How many daily hours of study would be needed to get a psychology degree in 1 year?
#8
Kev Wrote:I am very happy to have found this forum and to discover that it is possible to get a degree from home and in a very short period of time (at a very low cost as well). Although it might be thought as simple at first glance, I am certain doing this isn't for everyone and that it probably requires a lot of hard work, study and discipline.

So, I would like to get a psychology degree. I would also like to complete it in a short period of time—about a year. To get a better understanding of my situation, intensive study is something I actually like, and I have a flexible work schedule, which will certainly be very good for studying.

So realistically, about how many hours per day or per week would someone need to study to get a psychology degree in 1 year? Are there specific things that would be difficult to do? How easy/difficult would it be?

I know will a little bit of work (assuming you are aiming for the passing score) you can knock out a bunch of really quick credits. It took me a very short time to do three of the four ALEKS math courses(I already had Stats done). I think I finished those is a week. (9 credits already done). I'm working on history courses from Shmoop right now and knocked out the first one in about 4 days. If I didn't take a break with the all the ACE credits I have earned so far I prob could have finished them in about 10days or so. That 14credits I have that way so far. Thats just about 1 semester done in 10ish days. If your a good test taker CLEPs would be awesome for you some worth 6 credits a pop. Pass 2 of those in a day and 12 credits done. Personally with putting a good amount of work in a year should not be an issue to finish. I'm not sure how many classes you will need to take through Study.com but if you have to take a lot I'd start now because its 2 exams per month so only 6 credits a month from Study.com. (I did hear about a possible extra exams for 70$, but haven't heard if this was accurate or not). Good Luck and keep us posted. I know I love hearing about everyone elses success. It helps motivate me more!!
