Hello all,
I am interested in applying to equal-emphasis clinical Ph.D. programs in 2012 but I am concerned about my lack of clincial experience. I will have had a very good amount of research experience AS WELL as lots of great neuropsych and social cognitive per-diem testing experience but that doesn't really count as clinical right?
It's been really difficult for me to find a volunteer clinical experience that I can engage in during the weekends or after normal work hours on weekdays. What do you think? Do I need to make sure I get this in before applying? Is a volunteer hotline enough? Is it better to take a year after my research job ends and engage in some heavy clinical work before applying?
Thanks so much in advance!
