Surely its quite easy to half the amount of revision needed for this exam because it is very unlikely they'll repeat the topics from jan 11 and june 10 as they are on such specific things?

Same! I mean the questions are so specific, on 1 topic when theres like 7 topics to choose from. Not doing more revision than necessary!

exactly! tbh I doubt they'll repeat anything because they haven't done that yet! ah fingers crossed :smile:
But at AS they repeated the same essay question two years in a row because it wasn't answered properly before :frown: I am beginning to despise this subject again :smile:

PSYA4 on monday, the joys. Best of luck with yours


Good luck with yours too! I'm eager to repay the debt so if you need anything... I don't have a nice set of condensed revision notes like yours but I do have ppts, diagrams, essays etc

For Intelligence,
Can they ask us to explain both Psychodymanic AND Information Processing Theories in one question, or will they be seperate?

Evolutionary Explanations of Food Preference has never come up.. just saying! Although they could very easily just be sly and repeat a question :frown:
Anything you're 100% not even bothering to revise from these topics..

1. Eating Behaviour
2. Aggression
3. Biological Rhythms

Such as Neural Mechanisms from 1. as it came up in January? :/ Or are you just revising everything?!

my predictions are :

sleep - consequences of disrupting bio rhythms
aggression - group display or neural and hormonal mechanisms
eating behaviour - evolutionary exp of food preference

but tbh I could be wrong :\

What grade do you need from this exam? I need a high B/A and I'm really scared about missing things from my revision.. but surely they won't ask us what they asked in Jan 11? What do you think is gonna come up from any of these:

Eating Behaviours
Aggression
Biological Rhythms

Thanks! :smile:
(you've already answered this now never mind! :smile: )

I wish they didnt make the topics so broad! ... ah well I think I will take a gamble and focus on Evolutionary theory while spreading over the rest in less detail :redface:
