Got to say, it's been interesting sometimes and boring most of the time :b but i'm glad it's done and i'm not taking it to uni level.

I want to know what I got already. I'll just keep wondering..

My God same!!! It's definitely been interesting :P was pretty boring doing some relationships stuff and a controversy or two! I'm combining Psych with History so I'll be able to mix things up a bit :smile:

In PY3 and PY4 are any of the questions set as in PY1 and PY2 and then just a few come up?

What d'ya mean set as in PY1 and PY2?

PY3 is made up of two sections; one where you're given details about an experiment and have to answer questions about it- so you pretty much need to learn a couple pages worth of information and be able to apply it to a situation; the other section is probably more like PY1/2 because there are 5 (I think it's 5 at least) possible questions but only 3 will come up and only 2 need to be answered. So as in PY2 you're suppose to learn the answer for pretty much all of them but only a few will actually come up. These questions are more of a discusssion rather than the recall in PY2.

PY4 is similar to PY2 but harder. In PY4 you have 1 compulsory section and then 3 further sections of your college's choice and these will be based around different areas in psychology- each section will have 5 possilbe question (could be 6 aha I literally have forgot everything now) and you're suppose to know how to answer all of them as only one will come up. These are much longer though and require a lot more evaluation of a range of studies in relation to the question.

That's a (hopefully accurate) summary of PY3 and 4- pretty much an over complicated answer to what I thought your question was aha :wink:

. Sort of evacuated all psychology information from my brain after the last exam so anyone feel free to correct me if I have done anything wrong.

Hello all

Not long started A2 psychology, just wondering if anyone has any resources they would be able to let me have :biggrin:

Anything for py3 would be great and were studying; forensic, sport and relationships for py4, so if anyone has any resources for any of those it would be appreciated, thanks :smile:

Hi guys,

Since you're all currently studying psychology.... I was wondering if you wouldn't mind completeing this short Sport Psychology online survey on (for a PhD project) mental health and well-being related to diet and mood across the UK. It's completely anonymous & confidential http://tinyurl.com/ED-DepGeneral

More information about the study, what it is investigating and what the surveys entail can be found www.survey.stuartholliday.com/

Thanks in advance

If you send Miracle Day a private message he may still have relationships and forensic essays. I sent him my forensic essays to him, I haven't got mine anymore due to a new lap top. Best of luck
