To freshmen psych majors: Take stats seriously!

I'm a junior now and I wish someone had told me freshman year: modern psychology is HEAVILY statistics-based. If you want to do research or go to grad school, you need strong quantitative skills. Don't skip stats or research methods thinking psychology is all about therapy and feelings.

Research opportunities as an undergrad?

I'm really interested in cognitive neuroscience research but I'm not sure how to get started. Should I cold email professors? What should I include in my email? Do I need prior research experience to get started? Would love to hear from anyone who's been through this process.
