Pretty good

I just finished the application process for PhD programs and I read through this book afterward. It has good info although I feel that the book put out by APA is more informative (Getting In: A Step-by-Step Plan for Gaining Admission to Graduate School in Psychology).

A must have guide!

This book provides a wealth of information in a concise way. It answers any question a student could possibly have about preparing for grad study in psychology. In fact, it prepares students with questions they may not have thought to ask! The timetable for grad study preparation is very useful. The book is an easy read and the best reference for getting ready for grad school in psychology. It offers everything you need in a handy format. I felt so much more prepared after reading this book.

A great reference for a tough process

I consulted this book from freshman year all the way up to the ominous interviews and beyond. The questions relate to EVERYTHING. There are even helpful appendices. I would definitely recommend this book for a novice apply to psychology graduate programs.
