well i self teach (do an ICS learning course) and found the main 10 mark / 20 mark questions okay, just when i opened up the booklet and read 'mediating cognitive factors' i seized up!! x

I overall found the exam okay apart from on the 10 mark behaviourist essay, I put some SLT points though :') I got them mixed up a little :P nevermind, I think I have done well nevertheless. I found the little questions good (apart from the study for gender schema.... I was like :| *complete guess*, and the nature-nurture essay, I had no idea what to write about, but I blagged it a little and got majority right How did you do? xxx

Heey! I'm sure you did fine - blagging is always a useful tool ;D Luckily the behaviourist approach is one that im good with :P I blagged the nature/nurture one too dont worry I think i did well, considering i was sh*tting myself this morning haha! Thought it was a nice exam to have....just worried that the Sociology one will be solid now! :P xxx

i wrote the definition of mediating cogn factors is mental processes and a limitation is that it is hard to measure mental processes, not sure if its right thouggggggggggh! xxx

I was really panicking about it. My teacher had been ill so we had a supply teacher for a few weeks leading up to the exam, so I revised as much as I could at home and went into the exam room expecting the worst.
I actually found it really easy. From past exam papers I knew nature nurture was likely to come up, so I liked the essay question on it. The only trouble I had was the cognitive mediating factors one (I got confused between SLT and cognitive). So I think I've done better than I thought I was going to
