Do you find that it's better to concentrate more on VCAA? You know, they're the ones that do the exam and all....

done 44 psych exams believe it or not

only one i got under 90% in is one of the insight ones ... it was a fairly new book . so im guessing 2008 or 2009 insight?
but i got like 85% or so .... was hard  .. asked random stuff

vcaa .. is the easiest exams in the world ....2006-2008 i got between 98-100% ... 2009 .. asked like 1 or 2 tricky questions and i got 92%

other than that ... psych is easy ..

but the trick with psych is just learn to define stuff . ull get 100% :P :P :P

Holy crap, how do you even get 44 psych exams.

STAV ones are pretty challenging, but they also have a few irrelevant questions.

i got up so late today :\

I've been getting up quite late which may be related to the second stage of GAS. While I am currently pumped (or was pumped) to face my 3 (+1 gat) exams this week, my resistance to other stressors (cold weather) is low, so now I have a cold and feel like crap. Thanks, cortisol.

Damn you, predictable yet uncontrollable effects of stress.

Clearly, I need to get out more.

Hahahaha, yeah I know... thank god i was sick like 2 weeks ago and now i'm better. Yay!

Also, with GAS, is it the resistance stage or the exhaustion stage where people are more likely to get sick?

Pretty sure people start to get sick during resistance (due to presence of cortisol inhibiting immune system) and then exhaustion is when the illness becomes more severe.

Resistance is when the person has lessened resistance to new stressors but an increased resistance to the initial stressor. If the initial stressor persists a person enters the exhaustion stage. At this stage the bodies coping mechanisms are depleted to the point where they cannot even deal with the initial stressor, let alone new stressors.
