Getting through chapter 2 - been busy with other subjects
For past Psychology students, how much of Chapter 1 - Research Techniques, do we have to know? Cause its really shit boring.

yea go us for psychology 2009 WOOTS 

Ive been told by my teacher that chapter 1 is needed for both unit 3 and unit 4.
Ive done chapter 1 and starting chapter 2 (is this griva's textbook?)

anyways to me psychology is a science but others may disagree

research methods runs through both units 3 and 4, so it's imperative that you know it well

It is a science technically.
And research methods, etc. is very important (always comes up on both exams -though usually only in MC questions) Having a good understanding makes the quick and easy points even easier.

rm is that huge... its on both exams so you need a thorough knowledge but its not as massive as the other AOS. But the is 0 point in learning the RM that you need for unit 4 now, check with your teachers/vcaa study design which ones come first and work on them. its v. basic maths :S just dead boring.

Thanks for clearing that up guys !
Good luck to all Psychology students
