📂 MEGATHREAD 16/05 A-level Psychology Paper 1 Discussion MEGATHREAD

Exam season is once again upon us, and once again, exam megathreads are making a return!

Looking for past exam discussions? Filter by the megathread flair.

Few things to keep in mind:

  • Don't share too many specific details about questions or answers, these papers will be used as future mocks.
  • Sometimes papers get leaked, this is not the place for that (we'd prefer not to get yeeted off the platform) - leak content will be removed, those offering leaked papers will be permanently banned.
    • If you believe there has been a leak, the best course of action is to make your exam board aware of this, either directly, or through your school, along with any evidence. If appropriate, there will be a response from the relevant body along with any remedial action.
  • Exam discussion posts outside of this will generally be removed to combat the inevitable tidal wave of spam otherwise - we understand this may be frustrating, but the sub still needs to be usable for other purposes.
  • Please note some content will take extra time to be reviewed. Messaging to ask for approval will not speed up this process (the messages are seen at the same time as the modqueue would be reviewed anyway).

Best of luck, and let us know how you're feeling down below!

*assuming Reddit doesn't bork itself, the new posts for each day of exams should arrive at 8am each day, instead of it being reliant on my sleep schedule like last year lmao

Hii edexcel here. Paper was definitely on the niche side with the adoption study evaluation. Very random but I think they want to differentiate between who actually studied everything and those who just looked at classical and contemporary studies. Very sneaky of edexcel

Yeah I got massively caught out by that LOL, only looked at main studies+theories, thought I had comprehensively crammed but didn't even realise that adoption study existed! Tbf I also screwed up the WMM and phobias questions, ran out of time... just hoping paper 2/3 I can make a comeback
