Like most undergrad seniors in psych, I'm kind of freaking out this time of year. In short, I was wondering what you all think of my approach. Here's my applicant details.....
GPA: 3.775 (GPA in psych: 3.9)
Major: Psychology
Minor: Biology
GRE: 1150 (640 Q, 510 V, 4 AW)
Psych GRE: Not sure what I got yet, but I imagine I did well
Research Experience: 3 years (neuroscience, both with rats and humans)
Clinical Experience: Little to none (had to pay for school on my own, no time)
Letters: strong (nothing that would hurt me at least)
My goal is to be a clinical neuropsychologist. I've got a list of about twenty programs that will help me achieve this (contacted profs too, they are looking for a student).
I've taken a lot of neuroscience courses (both in psych and bio). I was thinking my approach would be to emphasize the scientest part of the scientist practitioner model. I am currenlty working on my senior thesis.
I would like to work with patients with traumatic brain injury, so I think emphasizing my experience and knowledge in neuroscience and neuroanatomy would be helpful.
Anyway, if you can make sense of my frantic typing on have an opinion any sort of stance I should take to try to "fit" different kinds of faculty members, please share.
Thanks!
