Psychology is the study of the mind and behaviour that helps us understand the world in which we live. Psychology provides students the opportunity to consider questions such as: • Why do our memories deceive us? · • How do we classify normal and abnormal behaviour? · • What makes someone a hero or a villain? · • Why can stress cause us physical damage? · • How can certain situations make people lose their moral judgement entirely? It is a Science subject which requires strong writing skills. It is an academic subject that is unique in that it complements a wide range of other subjects from the arts to the sciences.
To gain a C or above you will almost certainly need at least a 6 in GCSE English and Maths/Science.
Three examination papers each of 2 hours. The exams consist of short-answer questions as well as data response questions including some mathematical elements and extended writing questions.
