I think it'll be gender/culture or psychology uses (as key questions are used to answer the latter)

can key questions even come up on paper 3, i thought this was only content that could be assessed on P1 and P2 not P3

Yes and no, they don't explicitly ask for key questions. But if they ask about psychology used in society- it pretty much means key questions

Hi guys Ive just found myself in the most fear of my life... so I realised the papers are weighted differently.. i realised its 35% 35% and 30%. I thought if I got around 40 in each paper I'd be okay and on track for a B grade with a total of around 120/270 BUT if the weighting is true then only around 15 marks would be taken into account for paper 1 and 2 I'm freaking out and im not sure what to do.

omg hey queen,, always replying to me during my crashouts ❤️ I was losing my mind and though that the "weightings" of each paper meant that theyd take 35% of my marks from paper 1 for example and that would be all that contributed to my final marks. luckily i was beinfg dumb

"Evaluate Baddeley (1996b) and Rosenhan(1973) in terms of their scientific status"

Pretty likely, they've repeated ethics 2x on paper 3 and used it on paper 1- without even having used all the issues in questions. So id revise everything because there is no rhyme or reason to the questions they can ask x
