Psychology examines an individual’s experiences, behaviour and motivation and leads to a deeper understanding of the self and others. Research findings are at the heart of this dynamic science subject and will be critically analysed to support or evaluate theories. From practical research and data handling to clear and thoughtful essay writing, the course is broad in skills as well as content. Most of what we have learned about brain functioning has happened within your lifetime so never has there been a more exciting time to study Psychology. A fascination with the mind and behaviour is essential but crucially you need to be prepared to embrace scientific thinking and learn a wide range of research evidence accurately. For students looking to try something new and seeking an A Level that is challenging and stimulating, Psychology is a perfect choice.
