Good afternoon!
While I wait to hear back from the schools I have applied to (both PhD and PsyD), I thought I might distract myself by preparing for possible interviews. I am prepared to answer questions about my educational, research, and clinical experiences, as well as read bios and articles written by faculty members. What I am mostly worried about are questions that will throw me off. What are some questions that you were not expecting/prepared for? I remember during my M.A. interview I was asked to describe a psychological theories throughout history and my opinion of them! I embarrassingly muttered my way through, but I sure know how to answer that one now. Additionally, what are some questions and topics that should be avoided?
Thank you in advance for any input! I think this will be the most nerve wrecking step in the application process for me.
