aww me to! good luck :smile:

are you doing questions 1, 5 and 11? or is relationships a total different section? i have to do relationships with parents and peers as part of adolescence, i miss the as questions where you could choose an essay you knew the most on, i have a feeling altruism may come up because it hasn't for a few years and maybe disrupting biological rhythms, personality is one of my strong ones, adolescence im struggling with

I'm doing AQA (A) with questions 3, 5 and 15.

I'm not really too worried, I've worked pretty damn hard.

I'm doing the same as you, and I'm dreading it. Although I've got nobody to blame except myself because of lack of revision. There's just too much to remember. I get pissed off when people say Psychology is an easy subject because they do something like Physics and think they're Albert Einstein. My folder is just jam-packed with sheets and booklets and they're walking round with a folder half that size. Hmm. :s-smilie:

I can't wait for Tuesday to be over, my Psychology teacher thinks a celebration of finishing the exam is an afternoon of watching Wire In the Blood. :s-smilie:

I got AAD at AS in my three Psychology exams (I re-sat the D one last week and think I done pretty well so that could be AAB) and in the coursework I am expected to get an A so in these two A2 exams, what is the lowest grade/score I could get to ensure a C/D overall at A2?

3 subjects? what happens if the stuf you have learnt doesnt come up? or are they sections with different parts to them, like we have 3 parts but 3 modules within each part and there will b a essay on any of the 3 modules, so 3 essays altogether if that makes sense?

I've only been taught 3 modules as well: Relationships, Attention and Personality Devleopment. There's 3 sub-topics in each module, and there will be and essay on one of the three sub-topics.

I'm so worried becuase obviously I'm not going to be able to choose a question, so if something comes up that I don't know too well I'm screwed. I'm cramming this weekend!

same here! i thought every1 meant they had only been taught 3 sub topics i got worried then! i think every school has done 3 different modules, i'm so scared one will come up i don't know much about! wish we could pick between two like the other exams, but the amount we have for just the 3 modules i dont think we could possibly learn the others in the time we have
