  1. Is there a good resource that explains the different career pathways psychology graduate students can pursue (i.e., pediatric, health psych, assessment-focused, forensic, psychotherapy-focused, primary care, etc...)? #ClinicalPsych #SchoolPsych #CounselingPsych

  2. My #PhD in #clinicalpsych was focused on training future scientists. 12 in my class. From memory:
    50% graduated.
    4 became clinicians (1 in soc wrk)
    1 left bc of pressure of developmental track
    2 left bc of adviser (1 screaming match, 1 just faded out)
    1 just... disappeared
    2 I think profs @ R1 schools?
    2 at teaching-focused universities

    I'm in the last group. Research is seat-of-pants & slow, but I've scratched some out & some is good.

    #Advisers make all the difference.
