ok so im just finished 2nd year psychology which was worth 40% to my degree and to be honest i pissed about a lot and i reckon i got an average of about 50%...i heard that if you want a psychology degree which would actualy be worth anything you have to get at least a 2:1....hopefully i will be able to get a 2:1...but if not does anyone know if you can gain entry to specific areas in psychology such as a masters???

Most British Psychological Society accredited post grad courses require a 2.1 or above but this does not mean that they would never accept someone with a 2.2 especially if they also have relevent experience. Take a look at the BPS website for information relating to courses and career possibilities http://www.bps.org.uk/careers/accredited-courses/accredited-courses.cfm
You admit that you have messed around a bit this year and been a true craicjunkie but at least you know that already and you have the chance to turn things around for next year If your second year is worth 40%, you can pull your grade up a lot with your 3rd year. Stay positive!
