There is no supported learning, the course is harder at other universities as in more in depth (I've had a friend leave aston in year one and show me what they do). The SPSS classes are a joke there is about 50 of you in a room and the lecturer says if you have a problem ask the people sat around you....

I was wondering what the psychology course in Aston is like from a current student's perspective.
Hi, I graduated last year. Course is okay, it depends what type of person you are - there's support available but don't expect for it to be handed to you on a plate. Knowledge isn't spoonfed but if you want to learn and show the professors that you're open to learning then you'll be fine. In regards to Paul's SPSS point - there'd be about 60-70 people in a room, so listening to everybodies individual points is not to be expected during a one-hour workshop, however the software is quite easy to grasp, and the tutor hands out a wide variety of booklets/materials to help the struggling students - and he kept slots open within his own timetable for students to visit out of hours.
Remember, if you don't tell anybody you're struggling, how are they meant to know? Use all the resources available to you and like me, you'll get a first-class degree
