As I've been interviewing at different schools, I've started to notice inconsistencies in training and curriculum within different clinical psychology programs (e.g. when you start internal practicum, when you can start external practicum, what your clinical/research duties consist of as a student, etc.)
All of the programs that I've applied to have pretty solid stats (good funding, good research productivity, small cohort size, match rate > 85%, good EPPP pass rates), so it doesn't seem like any of the programs I've applied to are preparing incompetent clinical psychologists, but I'm curious if any current students or PhD/PsyDs can offer input on the potential effects of these differences in training?
