  1. Thanks for your input! Yeah, that's the thing, I think I would be a good applicant otherwise, but if my application gets thrown in the garbage as soon as I press submit because of some previous low grades, then I guess it doesn't really matter if the rest of my CV is good because nobody will see it... Hopefully if I can do some extra classes I can make sure that at least my last 60 credits are okay. I'm glad there are some other people on here who have been through the same thing!
  2. Hi! I'm planning on applying to clinical psych programs for the next admission cycle, and I was wondering if any current students (or anyone who has gotten interviews / knows current students etc), has had not-stellar undergraduate grades, but has taken extra courses after finishing and managed to make up for it? I graduated a couple of years ago but I had a hard time in my undergrad and my grades definitely show it... I have research experience and a couple of publications, and I've been thinking of taking some extra classes online at Athabasca to show that I've improved and to boost my GPA, but I'm worried that even just having such bad grades on my transcript will prevent me from making it through the first screening process. I know some schools say they only look at the last 2 years, but if I have some *really* bad grades, will that taint my whole application, or is it worth trying to take some extra classes? Has anyone had a similar experience? Thanks!
