Hi @aneesh7,

It is great you want to do some reading around your subjects. I am a final year Psychology student so I can/t say much about your other subjects unfortunately.

Psychology wise, I would recommend starting off with reading a variety of articles (designed for anyone to read) to see which subjects/topics you are naturally drawn to. I would then recommend identifying the concepts in the ones you like for example if you are reading an article about why we obey authority then you might look up research articles on google scholar using terminology such as 'obedience', 'authority' etc.

There is usually a lot of jargon used in these articles so dont beat yourself up if you do not understand what they are saying straight away!

Talk to your teachers about what they would recommend too!

I hope this helps and good luck with your a-levels! :smile:
