I think I remember there being a question about Hebbs theory. There were a lot of research method questions like graphs and making and designing a study into an area of psychology like social influence and perception. There was a question about Gregory's theory and Gibson's (perception). I don't think I remember anything else sorryy I did it a while ago.
The textbook made by Aqa for psychology doesn't include everything as they asked about a lot of things that wasn't in the textbook especially when it comes to theories and studies. For example they asked for the evaluation of Hebb's theory and willinghams, so make sure you make up some evaluations haha.

I have never heard of Hebb's theory before? Which topic is that in? Is it in the main topics or one of the additional ones?

Well, i can only remember the main 16 markers tbh.

For paper 3, what i remember atm is the following questions:

There was a nature-nurture question for issues& debates, a question on Sutherland's socialisation theory for forensic psychology, a question on the interactionist approach to schizophrenia.

Hopefully that helpful for you if you do any of those topics for paper 3. I'll try and see what else i can remember from last year.

If you need any other help or tips/advice on how to do well in psychology, let me know! i managed to get an A* last year and would love to be able to share my knowledge and expertise with others, especially since psychology is one of my most favourite subjects!

It would be wonderful if you could share some tips/advice on how you managed to cover all the content, when you started revising and your methods to memorise all the evaluation points!
Thank you for all the help, you're an absolute angel! xx
