I'm applying for clinical phd programs this fall but i'm starting to talk myself out of it because they are so competitive. I tried applying my senior year of college but didnt get in anywhere. My undergrad gpa at a top 30 liberal arts college was about a 3.79, psych gpa about a 3.95. I got my masters in developmental psych at columbia finishing a semester ahead of schedule, gpa was 3.8. The first time i took the gre i got a 700q, 650v, 690 subject. I'm taking it again this fall because i think i can do significantly better. I have a book chapter published as the sole author and i have a article under review in a highly prestigious journal as the lead author. right now i'm project coordinator for a psychiatry study at yale doing a combination of clinical and research.
I think I'm an average candidate, but i need to be more than average to get into a good program.
any recommendations how to improve my application???
