Have you ever wondered if the experiences you had before the age of five really do shape the person you are today? Psychology gives students an understanding of the way people think and why people behave in certain ways. They will learn a variety of skills including analytical thinking, improved communication, problem solving and many more. The A Level includes three written examinations: • Introductory Topics in Psychology - Social Influence, Attachment, Memory, Psychopathology • Psychology in Context - Approaches in Psychology, Research Methods, Biopsychology • Issues and Options in Psychology - Issues and Debates in Psychology, Schizophrenia, Relationships, and Forensic Psychology
Psychology is a diverse subject that can be thought of as the scientific study of animal (human and non-human) behaviour and cognitions (information processing). No specific content knowledge is required but girls need to be committed to putting in extra work to develop the necessary skills for success in Psychology. A basic understanding of Mathematics would be an advantage.
