If i got 98ums and 95ums on PSYA1 and PSYA2 what I do I need to get on psya3 and 4 to get an A overall?

98 + 95 = 193

320 - 193 = 127

127 / 2 = 63.5

You need low-mid Cs to get an A overall

Well done!

If the question says evaluate biological therapies for schizophrenia do you need to evaluate two Since it's plural ??

For example you evaluate antipsychotics and electroconvulsive therapy? In June 2015 the non replacement paper they asked to outline one biological therapies for schizophrenia and then they asked to evaluate the biological therapies for schizophrenia ?? 🙄🙄

If I got a B last year, like just on the 70% (68 on PSYA1 and 72 on PSYA2), what would I need to get in PSYA3 and PSYA4 to get an A this year?

noo its just a separate point

This is confusing me, Im saying that in the psycho dynamic approach they is the notion that if mothers are uncaring these can result in shizophrenia, As an A02 POINT I can use expressed emotion like you mentioned to back this up?

68 + 72 = 140

320 - 140 = 180

180 / 2 = 90

If you do manage to pull 90 on each paper, not only will you get an A, but also an A*

90 + 82 = 172

320 - 172 = 148

148 / 2 = 74

this is getting so confusing haha, what I mean is the expressed emotion study shouldn't be used as an evaluation or to back anything up, its just another study you can use in the approach of you wanted to
