hey everyone,
so this is sort of very last minute, but any input would be sooo appreciated.
i am applying for clinical psychology ph.d. programs. while application forms seem to not generally ask for writing samples, what are your thoughts on attaching one anyway?
also, i was thinking of submitting an assessment report i did for a volunteer, based on a battery of personality testing. the reason i would choose this is just that it's a very comprehensive, well-written, and very recent paper.
while i would, of course, obtain written consent first, and remove all identifying info (like name, background info, etc), would this be in the danger zone of being looked at as an ethics faux pas, or, since it doesnt involve lit reviews, extensive background research, is it too narrow in subject to be a useful addition to my application (given that my research focus is not related to assessment)?
thoughts?
thanks!
