Best AS levels to prepare for Psychology at uni? Apart from sciences and Maths!
I am currently studying AS business, psych and sociology however I cannot apply to do psychology at uni because of business. I'll be taking psychology an sociology to A2. What other subjects for AS should I take that unis will like when I apply for psychology ? No sciences or Maths please, I really dislike them

Im pretty sure you can do psychology at most unis with those a levels. Some places require either one maths/science subject. If you don't like science though the more social sciency psychology degrees which you may prefer are open to you.
Anyway, any (decent) essay writing subject will be useful. English lit or language, history, R.E., philosophy, etc. etc. -

I was told English, because of the amount of essay writing and reports you'll be doing.
However take that with caution; that was the advice I was given when I had decided I wanted to do Psychology at uni, and now I'm doing English instead
Oh yeah, and Philosophy/Philosophy+ethics. There's quite a bit of overlap between these, as psychology was basically founded upon philosophy.Last edited by sammy-lou; 01-06-2012 at 01:49.
