Currently considering choices, but interested in both general, 'how was studying for A Levels different' and specifically 'how was that subject different'. (Esp Psychology, French, Maths and Music!)
Surely they all expected to become more responsible for their own learning and for it to be harder - but what surprised them?

I know quite a few students were disappointed by psychology as it wasn't what they were expecting at all, and there were a few who switched subjects early on. So psychology is one where you should definitely take a close look at the syllabus before signing up.
