Hello Dr. ClinPsy,
Thanks for the great advice so far! Here are three more ques:
1. How much does it matter to be in a prog with a child track vs. gen track for a person that's interested primarily in child clinical psych. (also, if the gen track offers a TON of child clinical experience-does this difference matter?)
2. Some schools really talk about giving their grad students teaching experience--by way of courses on teaching as well as allowing grad students to be the instructor of record. How valuable is this really when applying to faculty positions after graduation.
3. How much does teaching experience in general (such as SAT classes and undergrad TAing count) for future faculty positions?
