  1. Hi all, I am a Canadian undergraduate student completing my joint Honours degree (with thesis) in Sociology and Psychology. I am, however, writing my thesis on a sociological topic. I am really interested in perusing a career as a school or child psychologist in Canada, and I have several questions to ask people who have applied for psychology programs (anywhere in the world). 1.) My undergraduate GPA is 3.82/4.30. Has anyone received admittance to psychology graduate programs with a similar GPA? 2.) During my second semester of my fourth year (I am in my fifth and final year currently) I had several unfortunate things happen in my life, and I ended up tanking academically. I received a C-, a C+, a B+ and two A's. I usually get straight A's, and I a wondering how seriously this will effect my chances of getting in? I have since steered my ship back on course and have returned to getting straight A's. 3.) I have worked as a research assistant for three different sociologist, I have worked in a psychology lab and I have help a few TA positions. Is it essential that I get a publication in addition to my current experience? 4.) Is it normal to take a couple years off before beginning psychology graduate school? If I do this, I will be 25 when I begin graduate school, and that feels sort of too late? Thanks everyone!
