Check out psychboost or ask your teachers for PowerPoints from the lesson if you don't already have access to make notes. I basically make 16 marker plans for each subtopic. For example, for the working memory model revision page I would summarise 6 bullet points for a01 and then three a03 paragraphs for the evaluation. That way, you have all the content you need for different questions on one page. Hope this helps!

Hi there,

I studied AQA A level Psychology as well and found the best way for me to revise was by blurting and doing lots of practice papers and questions - with blurting, I would learn the content then write out all the information I remembered in a mind map in one colour, then once I had written everything, I would look at my notes and add the new info in a different colour and would continue this until i remember it all.
There are lots of exam papers and questions online that I would complete and send back to my teachers once completed.

Hope this helps! :smile:

definitely see if you can get access to powerpoints if you’re school uses them
in general, brain dumps are really good for psychology once you understand a topic, and make sure you’re doing essay practice [16 markers] as those will make up a big part of your final exams :]
and definitely take this year a little more seriously haha, you’ve got this !! ❤️
