A question for everyone:
How far into your undergraduate degree did you know that you wanted to pursue a PhD (particularly clinical or counseling psychology)? I've read that people should only apply for psychology PhD programs if they have a burning research question they want answered (and research interests match with the individual professors at a school) essentially, is that still true? What experiences did you have that made you decide on PhD over a different path? (I'm currently trying to decide between pursuing veterinary medicine or psych graduate school).
Thank you for your comments!
