Hi,

I’m doing a level psychology aqa and I’ve got exams next month. The problem I haven’t revised for paper 3 since we finished the content really late and I’ll admit, I focused on my other subjects which I really regret now. Someone please tell me if its possible to revise schizophrenia, relationships and forensics in 3 days. I’m panicking so much and I don’t know what to do.

Thanks and I hope your revision is going well

Just get to it, there's no point asking the student room.

You can do it! You're almost there! Every moment you spend revising instead of procrastonating will pay off!

You’re 100% right. It’s just that sense of reassurance I needed. Thank you

Do the two sample paper 3s and the June 2017 paper 3, and then you'll be able to guage how much you know and don't know. And while you prioritise what you don't know, make you you still revise what you do know because you could end up forgetting it!

Of course! That's what I'm planning to do actually

if you can only afford to spend 3 days for Paper 3, make sure you squeeze in two hours each day for speciman paper/2017 past paper. You can find them here - http://www.aqa.org.uk/subjects/psych...ment-resources

Good luck!

Same boat, teacher's crap. Why 3 days.....? Wouldn't reccomend that, but if you learnt the stuff originally you'll be fine. It's just getting the specific studies into your head.

If not, all is not lost. Just do a cheeky bit of miller- chunk it.

Break down forensic (it's dull as, be warned) into explanations, treatments and then that stupid profiling stats bit at the beginning....

Schizo is sound because it's really interesting and short, plus it's all linked and stuff.

Relationships isn't one of my options, but I'm sure you'll get it. Psychology isn't toooooo bad; for a start they want you to answer the question they ask you (not a luxury that extends to AQA biology sadly).

Thank you so much for your reply. Indeed I shall start right away! I mean I understand everything in psychology so nothing is new. It’s just memorising the key studies and ao1. I don’t struggle with evaluation points too much. Just use the old PEEL technique lol. But thank you for giving me hope. I just need to focus more than ever and it should hopefully pay off.

Thank you so much for replying. I mean I understand everything it’s just the case of memorising the AO1 and research. Evaluation points are not too difficult for me. Indeed schizophrenia is my favourite topic in A2 Psychology. I hate relationships though and forensics is just long as hell lol. Thanks though
