    Has anyone done this ?

    I know it's essentialy just 4 modules from the first year of the Psychology degree programme, but I'm leaning towards doing this as it's 13 years since I was in full time education and I think 1 evening a week would be an easier than jumping straight into the degree.

    I've done first year of the degree course there.

    It's really interesting. Not sure which modules you do in the diploma course though. It's quite tough but nothing that's too hard to handle.

    Good luck!

    the 4 modules are :

    Introduction to psychology
    Cognitive Psychology
    History and schools of psychology
    Physiological Psychology

    So it seems to be basically 2 from each of the semesters of the 1st year of the degree course, but at least I'll get an exemption when i start the degree course and it'll ease me back into studying again.

    Cognitive and physiological are the biggest obstacles imo.

    Very easy if you learn the material but don't miss any classes and study up after each class so you keep on the ball. Otherwise the work will build up and you're fúcked!
