I have the following tests ordered according to other information from this forum:
1. Abnormal Psych.
2. Research Methods in Psych.
3. Gerontology
4. Adulthood & Aging (study w/ Gerontology)
a. Educational Psych.
b. Human Growth & Development (study w/ Edu. Psych.)
All I have remaining is Social Psychology. Should I place it after the numbers and take it as my 5th test, or take it last; after HG&D? Or somewhere split between.
Just looking for as much overlap as possible. Feel free to mix the entire list around as well if you feel there should be a different order.
Really looking for some advice on this, thanks guys!

To quote BASKETWEAVER,
BASKETWEAVER Wrote:IMHO, I would take them in the following order:
1. Abnormal Psych (Not tied in with the others)
2. Research Methods in Psych (experimental model tied in with remaining tests)
3. Gerontology and Adulthood & Aging: Study BOTH of the guides before you take either one as there is a lot of overlap between the two, then take them as close as you can to each other, but I don't recommend the same day as they are very long tests.
4. Social Psych
And yes, IC is enough to pass all of these with A's & B's.
As for human growth and development and educational psychology, I would take them before the ECEs since they are a little easier.

I agree with Roberts . HGD first, Educational psych second. I'd group both geri classes together no matter where you do them, and I think abnormal and research methods can go in any order. HGD will touch on geri issues, so as for overlap, I'd say that's about it.

Thank you, both! I have decided to take the exams in the following order:
A. Human Growth & Development
A. Educational Psych.
B. Gerontology
B. Adulthood & Aging
C. Abnormal Psych.
D. Research Methods in Psych.
E. Social Psych.
I encourage everybody to move anything around if you think it'd be wiser. I'd love to hear other input; how YOU would take them, and why.
