Is alevels psychology easy or computer science (only 3-4 months are left)

. I didnt choose computer science as an A-level, but I did take psychology instead. It’s not an easy subject because it involves a lot of science and maths, and the exam timings and the specific way the examiners expect you to answer each question can be challenging. That said, psychology is a really interesting subject, and I would recommend it to others. However, I’d also acknowledge that many students find it difficult, and the average grade tends to be around a C-B.

My teacher teaches both psychology and sociology and always says that psychology is similar to sociology but harder. So, if you’re interested in a subject like psychology but want something a bit easier, sociology could be a good choice.

dont do computer science. it has very few resources out there which makes it very hard to revise for. psychology has much more resources.

I do sociology and psychology. And I enjoy sociology a lot more. The content is a lot easier to remember but it is an essay heavy subject
