Studying Psychology will change the way you think about yourself and other people; it is the scientific study of the human brain and behaviour. These are difficult to investigate and psychologists use a wide range of approaches and perspectives, each of which is covered in the AQA A Level course. Not only will students gain a greater understanding of the processes and influences driving behaviour and emotion in the real world, they will also develop a sound understanding of how the scientific method is applied to investigating these questions.
GCSE English grade 5, 5 in Mathematics and at least a grade 5 in Biology or 5-5 in Science. If studied at GCSE, a grade 5 or above.
Assessment is by three written papers, each of two hours: Paper one: Introductory Topics in Psychology (topics 1-4 above) Paper two: Psychology in Context (topics 5-7 above) Paper three: Issues and Options in Psychology (topic 8-11 above)
