Hey, I joined literally 5 minutes ago just to ask this question, so forgive me if I'm in the wrong place. About me: I'm a rising senior at Yale majoring in Psychology, with a cumulative 3.49 GPA (didn't have a great freshman year, decided pre-med isn't for me, and every semester since has been >3.7). I've worked in the same autism research lab since freshman year, have been first author on two posters and listed on three additional ones, might be on a paper before I graduate, and I was a TA for a statistics in psychology class last semester. My question is: am I a competitive enough candidate to apply to Clinical Psych PhD programs right out of undergrad? My top programs right now are Ohio State, University of Washington, UConn, and UNC Chapel Hill, with my list growing as I continue to do more research. (Cambridge is on the list as well, but that may TRULY be a pipe dream). I have other avenues I could pursue postgrad (most of them being a one-year master's at a UK/Irish university, possibly through a Fulbright, and I'm also looking at the postgrad fellowship at Emory's Marcus Autism Research Center). Should I give it a shot and apply, or would it not be worth it? Thanks! Edit: my GRE was 162V/159Q if that's relevant
