The Maryland 1 is so weird. I'm still not sure what the utility of it is for them if they've already admitted you.
Previous coursework just means that you took a class in undergrad that covered developmental psychology and another that covered social psych. If those were the names, that makes it easier to prove equivalency, and they may ask for syllabi if the content was covered but the school just named it something weird. 

Lol I feel that - love those schools but my French is abysmal. Re contacting supervisors . . . I also am tempted to jump the gun and email them, but I think I will wait until August for my few top ones and then September for any others (depending on the responses from my first batch of emails)!

mid-late august yielded a decent hit rate last time, if anything, they'll let you know when to follow up if they're unsure as to whether they'll be taking on a student or not.
 

Hi everyone! Thanks for making this forum. ?
I am interested in applying to the University of Toronto’s school and clinical child MA program (and then continue on in their PhD program, ideally). I am from the U.S. and don’t know much about the university system in Canada. My partner just accepted a faculty position at UofT, hence the reason for the move lol. 
 
I know that programs are very competitive. I am very excited about the possibility of doing a combined school/clinical program. 
 
A little bit about me: I’m currently a research assistant at a Harvard affiliated hospital working on a study examining the etiology of trauma-spectrum disorders. I received my masters in human development and psychology from Harvard’s Graduate School of Education last spring.  Previously, I taught special education through Teach for America. Some areas of potential weakness for me- haven’t taken the psych GRE test, my GRE quant score is in the 55th %tile, and my bachelor’s is not in psychology (it’s in English and multicultural gender studies).
I look forward to this forum being a supportive space, and look forward to learning from you all and getting to know you more!
 

Hello guys! Excited to see this thread ? I want to apply this fall to some neuropsych related labs, right now my list includes UBC, Waterloo, Dalhousie and UdeM (if can I boost my French in the coming months, that is!) 
Re: psych subject test: ETS don't have an online version yet but hopefully they'll have one soon! I need to write it as well.
Also when do you guys think is a good time to start contacting potential supervisors? I'm also getting bored under the quarantine, but I don't want to email them too early that the emails fall between the cracks.

I emailed around June, but lots of supervisors don't know if they're taking students that early on (b/c funding, etc). So good practice would be mid-August to sometime in Sept. If you can refrain from emailing the first week of classes (so it won't get buried in the new semester rush), that would be optimal!

Hey no I was not, I live in the UK and I have been eagerly waiting updates on subject tests. I am hoping they will become available online like the GRE general?
