'm not mistaken?
but yeah, no real connections between those subjects and the subjects in biomed:P

Apparently in Biomed you need to do Calculus 1, which is "spesh in a semester".

^ yeah thats starting in 2011, or is it starting next year? since they are removing the intro course now that math methods is compulsory.

Basic knowledge of statistical analysis from Further and research designs from Psych might help with the subject Experimental Design and Data Analysis. I'd assume some of the neurosciencey stuff from psych may show up as well, but you won't be at any great advantage.

Yeah I'm in biomed at the moment and the first half of EDDA was very similar to further and the probability section of methods.
