I'm a senior majoring in Psychology. I originally started out as a chemistry major and my grades were sub-par to say the least. I had a 2.9 GPA after my 2nd year but then switched majors and now I plan to graduate with a 3.5 and with departmental distinction (I earned a 4.0 my last 5 semesters). I have extensive research experience. Here's a brief summary: - Presented posters at several conference (2 of them national) - 3.5 years as a paid research assistant at my University's medical department (doing health psychology research) - Conducted 2 independent studies - Published manuscript (first author) - 1 Summer Research Program - 1 year as a Clinical Research Coordinator at a top 10 research University. - 3 semesters as a psychology research assistant at school - Awarded a supplement grant - A 2nd publication (as a third author) is in progress I plan on pursuing a PhD in clinical psychology. I'm taking the GRE this upcoming Summer and plan to apply Fall of 2015. Also, I'm not sure if this matters but I'm a 23 year old Hispanic male. My dream programs are in Berkeley and Washington but I don't know if I would be competitive enough to apply given my GPA. Any thoughts or advice?
