Psychology June 2013 Edexcel Paper 2 Understanding the individual

Have you learnt the syllabus and are just looking to recap or do you mean actually learn the whole syllabus?

I am likely to leave my revision until my other exams beforehand are completed, so I will be giving myself a whole week to revise it, and nothing else.

basically i revised unit 2/4 in detail a month ago but havent touched it since because i had other exams to revise for i have 12 in total how long would it take to rmember it all again? im thinking a week ish

Ooooh, I wouldn't want to do them both at once... though you're in a way better position for next year, you'll be way more prepared for now to do two in one exam season!

I got an A in Unit 1, 95% UMS... though I found the paper a lot harder than the mocks, I was getting higher than that raw marks wise on mocks beforehard, though I can't say I was actually disappointed with the grade!

Any tips for unit 1 since you got an A (well done!)? This is the forth time I'm sitting it I keep getting D's :frown:

Thank you :P

I just learnt the content really well, because that gave me confidence.
For Cognitive, especially, I had my theories, and then I had studies for and against, and I learnt them. I did written notes and spider diagrams...
While learning content, also do exam questions and get them marked, if possible, because it's useful...!

Do you know why you lose marks, where your weaknesses lie? :smile:

Yes, the questions are normally on practical and ethical issues of animal experiments

Bad papers & panicking in the exams unfortunalty!
The paper wasn't too bad - 12 marks on qualitative & quantitative data - stinker of a question! xx
