Should I do psychology or not?

[Nora1234]

Hi everyone
This coming year 2015, I am doing 4 subjects and I was wondering if I should do psychology☺️ My friends who did the subject said its really hard and there is tons of content involved, I am doing bio, Chem and eng in 2015 and was wondering if adding psychology would be to much on my plate. Please help
Thank you
Byeeeee

It really just comes down to whether or not you enjoy the subject and would find the content interesting enough to learn and commit to memory. I did 5 subjects this year (bio, chem, english, psych and further) and I found it quite easy to balance my time after a while, mainly because I found the content of my subjects intriguing which then provided me with the drive to focus and study.
If you do enjoy the subject, I definitely think you would be fine with handling the workload

Sounds awesome thanks a lot, I feel as though I will since I love bio, I think I will also love psychology😄 thank you for replying to me
Quick question how did you get so high in bio? Like your SAC and exam wise
Thanks

psychology is really fun and really interesting and is quite study-able (not very subjective). ive changed my mind in vce HEAPS and done 12 different subjects including 1/2s at one point or another and psych 3/4 was most definitely my favourite vce subject so far
if you like bio - you would probably like psych, they arent the same but they require similiar types of studying and thought processes. and people generally like one if they like the other
also psych is quite easy(relatively) to do well in, but you do need to study for it haha but the content is really interesting and fun so studying is interesting and not a chore
do it !

Psych is an awesome subject in the sense that sometimes you wont even feel like your studying but rather learning interesting facts and theories which you can easily relate to in your day to day life! So i'd definitely say go for it and just enjoy it I already miss psych

No worries   oh well I don't know how well I have done (they were just my aims), but SACs I would do alot of revision the day of or the day before the sac, so answering question sheets and reading over notes, and similar for the exam, but I would recommend making up notes (for Chem and Psych too even) as you complete an outcome or something, because I didn't, and there really wasn't enough time to at the end of the year I found. But I would say that practice/past exams are one of the best ways to prepare for any exam
