Neuropsychologist are mainly focused on the biological side and brain (neuro) of psychology. You’ll work with MRI scanners, EEG’s etc.

Psychology is a must. Biology is of very high use and will definitely boost your uni application. For your last one, subjects such as chemistry (for the biochemistry) or English (for the essay and report writing skills you’ll need) will be useful.
