I took Cognitive Neuroscience at Stanford in the winter. It was probably the most difficult class I’ve taken. Something about it was just really hard for me to grasp. Maybe it’s because I just went into it thinking, I’m not much of a science guy. The whole thing was less cognitive and more neuroscience than I expected. If anything, the class gave me an appreciation for what a piece of work the human brain is.
