Hi,
I’m Lily a second year Psychology student at ARU.
I can really empathise with this, as I as well was really anxious about the maths part of psychology. I’ve always found it a struggle and not something that clicks with me.
Personally on my course at ARU, I’ve found there is such a big support group. The lecturers are aware that this kind of stuff is difficult, and not everyone will understand it. When I was struggling my seminars was super useful, with the lecturers constantly asking how we were getting on etc.
Also a lot do templates and workbooks was given to us as support, almost as a practice before our assignments.
I would say personally, don’t let the maths part put you off. It is only a small part of psychology, but it is important as well. As long as you put the work in, which may take some extra time for those who struggle with maths you will get there in the end.
Also, different universities have different assignments and learning techniques so maybe try and see what modules are on at each university?
Hope this helps and if there’s any questions please feel free to ask!
