On the previous biology assessment, I had been able to work hard and achieved first in the subject. As I wanted to keep this rank in the subject, I worked hard for the next biology assessment which was a depth study. I also did not do as well as I wanted to on the year 11 depth study, and so I was more motivated to do better. I had started it a bit early and had my peers and teachers read over it occasionally. Although I sometimes did not believe I was doing it correctly, I researched over the structure of depth studies online. As a result of starting early and occasional checks, I was able to achieve a 96% for the assessment, 2nd in the year.

people who are enrolling because they're parent are forcing them
- its okay if your parents work in the field but you must also be passionate and interested in the degree
People who pic degrees to diagnose themselves or their friends
- a lot of psyc students choose psyc because they think it'll help them/friends and don't realise how much effort needs to be put into psyc i.e. its at least 5 - 8 years of study to become a therapist/ psychologist
- you need to do some research into the degree and understand what you're getting into

people choosing the degree because it'll make them money, again you need to have passion
