First Impressions

Words to describe AP Psychology.  Difficult.  Challenging.  Interesting.  Amusing.
It was no easy task to complete all of that work before class even began.  Then we get a quiz the second day of class.  But, I guess that is to be expected from an AP course.  So far, the information has been mostly easy to understand, in large part due to the readability of the book.  I think it's the only school textbook I have actually enjoyed reading.  I also realized how happy I am (for the first time) to have taken AP Stats and Anatomy, as a lot of the information is repeated in this class.
Not only the first quiz on moodle but the test also made me realize how important it really is to read and take notes.  You probably could get by with only reading, but I think it sticks much better after having written the information down.  I'm mostly looking forward to going more in depth on how people think and what psyciatrists, and the likes, do and how they do it.
