    Within the Arts degree, what are the differences between Psychology and Psychological Studies? Is it a "better" course? Worse? Just different? Can't find any real info on the point of the two being there

    This might not be true but afaik during first year...psychology and psychological studies are the same but after 1st year,it is only the top 15 from that class that gets into Psychology in second year.If you get into second year psychology...it is a more direct route to becoming a psychologist.The rest of the class can go into psychological studies.As far as the actual difference is....well...I dont know sorry:o:D

    only pure psychology allows you to register with the i.ps. You cannot become a professional psych without this.....so psychological studies is essentially psych appreciation.....you can do a hdip after psych studies to get registered woith the ips but thats also competitive......study hard for the fist year and you will get in....
