We also consider different factors that can affect individual behaviour such as genetics, nurture, cognition, stress, evolution and childhood. What will I be studying on the course? We teach the AQA specification. At AS level we cover the modules of: Memory: Attachment: Social Influence: Research Methods: Approaches with Biopsychology: Psychopathology: At A2 level we cover the following modules: Biopsychology: Approaches: Issues and Debates: Relationships: Schizophrenia: Forensic Psychology: Research Methods: What will I be doing in lessons? In lessons you should expect to be taught about psychological studies/research/ theories and then to evaluate them in depth in terms of positive and negative criticisms. You will be expected to write short essays that are constructed in a logical manner. Sometimes lessons might take the format of debates/discussions and also investigation/ research related activities.
Students considering studying Psychology at A level should have a grade 6 in English Language or English Literature and a grade 6 in at least one GCSE Science.
