I am wondering whether and which courses I have taken in my master's in rehabilitation & community counseling program (CACREP/CORE accredited) would be considered as acceptable prerequisite requirements for a doctoral program in clinical psychology?
Below is a list of courses that through exploration I have come to understand are the main courses that psych doc programs would like to see applicants have completed:
Most important:
Statistics
Experimental Methods/Research Design
Lab Course
Abnormal Psychology
Developmental Psychology/Child Development
Personality Psychology
Other Important Courses
Cognitive Psychology
History of Psychology
Social Psychology
Psychological Testing and Measurement
Psychology of Learning
Sensation and Perception
Physiological Psychology
Now, here is a list of all the classes I took in my master's program. Which correlate, and what do I lack that would be worthwhile completing to boost my chances of acceptance to a clinical psych program? List below with course titles and credits:
Introduction to Professional Counseling 3
Foundations of Mental Health Counseling 3
Introduction to Rehabilitation Counseling 3
Counseling Theories (history psychodynamic through contemporary theories) 3
Counseling Assessment (covered major psych and intelligence tests, and scoring and statistical 3
