Perhaps the moderator could address this issue:

"Interview Feedback

The very popular SDN Interview Feedback features options to give feedback on travel, accommodations, school ratings, local life and more! You can see which contain this additional information by looking for the special icons on the review listings.
Choose from: Medical School, Dental School and Pharmacy School.
Podiatry school and veterinary school feedback coming soon!"

If I'm not mistaken, we are a more popular forum than podiatry and veterinary. And I'm sure that fellow applicants, including myself, would appreciate this valuable resource! How can we oblige SDN to create an "Interview Feedback" area for us?


Thanks!

Yes, I know this thread is more than a year old, but I was searching for all things interview and came across it and I agree with clinpsych.

To do this we will need a list of schools...start posting.

 

[irish80122]

We have the interview thread going and growing...is there something else you need? Let me know and I will help you with it however I can!

I agree...we could really use an interview feedback area. Interviews are [FONT='Calibri','sans-serif']crucial .to clinical psych applications.

As someone who is about to be going through (hopefully) several interviews for a psychology program, I think that we definately need our own interview feedback section. I mean, we are the only group on this website without one.

The decision has already been made that we need interview feedback for psychs, and that SDN is happy to do it, so there is no need to discuss it unless you just want to state your opinion. What the Admins need is a list of schools/programs to get this going.........

 

[irish80122]

Okay, so what you need then is a listing of all the schools we have applied to? I can start a thread for that, I just want to make sure that is what you are looking for. Thanks!

Looks like we need a list of all doctoral programs in the US, and possibly Canada. If anyone has a such a list, copy and paste to me in a PM.

 

[dragonstyle]

can't we just use the list of schools in the othe thread about applications? that seems like a pretty big/comprehensive list.

 

[irish80122]

I actually already sent them a list that should cover all of the schools, but if not I have seen other lists since then...but that part of it should be covered. Now we just need to I guess give our reactions to our interviews after we go on them so that we can help those who come after us

Did anything ever come of this? Let's implement it soon, while people are still checking the forums and have those interview experiences fresh in their minds. 😉

What's the hold up?? 😕 Can I help in any way?

 

[dragonstyle]

Based on information on the front page of SDN, the interview feedback for us might be up tomorrow (March 1). On one page it references Psychology feedback (here), while one page references psychiatry feedback (here, on the 26th). So either its just one of them, or both of them. But there should be something interesting tomorrow.

Nice!

 

[dubbs07]

Nice!

Ok.. any news? I don't see anything up yet... 😉

 

[dragonstyle]

me either. not to mention i keep using the links to other interview feedback and deleting their specific names (parm, od, etc.) and inputting any variation of psychology that I can think of.

yes, I have free time, but it keeps my mind off of the schools who still havent contacted me. we all cope in different ways.

There is a psychiatry one now, but it is confusing. After you click on it, it says "Psychology School Feedback", so maybe it is for Psychology, who knows. Anyway, none of my schools are on that list. Alliant (or CSPP), Argosy, California Institute of Integral Studies, University of La Verne, or Phillips Graduate Institute. Yes, I know most of these schools are unpopular on the forum, but people will still apply to them and I think they should be on this list. There's a feature for adding schools... I'm going to send a message through that and see what happens. So far there is only ONE interview feedback... let's get on it!! 🙂

Hmm.. it shouldn't be psychiatry. Psychiatry is a medical residency, not a doctoral program. This should be pretty straightforward. All the other categories up there have 4 items in their pull-down menus: forums, interview feedback, blogs, and links. All except psychology, which has forums, blogs, and links. No interview feedback option.

Yet.

i agree. psychiatry school does not even exist. but it says psychiatry school feedback right next to dental school, pharmacy school, etc. maybe they got confused? at least its something though.

That was a typo -- we get an F for programming. 😳 Its fixed now.

 

[ClinPsyD917]

YaY! That was sooo fast, thank you!! And also... since you're an admin for sdn... this site it is amazing. Not just the Psych section, but all of it. It has completely saved my life this year. So thanks!!

Thanks - I found the link from the main SDN page. 🙂 Cool. But, there's no link from the menus at the top of the forum page (right under the banner ads). Could we get links to our interview feedback like the other kids have there? 😉 Or.. if they're there, I can't see them. 🙄

Gratzi! 🙂 This place is WONDERFUL, btw.
