Hard to tell.

My Psychology teacher thinks it was a one-off, but they may return to the old format or keep new format.

I fudged this exam up last year. Got an A in the mock but U in the exam (luckily my Psych Investigations brought it up to an E, though I suppose that's not really luck per-se).

Just think, whenever you answer an question, there's ALWAYS a right answer....I know, that's an obvious thing to think, but when you say it to yourself, the situation is less stressful.

I'm really panicking now because I think I've forgot everything I've revised. This is not good

What's the difference between old and new format?

Old one is merely ''strengths and weaness of ____ approach'' whereas the new one is ''strengths and weakness of lab study/field study/case study etc using evidence from ___ approach''

I'm not gonna lie... Never felt this stressed. I've done about 9 hours revision today and I feel like I've forgotten everything I did. I'm preparing to fail right now.
