  1. I'm going to preface my thoughts by saying I am no expert on the admissions process, so I could be off base here. That being said, I would argue the breakdown of desirable experience looks like this: Ph.D.: 1. Research, clinically oriented, then 2. Clinical experience, especially within the population of interest Psy.D.: 1. Clinical experience, population of interest, then 2. Research experience, general I cannot speak to neuropsychology at all. That being said, I think it's important to keep in mind that a Ph.D. is a research degree at the end of the day. Ph.D. programs in general want to ensure you understand how to conduct research and, perhaps more importantly, you understand the literature itself. You want to show a strong theoretical understanding that drives your research work. With this in mind, I would argue the clinical research coordinator, perhaps counterintuitively, looks better. That being said, I feel weird offering advice on a process I barely understand that steers you away from a substantial pay increase. Ultimately the decision will have to be yours. Perhaps you should speak with available mentors about what they think?
  2. I've received an interview invite from UToledo for clinical, though I didn't see anyone else post about it on the results page yet.
  3. My whole goal this application season was to land one interview. I'm stoked I did it. School: University of Toledo Type: Clinical PhD Date of invite: Dec. 14th Type of invite: Email from admissions coordinator; CC'd POI and DCT Interview date(s): Feb. 1 or Feb. 4. I'm going Feb. 1 Edit: @Jamesmp, congrats on the invite to Kent! I applied to them as well. Evidently some people have received invites and rejections already; I'm still waiting to hear back from them but I'm not sweating it too much.
  4. I'd say this was a good move. I think what a lot of clinical applicants forget is that, at the end of the day, a Ph.D. is a research program. I'd argue schools are interested in training you to perform clinical work their way. They want to know you can conduct research; they will take care of beefing up your clinical work. All that is to say you probably cannot go too far toward emphasizing research.
