So, I had my 2nd Intro to Psychology exam today. I should have studied more than I did! Fall Break really was nice, but I should have started studying earlier, so I could do it in increments each day. However, I feel like I knew more than I thought when taking the test. The irony was that today we were being tested on memory and long term memory–in other words, it’s better to start studying earlier and a little bit each day. I clearly am the prime example of what not to do! I really do recommend that every student (regardless of major) take a psychology course. That is, if you have room in your schedule. Especially with Social Psychology, you experience the fun side of psychology, while not being too stressed with the content load. Topics such as relationships and prejudice are among some of the things that we are tested on. How interesting!
