Hello, Going to be applying to schools in the fall. Haven't been able to consolidate the information on which programs (both PhD and PsyD) look at only the last 60 credit hours for the undergraduate gpa.... Bombed freshman year courses, but did well in my classes all other years. I know...

Working to improve healthcare, I still don't look forward to being a patient—especially not unexpectedly. Here's a personal reflection on life and leadership following my medical episode. I hope you find it valuable. Reflection: Pain Is a Vital Sign

Hi there, I have just recently acquired an opportunity to work as an RA in an Ivy league school lab, doing psych research in the field I think is what I want to do in grad school. the problem is that they are requiring a 2 year commitment, and I have just graduated from undergrad, meaning I...

I am a 2017 graduate from UCD, political science major with 3.88 sGPA I have recently decided to take a second gap year due to some health issues. I could have applied this cycle, but it may have been in a somewhat haphazard fashion that it is possible to see regretting, with my burning only...

I was wondering if anyone knows of any clinical psych. programs that look at your last 60 credits GPA (or something similar). I found a few already, do these have good programs? 1) Binghamton Uni. NYS 2) Brigham young Uni. 3) University of South Florida 4) university of Washington Thanks!

I am currently enrolled in a survey research course for which I needed to create a survey questionnaire. Instead of doing this I decided to take the opportunity of having an adviser and decided to make my "survey" one of an experimental nature and submitted it to the IRB at my college. I...

Hello Everyone, I am a Texas Resident and I plan on applying to a few out of state medical schools next cycle. Texas Medical schools accept some psychology classes in their science gpa ( psyc 320 - sensation perception, psyc 335 - physiological psychology, etc.) My question is will out of state...

I have so many questions about what seems to be a mystery degree. First off, I can't find many (reputable) programs that offer this degree other than a few school psychology programs. Second, I've noticed that most of the providers I've encountered with this degree are older. Was this degree...

Hi, all. I’m in a predicament. I’ll be a non-traditional student. Have just gone back to college and trying to decide on a major. I’m attending Arizona State ONLINE. Options: A) Major in Psychology. Better chance at a higher GPA. Very interesting to me anyways - and most people say to undergrad...

I am currently in college and will be transferring in 2020 to a four year university and majoring in Psychology or History ( I really like History). I thought about being a Psychiatrist or a Psych PA or NP. I've realized that they do not focus and really don't do therapy and just prescribe and...

To spare you the vague cliches of why I'm choosing to go into medicine at 24 years old, I'll just simply ask for some advice. Long story short: I'm attending college online (yes, from a great, regionally accredited university) and I know prerequisites being done online is a no-no for a lot of...

I’m a non-traditional student - 24 years old and just starting my undergrad. Going to a brick and mortar university for me right now isn’t possible, so I’m getting my undergrad from Arizona State University’s online program. I’m planning to get my undergrad and take extra prerequisites at my...

Hello! Currently, I am an undergraduate student on a pre-med path. I am majoring in psychology and neuroscience. For me, intelligence is not a problem. I don't mean to come across as egotistical, but I am extremely smart. I have never failed a class (or an exam). The last time I got a B on a...

Hello! I’m currently an upper sophomore aiming for a B.S. in psychology and a minor in neuroscience- with the rate of the classes that I’m taking, I could be done with everything (in addition to my college’s general ed requirements) by the end of junior year. The terms of my scholarship do not...

Hi all - I'm not sure if I'm posting this to the right forum because I've never posted before... I was just accepted to the psych. in education (clinical psych.) MA program at Teacher's college at Columbia U. I have heard mixed reviews on this program and wondered if anyone here could share...

I have to choose! Help! Roosevelt is only 20,000 a year and in Chicago which is a city I know and love. There seemed to be a lot of support for the students, and a cohort size of 20 seems just big enough to be able to choose friends, but still have small classes. DU is like...40 or 50,000...

Anyone know anything about this program?

Hello friends! I am new to the thread and joined to get some help deciding between a more specialized practicum vs. general practicum in my PhD. Typically, is it recommended to start with general practicums first and then specialize (spending 1-year doing assessments and ABA intervention with...

What's the difference between a conversion disorder and dissociative disorder? All my Google research has said they're pretty much the same thing but one of the questions on the AAMC Practice Test 2 has a question about them with both conversion and dissociative disorders as separate answers.

Hey everyone! I'm hoping I can get some advice on my situation. I am 24 years old and majored in bio in college while claiming pre-med. After graduation I worked as a research assistant in a lab on a GI disease. This experience along with talking to many, many doctors guided me away from...

Hi SDN I'm gonna get right down to it. I have a family (two kids, one on the way) and I've found a really great opportunity. I'm currently finishing my BS in Psychology at a Teaching College and the only research experience (if it can even be called that..) is a Research Methods class, where I...

Is it worth it to get a psychological degree just for yourself, to kind of understand yourself and have basic knowledge of the human mind? Tell me if i wrong.

Just curious what types of jobs or tasks an intern would go through on a day to day basis. (Specifically an intern in the family/counseling field) If you're an intern or you know an intern in any other specific area; feel free to list a few tasks with the field he/she is working in.
