College course advice please?

I'm thinking of going back to college to take Psychology. I did it about 4 years ago but failed the first year. The course lasts two years, first year is AS Level, second year is A2 Level. AS + A2 = Full A Level. The only thing I have to pay is the entry fee which is about £15. Also for this course I would have to take 2 or 3 other subjects along side it. And I don't want to take anything else, I just want to do Psychology by itself. But...
There is also a course (AL) which is a full A Level in one year. So it's both years crammed into one. This costs about £300.
There is no guarantee I will pass obviously.
I guess my question is, would it better to waste two years + subjects I don't want, OR, one year and £300.
I don't want to do the 2 year course because I don't want to take other subjects along side it. But then the full year course is a lot of money.

I hope I made sense Some advice please?

Personally and professionally, I think the more subjects you study the more you learn about the subject of your choice. At least, that has been my experience. There is no subject that is irrelevant to psychology. (or art, or literature, or math, or sciences...or any...) It amazes me when I realize the things I have used and thought little of, and I am most bothered by the things I did not learn for lack of realizing the worth of that knowledge. Life changes as you go and there is nothing you can learn that will be useless.

I guess it would depend on your point in studying psychology. If you want a job in the future, I don't think you will be able to get one without other, very-related, subjects like sociology, history, English composition courses for how to write well, literature courses to study psychology through literature, etc.

If you are studying psychology just because you want to study psychology, then you can do whatever you would like and, presumably, you will do well because it is what you want to study.

If you have some other reason for studying psychology (to help yourself with your own issues, for example), then I would take the less expensive course and as many other courses as I could, whether I wanted to or not, to broaden my understanding of the rest of the world too, as one cannot live in the vacuum of just themselves and to help one's self one has to not only understand one's self but those around one.

The two year course is more worldly/of wider range of help in multiple situations; the crammed one-year one is probably for those with a career/background in something else trying to quickly move sideways into another profession. Since you are just starting out and don't have a background, I'd work on getting one and that takes a variety of knowledge and experience.

Never mind. I give up. I won't be going back.

why not???????

One Day, One Hour, One Minute ... Patient, Gentle & Kind ... Sometimes the best thing we can do for ourselves is absolutely nothing. It takes the load of the world off our shoulders and gives us time to heal.

It would just be pointless.

Learning is Never pointless.

It is when you fail.

You are worried, take it slow, one course at a time for a while until you feel up to taking more. Maybe even consider a non-credit adult-ed course to take the grade stress off the learning.
How do you learn best? What gets in your way? What would help you to succeed? We each have a style of learning, some can read and do, some need hands on, some of us are visual learners, others learn more using other methods.
MH issues always complicate things, but do not have to make it unattainable. You really can do this, maybe just not the way you think you "should"...
Don't give up. PM if you want to.
