oh, gosh! such a pain!!!! 4 years ago


Amyit's become an ordeal

Well, the faculty members I selected (from the small pool of people who weren’t on sabbatical…) are giving me a hard time because they’re not interested in feminism and the body and technology, and all the things I want to talk about. They’re changing the rules of the game to get me to throw out my interests in favor of theirs. It’s a delicate battle to maintain my integrity and make this exam useful and interesting to me, while also managing their expectations and demands. 4 years ago


nmlinusNot until this summer/fall...but

still a goal…just a somewhat longer term goal. 4 years ago


AmyComps

I have a two-part comprehensive exam. The first part is a clinical position paper in which I outline my approaches various aspects of psychotherapy and psychological theory. In the second part, I choose a list of books and articles in different categories (theoretical background, addressing diversity in psychology, and qualitative research methods) and “learning goals” or questions I hope to respond to in my written exam. That part is the proposal, due 2/16. Then, some faculty members of my choosing submit questions based on my learning goals and book (I’m trying to come up with some very specific learning goals, so my questions will be predictable!), and I have a week to answer them in August. 4 years ago


K SociaFinish my Comps

I’ve just started working on my comprehensive exam, which at the University at Albany School of Criminal Justice, is a quantitative research paper. My goal is to have this defended/passed by May 2009, and submitted for publication by August 2009. Once this happens, I can work on my prospectus… 4 years ago


AmyComprehensive exams

The exam is a requirement to continue with my PhD program. I complete this about one year from now. It’s a lot of writing, intended to demonstrate my mastery of selected materials from different areas (e.g., research methods, theoretical background) as well as to present my clinical position (e.g., what I think therapy is, limitations of my approach, role of cultural diversity in therapy, etc.). Working steadily toward this goal by keeping notes and organizing what I have so far—by the time I get to this, I should know what I want to say and be able to say it well. 4 years ago


rash671Passed

Passed not failed. It was tough and ultimately it showed me that I am coming out of this experience with something to contribute to my field. Unfortunately it supports my M.O. : It’s not procrastination, it’s working well under pressure…. :)
....Off to the DONE file with you! 6 years ago


rash671Well I did it...

It’s done. Nothing else I can do about it. Finished my comps yesterday and now will have to wait 2 weeks to know if I passed or failed. Feel indifferent about it. It’s different from completing an exam – feeling relieved and glad it’s over. I’m not sure how I feel about this. Two weeks is a long time to feel nauseous. 6 years ago
