does anybody have any idea what questions might be on the exam?

I'm doing: Cognition and Law
Cognitive Development
Substance Abuse for Unit 3

and Approaches
Debates
Research Methods for Unit 4

I'm not looking forward to the exams really, there is a lot of content, I'm doing the exact opposite topics for unit 3 though, I'm not looking forward to linking back approaches and debates with topic areas, my essays just get all messy with them! its hard trying to get 8 A02s definitely :frown:

I'm struggling to remember all of the studies! It's impossible!
I've got a mock exam on Thursday but even though I've spent everyday this fortnight revising I just can't remember the studies. Starting to worry now as I didn't have this problem at AS.

I'm doing:
Moral Development
Depression and Schizophrenia
Cognition and the Law

Research Methods

Is anyone doing social development in child development and schizophrenia & mood disorders and and forensic psychology for applied options? Also, anyone got any good tips on how to revise for psychology? My other A levels are Biology and Chemistry and its pretty straightforward on how to revise for those two but Im finding it hard to revise for psychology in terms of revision technique? :/

Thanks!

learn the textbook... no joke there, the textbook for psychology is the most useful resource, knowing studies is of vital importance and go through the mark schemes of past papers it will help you to know what each question is looking for.

Hey guys! I'm doing: Moral Development, Substance Abuse and Forensic Psychology! Does anyone have any worksheets/revision notes they could send to me please? :colondollar: I am home studying so I've had to find revision material for myself.

Hope revision is going well for you all!

Could you send me the paper too please?
What textbooks are you using? I am doing it as a mature student considering a career change. Self-taught because I am a graduate. Decided to go for the A level route because I cannot discipline myself to do the work or structure it without exam. Worried the colleges will be using better texts with students. Thinking of doing a conversion masters and figured A level will get me used to exams again, esp. psychology ones.
