This year the University was different from the previous two because the first semester we had a bunch of each of the five specialty of psychology and then, the second semester, we had optional subjects. In this semester each one chose the classes that want to take, the year was special because now every one begin to choose the specialty that we want to continue, and then we will delve into the diploma course. One consequence of this new method was that the course was divided into different subjects and we mix with the students of fourth year. Something new was that I was not with my friends in all subjects, except one, and now I'm seeing my friends less.
The first semester was a lot of work months for each of the specialties (clinical, legal, educational, community and labor). It demanded us many test and work, and that meant many hours of study. Several of these studies we performed in group, that sometimes was more complicated for the short time we had. I think the effort finally paid off and I had good results in all areas. Also I got to know more about the specialties of psychology and now I have clearer what specialty I want to study.
The second half was more relaxed than the first one because I decided to take four theoretical subjects and also take english and yoga (because it is an olbigation to make two subjects of sport in my career). The classes I chose were: Use of Hallucinogens in Psychology, Clinical Psychology Infant - Juvenile, Recruitment and The Therapist: Known from the Emotions. The topics are varied because I have to make at least one subject of each specialty (although I do not like). I think this semester was quieter, I had less academic requirements and more free time, but this didn´t mean to set me carefree. I fulfilled all requirements with the advantage that I had more time to devote to each subject.

Now at the end of the year I can say I had two good semesters. I think this was the year I learned more knowledge about my future profession and I like that, because the first two years were more introductory. I like to choose the classes that I will take, but it also means responsibility, I hope take good decisions. Also this year I finished my english classes and sports and that means that next year I will have 100% theoretical subjects, so I think I will need to rest during the holidays and prepare for a demanding year.
I see that you also succeeded in confronting the changes this year brought along. Good luck with your studies next year!
ResponderEliminarI'm attaching your post with some corrections.
FOR MANY REASONS This year AT the University was QUITE different from the previous two. The first semester we had a bunch of each of the five COMPULSORY specialty SUBJECTS of psychology and then, the second semester, we had optional subjects. In this semester each one chose the classes that WE wantED to take. The year was special because now every one begAn to choose the specialty that we want to PURSUE, and then we will delve into the diploma course. One consequence of this new method was that the course was divided into different subjects and we mixED with the students of fourth year. Something new was that I was not with my friends in all subjects, except one, and now I'm seeing my friends less.
The first semester THERE was a lot of work TO DO FOR months for each of the specialties (clinical, legal, educational, community and labor). It demanded us SITTING many testS and work, and that meant many hours of study. We DID A LOT OF group studY, that sometimes was QUITE complicated BECAUSE OF the short time we had. I think the effort finally paid off and I had good results in all areas. Also I got to know more about the specialties of psychology and now I have A clearer IDEA OF what specialty I want to study.
The second half was more relaxed than the first one because I decided to take four theoretical subjects and also take english and yoga (because it is MADATORY to DO two sportS subjects in my career). The classes I chose were: Use of Hallucinogens in Psychology, Clinical Psychology Infant - Juvenile, Recruitment and The Therapist: KnowING from the Emotions. The topics are varied because I have to make at least one subject of each specialty (although I do not like IT). I think this semester was quieter, I had less academic requirements and more free time, but this didn´t mean to set me carefree. I fulfilled all requirements with the advantage that I had more time to devote to each subject.
Now at the end of the year I can say I had two good semesters. I think this was the year I learned more knowledge about my future profession and I like that, because the first two years were more OF AN introductory NATURE. I like to choose the classes that I will take, but it also means MORE responsibility, I hope TO take good decisions. Also this year I finished my English and sports classes and that means that next year I will have 100% theoretical subjects, so I think I will need to rest during the holidays and prepare for a demanding year.
