I hated maths so much in high school that I didn't take any math units in year 11 and 12 but with a little extra study (not even a crazy amount) and I managed stats at uni just fine. Don't let stats turn you off an undergrad in psych. It's manageable and certainly not the hardest subject I took for my psych undergrad.
this is a very late reply, but thank you, Sophie, I really needed to read this! after hearing that I needed to take a stats course for my psych degree back in 10th grade, not gonna lie, I freaked out. a lot. I'm quite bad at math, so I don't know how I'll do. but hearing those stories of so many people who aren't that quite fond of math, actually do well in stats in uni, gives me hope I can pass and take the class and get it done with. (there's another psych class in my program that heavily focuses on stats, scared for that one also...) I'm currently in my first semester of my psych degree, having a rough start as it's my first year but looking forward to the rest of it!
You’re statement of no one actually writes like what a final research paper shows eases my anxiety about doing them in the future. Thank you for sharing guys 🧡
O my goodness! Thank you so much for making this q&a. I’ve never related so much 🥲. I’m a senior in college about to graduate with bachelors in psy and minor in sociology. All topics covered in this video is so relatable & informative . 💜
Heyy Ro! I've recently found my interest to pursue a career in psychology and I'm specially drawn to counselling.More like a counselling psychologist. Can u please explain the educational requirements & other career information about that. I'm really grateful that I came to know about u, Ro❤
I look forward to your vedios as phyc is a interesting field. Great work on your content and guess alex. Its very helpful to hear what goes onto phyc not just try the one area that we all know about (phyc practice)
Because most are women who hope to never have an actual job. They're trying to avoid any type of actual difficult intellectual work or just work in general and think psychology is just about talking about "feelings". That's why many change their mind regarding what job to pursue after they graduate university.
Hello ma'am This is Nihal from India I am BA hons psychology 2nd year student and I wish to work with you to enhance my knowledge & skills so please help me.😊
Hi! Not sure if you’ll see this, but can APAC accredited university courses be used in every state in Australia? Like if I get an APAC accredited psychology degree in Queensland, can I use it to study a masters / become a psychologist in Victoria? :)
Hi dear i am new i your channel i am really very depressed right now my daughter is in year 8 today she had vaccine she fainted in the school in front of her class and passed her urine school called me i take her home but she is crying knowing that someone take her picture and girls laughed at her she says she will not face anybody i am so worried i tried my best to calm her but what should i do now plz plz plz guide me
I'd really like to ask one question. I want to know if I should go back to therapy. I was doing therapy for a while, and I thought it was going well, but shortly after diagnosing me with avoidant personality disorder the therapist told me we should take a break, and I never heard from him again. I feel like he gave up on me. I don't know if it was meant to be a test, or just bad practice, but it seems to me like that is the worst thing you could do to a patient after diagnosing them with avoidant personality disorder. Now I don't know if I should contact that therapist again "its been like 5 years", or if its even worth doing therapy at all.
@@Blanche_255 After 3 different therapists have quit seeing you because they don't think they're helping, but you still feel like shit, and it costs you $250, or more a month you really question if its worth doing.
Possible Trigger Warning I'm going to start my psych degree next year, but I look into some important people in psych history in my free time. This question is kind of specific, and I'm sorry if it's heavy but it's something I'm really interested in. I started watching the crash course series you guys talked about and in one of the videos, they mentioned Alfred Kinsey - the father of sexual psychology whose research influenced a lot of studies in psych and modern American culture, and I recently heard that, though it's not talked about much, his research was fraudulent and he got his interviews from child predators and molesters in prison rather than random American citizens, as well as other disturbing things that there was proof of in one of his famous books. And I was thinking, if his research was so revolutionary to that field of modern psychology, has anyone talked about it in uni, if you learned about him at all? He was an important figure, but I wonder if anyone in the psychology field or university is trying to rethink our knowledge on that part of psychology if it's true that such an important part of its beginning/basis was based on lies/fraudulent research? I would really like to know if we'll learn about him in uni. Or if there have been other circumstances like this.

The number of drafts in my recycle bin would shock you 😅

love your videos!
omg im at unsw doing psyc too - and the tickling fact about schizophrenia is a fav fact of mine too hahah!
Hi Ro, how are you? I am so stressed recently… I am wondering if you could give me any recommendations on where I could find a good therapist?
Hello thank you for wonderful video ❤❤ ps. Is there any channel that I could follow Alek?
Hi Ro,
Why is clinical psychology so female dominated, and do you think it would sit well with males like myself?
Thanks!
Doesnt psychologist/psychiatry job need an analytical mind? if so, why do most psych students despise Stat?
Because most are women who hope to never have an actual job. They're trying to avoid any type of actual difficult intellectual work or just work in general and think psychology is just about talking about "feelings". That's why many change their mind regarding what job to pursue after they graduate university.
honestly being almost done my masters, i feel that we don’t learn as much as we should, we should all be doing PhDs
Can we have psychology without studying biology in year 11-12 ?

A bit late but why not try a new therapist?
Edit: by late i mean my reply lol not the therapy, it's never too late to get it!

I'm afraid of statistics. I'm purposely avoiding it for other classes. From California :)

can we do masters in psy after 3 years in uni
You have do a 4 th year here in Australia to get into masters!
o
so I don't lose my place: 25:20
In psychology do you do high-school stats
Not really.. more like applied statistics for research. It's quite a bit more complicated at uni I think
I was just catching up on statistics lessons, eww i just started but ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww i dont like stats
It seems that you either love it or hate it haha. I love the stats classes myself.
Oh yea I was not a fan of stats lectures 😅
