CMU I/O Psych Comps

An online resource maintained by students to help each other with the most difficult exam of their lives. The exam will be hard enough, so let's help one another prep for it at least.

Here are a few things you can expect to find around the site:


A description of what comps is and entirely entails.

Some advice on how to prepare for the exam months or days ahead of time.


A collection of suggestions which may help you during the exam.


Previously used comps questions which will give you an idea of what you're in for.


Both presently hosted and external items which will help you find and study exam materials.



You're probably going nuts from studying and worrying, so we'll help you relax too.
