Conversation Between Noodlzzz and adamned

Watching a couple oft them on eBay. What should I do? Am intrigued...

hey, did you manage to get a hold of any of the textbooks? Also, there's something I think you should do!

You should be able to get all of them from the UCL Science Library. The only textbook really worth buying would be the Concepts and Methods one, Psychology: The Science of Mind and Behaviour. You won't need a textbook for statistics, but I think the Easy Statistics in Psychology book is great and cheap, so it's worth getting.

Sorry to bother you again, but what books do I need/reccomended for first year?

Thank you! I love social psych, looking forward to that module! Thank you for all your help, I guess I'll see you around the department in a couple of months!

hmm there wasn't a politics option available for my year, but there were philosophy modules (including political philosophy though). nah you're stuck with the psych ones -lab reports, statistics, concepts & methods (basically a-level stuff), individual differences, memory & decision-making, social psych- and it's only in third year we are allowed to specialise. for social psych in first year you'll have Daniel Richardson, the guy in the hat from this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5g4_v4JStOU

I think I want to take philosophy and politics. It was on the evolutionary adapation of religion which turned out to be a lot of fun! Do you get any choice which psych modules you can take? Thanks for the help by the way!

I did pharmacology and economics as my optional courses. Any idea what you wanna take? Nah you won't need a calculator because any calculations you do will be on the software we use (Minitab). ooo what was the extended project on?

I did psychology, sociology, philosophy & ethics and an extended project in psych. Yes do I have a question, will I need a scientific calculator for stats? And what electives did you do? Cheers

ye I just finished first year of psych there. what did you study for A Level? also, feel free to ask any questions about the course etc.
