A Level Psychology includes some of the most popular and controversial psychology topics of study. The area of social influence in the first year of study gives students the opportunity to investigate and replicate some of the most interesting topics in psychology. There are also opportunities to study mental illnesses and abnormal behaviour including OCD, depression, schizophrenia and phobias. As the A Level course involves science and maths elements, students are expected to plan, carry out, present and analyse data from their own investigations, which makes the new A Level course more in line with university study and psychology in the real world. There is also an opportunity in Year 13 to study forensic psychology which includes investigating serial killers and the profiling techniques used to catch them.
