Is a Background in Physics Necessary for Understanding Biological Psychology?

[Tribo]

Hi everybody, it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. I don't actually speak fluent French but am working on it, haha, Currently, I'm in a college majoring in chemical engineering but have lately been thinking of switching to psychology and biology or physics. I find biological psychology fascinating, but the more I learn about it the more convinced I am that I should have (at least) some basic knowledge in physics. I never took the course in high school so I'm attempting to rectify that now. I think this site will be a lot of help to me and I'm glad to have found it. Thanks for your time!

Ooo, psychology. Interesting subject. I took this course when I first started at Massey University: http://www.massey.ac.nz/massey/learning/departments/school-of-psychology/paper-offerings/undergraduate-papers/paper.cfm?paper_code=175101&paper_offering_id=1210518&study_year=2015 (but back in 2010)
