...year heralds the celebrated one-on-one junior tutorial. It’s essential to select a tutor whose interests and personality complement your own, so interviewing candidates is a must (feels good to interview, and reject, the jerk who put your sophomore paper up for review). If you pick correctly, you’ll land a tutor who will invite you up to her flat and stuff you with crumpets, Oolong, and glorious, glorious knowledge. If you’re unlucky (or lazy) you will wind up with a disgruntled, underfed grad student who’d rather heat...

But no sir, psychology is not all about learning how to get your roomie to pick up his damn socks and lulling the quasi-hot girl in section into your not-so-much-loving-as-psychologically-manipulative arms. You’re going to learn some neuroanatomy, a little developmental psychology, and some Siggy “I’m Largely Irrelevant, But Will...
