When I enter a program I will be 25 or 26, depending on my application season! I know someone who was almost 30 when she entered! No worries about age

Thanks so much for your support and guidance!

I have not begun to research programs. I know that I am definitely interested in the program at Drexel. I will be attending the SPP conference in the next month, and I hope to use this experience to begin to network with some future PI's for grad school.

I am looking to apply to clinical phd programs for the fall 2017. I am currently working at a children's hospital as a clinical research assistant. I will be in my current position approximately 2 years by the time of application submission/possible interviews. My undergraduate gpa was 3.63 with a major in psychology and a minor in counseling and human services. I can't look up my major gpa, but it was a little higher than my overall gpa. My gre scores aren't spectacular, but I have been told that gre scores aren't the most important aspect of my application. V = 147, Q = 150, Writing- 4.5 I could take the GRE again this summer, but I would like to avoid that if possible. As of now, I have 5 conference presentations with a few more to come. I will have at least 1 publication, and 2 more in the works by the time of application submission I have worked as an RA for approximately 4 years (2 as an undergraduate and 2 as a clinical research assistant) all under relevant PI's (interested in pediatric psychology) I also will have no problem getting 3 strong letters of recommendation. Thoughts? Thanks!
