Psychology is the scientific study of the mind and behaviour. It uses the research methods of the sciences (particularly experiments) to investigate the human mind and to find out about and make sense of human behaviour. It is a very varied subject because any aspect of human behaviour can be looked at.
You should have at least a grade 6 in GCSE (or equivalent) Maths and sciences. You should have at least a grade 6 in writing-based subjects (e.g. GCSE English Language, English literature, History, Geography, Business Studies, Religious Studies, etc).
Psychology is a linear A Level course. Assessment will be through three, two hour written examinations taken at the end of the two-year course. The examinations are equally weighted, out of 96 marks. Question types range from short answers to extended, essay-type answers. There is no coursework.
