This is my second time applying to PhD programs, so if I don't get in anywhere this time, I'm going to seriously consider whether Clinical Psychology is really a career I want to do. I'm also considering taking a few years off and just working as a lab manager/research analyst/etc, but I'm already in my mid 20s and don't want to be 40 when I finally get a PhD.
I just feel anxious because I'm really passionate about research and I've made so much progress since my days as an undergrad. Apparently, all of that progress wasn't good enough to get me even one interview with my top choices.
