G5er Psychology

This course is designed not merely to teach psychology, but to use it as a training ground for cultivating a G5-level intellect. We move decisively beyond pop-psychology myths to engage with the discipline as a dynamic science, teaching you how psychologists formulate questions, design rigorous research, and build knowledge through evidence. You will learn to absorb complex information critically, to synthesise competing theoretical perspectives into a coherent argument, and to deconstruct claims with a focus on methodological integrity. The ultimate aim is to forge a stance of intellectual maturity: the ability to embrace complexity, tolerate uncertainty, and prioritise evidential reasoning over comfortable assumptions. This rigorous, exam-based assessment mirrors the university environment, challenging you not just to know, but to think like a psychologist—a skill that will define your success as a G5er.
