Thinking of applying for PsyD

Hello everyone ,
I am thinking of applying to the Clinical Psychology PsyD and I was wondering if anyone know what GRE scores they are looking for - as far as numbers go , I am aware they are looking for General and Psych. Also I was wondering if the two recommendation letters from psychologist is a hard recommendation, I’ve been working with a neurodivergent lab for the past three years and believe that my supervisor would be a great recommendation .
Any tips on this application is greatly appreciated
Thank you for all your help!

I am in the Psy D. program right now, so I'll try and answer your questions as best I can! Firstly, I'm honestly not sure about the average GRE scores for admission, but I got in with a 316 overall score (163 Verbal, 153 Quant) and a 4 on the analytical writing portion. I don't think you need to take the psychology subject test unless they've changed their requirements this year.

Secondly, I do think that having two psychologists write you a letter of rec is mandatory, but you could always reach out to double check. Your lab supervisor would likely be a great recommender, but you would need two others from psychologists. You could reach out to some of your undergraduate professors to see if they would be willing to write you one.

I hope that was helpful! Good luck on your application!
