As I'm a year 12 Psychology student, do you have any tips and advice you could give to me about psychology. What did you do?
Keep going over the studies until you know them inside out, this is really important because they come up time and time again on the exams, and are usually worth a lot of marks.
Also resitting this year. Doing the same subjects, with different exam boards
What subjects. What unis are you applying for?
Yeah I’m in the same position. Well get through it.

My most important advice I can give is included in the post, but aside from that you need to spend a lot of time on the particular topics that are worth lots of marks. How good are you at mechanisms? Because they're relatively easy once you get your head around them and there's usually lots of marks to gain from them in the exams. The calculations also come up so much that you should also spend considerable amount of your time learning these too.

1. HOW MUCH REVISION: Personally, I started from week 1, but only a little at first, around 1-2 hours per week. I then gradually increased the amount per week as the year progressed, doing about 3-5 hours per day by May.

Week 1 in year 12 or 13?

How do you become/stay motivated?
I talked a little bit about this in the post. Gradually increasing my workload throughout the year allows me to not burn out so I can keep going. The other best way for me to stay motivated is to actually enjoy it (to some extent anyway). I like watching revision videos as they make learning more engaging, but it depends what subjects you do as you won't find them for every one.
