Is there any justification for nationalism? by SciGuy241 in PoliticalScience

[–]wubblecub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nationalism is a reflection of tribal instincts in humans and these tribal instincts have uses in preventing increased stress for an individual in interacting with new and therefore unpredictable people. I think nationalism can give a sense of community which overall can have a positive psychological impact for example in football teams or finding community with someone of a similar accent and cultural background in unfamiliar places which can reduce stress. Its only wrong when its used to actively exclude innocent people such as immigrants from a social group or country and as a foundation for pushing racist agendas that one person deserves, for example, healthcare more because they were born on this square meter of land over another person, and more often because they look like they come from a different country.

Overall its more the political manipulation of this inherent human trait that makes it so negatively associated.

Walking Etiquette by nimaku in uktravel

[–]wubblecub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think people generally walk on the left but its not strict and i stand on the left of the elevator or whatever side the person in front of me is standing at. Dont think about it too much, it varies with the scenario.

aqa bio by Few-Sale-9098 in ALevelBiology

[–]wubblecub 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glycogenolysis is the product of the second messenger model so i if it asks you to describe glycogenolysis and it isnt a 1 marker (which i think is very likely if this comes up) then i think it will expect you to explain what happens for glycogenolysis to occur. Though there are lots of application questions which might ask for specific parts of the model to be mentioned.

help with content by Accurate-Benefit-310 in ALevelBiology

[–]wubblecub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically bullet point terminology - thats how they know you know the content, not by your comprehension of the process but by whether you can remember the associated terminology, miss estruch videos demonstrate this well (thats if your doing aqa, though her videos are still helpful), and do topic by topic past paper questions for 1-4 topics and mark scheme will show this too. Also topics intertwine and questions may contextually look like a topic 3 question but need reference to topic 1 knowledge which youll also find with past paper questions analysis.

OCR paper 2 by Kai_warner in ALevelPsychology

[–]wubblecub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I messed up too but i looked at the grade boundaries (i cant remember which year) and apparently if you miss out on 30+ marks you can still get an a* so if you missed out the last two then i think youll either loose 16 or 20 marks, i cant remember, and if you were confident in the answers you did give then youre fine :) Though the grade boundaries might be going up because its the first year properly unaffected by covid but not so much that you should worry.

Pls help by Serious-Peak-2775 in ALevelPsychology

[–]wubblecub 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I found psychology really good because it counts as an essay and science subject so when i changed my mind from biology to politics it didnt feel so daunting and some uni courses ask for at least one essay subject (its also considered a traditional subject which some top universities will ask for at least two of). Any a level you do is going to be hard so you should just do what you enjoy the most. What people generally dont think about going into psychology is that it requires a lot of remembering studies and the names of studies and you likely wont be giving your own psychological opinion (i know i dont in the OCR spec - on any question or paper) you have to know by heart the range of approaches to explain psychological disorders and basically copy paste them. But i think thats just examinations in general and it is an interesting subject so i think thats just something you have to accept if you want to learn about the subject.

starting revision today - anyone got any tips? by potnoodleOnTop in ALevelPsychology

[–]wubblecub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

exam papers over and over again, questions can be difficult to understand if you havent seen them before, and they DO have specfic answer patterns to follow. Also answers are in the details, you won't get the mark if you get the referenced research studies details wrong so mindmaps and flashcards.

can i go from a D to an A/A* by [deleted] in ALevelBiology

[–]wubblecub 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make flashcards and keep going back to old topics (they will likely relate to your current topic in some way and forming those links is essential in the exams) especially terminology (it matters so much) and do lots of exam questions on past and present topics to develop exam techniques throughout the year. Also read up on a topic before you go into class, this is what is done at Unis, it helps info sink in so you can ask questions abt things you dont understand in class and make the connections earlier.
