Hey everyone,
I'm attempting to pursue a Ph.D. in I/O psychology and was wondering if anyone can offer me any advice as to what programs I have a realistic chance of being accepted to.
GRE: 1260 (580V, 680Q; AW: Not graded yet)
Undergrad GPA: 3.61
Psychology GPA: 3.76
Research Experience: Starting to work with one of the most esteemed faculty here at BGSU. I am seriously concerned that I am starting too little too late. This is a significant concern for me.
LOR: I don't really have an established means for this either. Again this is a significant concern for me.
Additional information (possibly irrelevant): Worked anywhere from 15-20 hours a week since my first semester of my freshmen year. Highly involved in campus organizations and with the University (which I understand is of minimal importance).
I personally have minimal preference as to where I go as long as I get accepted into a reputable program. However, I am highly considering applying to the following programs:
WashU
University of Akron
Purdue
Do I have a shot at any of these schools based on my information? If not, where should I look towards applying? Furthermore, how much of a negative is the fact that I have almost no research experience? What should I do about letters of recommendation?
Thanks for any advice you can offer.
