Hi, a level psychology aqa student here, self studying.
I've found that if I write out notes for a topic, it takes me longer, but I do remember it well. But with flashcards, It means my notes are now also revision support as well as a testing method. I know if I write notes on a topic I'll end up doing flashcards too, but I've never studied a topic just by writing flashcards for it.
It's forensic psychology. I also have never taken this course before. I have literally picked it up and booked the exam. I have finished paper 1 content except for research methods, and done nothing else due to very bad health issues.
I'm starting from 0 knowledge on forensic psychology. So what do I do? I'm worried with the limited time I have, writing notes then flash cards will waste it.
