Getting ready for psychology masters interviews
Hello, I'm unsure if you still use this RUclips account. I would like to email you about the clinical board exam if it's possible. Hoping you see this and thank you kindly.
Thank you so much I needed this , I am going to my interview this week I really needed this . I am so scared
All the best, break a leg ❤

My wife
Thanks for the info, currently doing BCom IOP, hoping to do an M in Clin Psychology, your video is informative
But yes i agree my mental health went down a bit in uk
I didnt have a problem dating in UK. You have to be open to dating apps
I am going for an interview next week and I feel a bit confident after watching this. Crossing my fingers, hope to come with good news on the comment😅
I have an interview too next week and so anxious😢
Hi gal I thank you for the tips, whish I can have your contact no
Hi Thank you for the video ❤. Does anyone know what the selection process is like at the university of Pretoria for clinical psychology?
Hi Boipelo Please DM me on insta, I'll connect you with someone who recently went through it
can u please share your contact number?
So informative and helpful! Thank you
You are so welcome!
Wow thank you so much for your kindness ❤
You are so welcome
❤❤wow so inspired well done ✅👌
Thank you so much 😀
Hi there! I just came across your channel. Does the way you dress when going to the interview matter? Must you dress formal?
Hi Sindi, yes dress form or at least smart, it goes a long way.
Woww thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
do we need to provide a letter from the University stating that the medium of instruction is English?
Yes, that's important because if you don't and also indicate English is not your first language, you will need to write the English test.
Sis how are you from Matat and you're not used to cold weather? 😂
In my defence it's only the mornings and evenings that are cold in Matat when the sun comes up it gets warmer. Here, there's no sun coming up it's the ice cold wind from the mountains we get and that's all day for 3 to 4 months then it stays cold the rest of the year and just never really gets warm and the Matat warm weather breaks make the winters bearable 😅
@@PsychIRL oh man. Hope you'll get used to it.
Thank you so much for this video. It's very helpful.
Happy to hear you found this helpful 😊
Can you enlighten me more on the research paper?
My masters research was on male adulthood diagnosis of ASD
Hi - so sorry you had such a lonely start to living in the UK. Yes, we Brits do tend to be reserved (in the South at least, people tend to be friendlier up North) that must've been tough. Very glad to hear things are looking up now!
Hey hey, things are definitely looking up and I’m grateful for it. I’ve learned to show grace to how people are here and that’s made me more understanding and not personalise things. I guess I also navigate spaces very differently than I usually would now that I have this understanding. I need to visit the North more I’ve been consistently hearing good things about it! 😊
@@PsychIRL oh I'm so glad - and yes it's SO not personal it's just sadly how it is down here, I suspect it's down to a general lack of space in the south east, especially London (I'm from South London) but it does thaw eventually! My husband's from the North and when I go up there I'm still taken aback how immediately open people are, it's lovely.
If you’re trying to date British men know that they are kind of dry. They take time to crack compared to some other more forthright countrymen like Americans. Also it sounds like you have a lot of things about the uk you don’t like. If you can’t find ways to talk nicely about British culture it might be hard to connect with a British man. Also I’m not sure whereabouts in the UK you are but cities have different flavors. Generally speaking the north is warmer than the south. Shop staff have made small talk with me my whole life in the north but down south especially in London people might not. I hope you find some ways to enjoy the uk. I hope you make some British friends and learn from them rather than sticking to a South African bubble. I’m British myself and living in South Korea right now and so I get it’s hard. The key is to assimilate and be open minded to the locals ways.
Hey Rebecca, thanks for sharing this. Very open minded about dating so not just focused on trying to date British men and have found some things I’ve appreciated which has made the experience meaningful. Focused on the negatives because those felt like things that made it harder that I hadn’t anticipated but like I said it gets better. Yes, the South isn’t the friendliest which is where I’m based and coloured my experience. Hope you’re also finding ways to make the most of your experience, I’ve had friends live in South Korea for several years and described having more challenging experiences than I could even begin to imagine.
Perfect account of living in the UK. it's not easy - I wouldn't advice anyone come especially now out of Europe
I don’t I think not advising is a strong stance, I always encourage people to because our experiences are very different and they might be shied away from something they’d experience completely differently but I do share some more realistic perspectives of what those who went before them have shared as being their experience so they can approach it with an openness of knowing that if things get hard they are not alone.
Hello, get thick fluffy socks, thermals - camisoles/ vest , warm trousers- get the ones which are lined. Uniqlo has a good collection at reasonable prices Shoes go in for trainers which are suitable for hiking / walking. Wear a jumper and socks inside during winters to keep heating bills down. Try and find free activities in your area - there are plenty especially in London.
This is so helpful thank you! I have noticed that trainers do feel warmer than boots which is very different from shoes I’d “go for” in South Africa. I’ve also been living in Uniqlo to be honest but their heat techs (which I was told were the best) didn’t do much even with layering so I double up 😂. The lined thermals are the best but I need oversized pants for those cause they are so thick 😫 but we are learning and I’ll definitely come back to this when the winter starts creeping in so thank you! 😊 When I get to a stage where the heating bill is stressing me, I’ll befriend a hot water bottle although your face still freezes to death even with it 😅
Thank you so much for this informative video. I am an Honours student looking into applying at Nelson Mandela University in PE for Masters in Clinical Psychology. Do you know how the process of selection weeks goes in that institution?
Unfortunately not. All the best with the process, I hope it goes in your favour.
Please I need clear explanation on operant, classical and observation conditioning
Hi Bomi may i have your email address
Thank you for the video. I have been invited to approximately 5 interviews but didn't get the offer. I'm going to use these tips 😊
Hi there, I really hope they help, I know they've really changed how I interview and I often know when I go into an interview whether I'll get the job or note based solely on how I prepare for it. I'll be holding you in mind and wishing you all the best. Congrats for being invited to the interviews despite them not turning out in your favour. It already shows that you qualify for so many jobs and need to make sure that shines through in your interviews.
Hyee I am from.pakistam and I am doing my masters from UK and how to get PhD scholarship in Oxford University
Hi there, for a Clinical Psychology PhD, it's a funded program so when if you get accepted, you are automatically funded but because it's funded by NHS, they unfortunately only accept British citizens. If you are looking more into research PhDs then there's loads of funding opportunities you can find on the internet. Each department and some supervisors also have their own so you get considered for them when they consider your application.
Good video
Please I need tutorials on ethics in psychology
Hi Godwin, ethics is very broad but I'll try see if I can find something to talk through dealing with an ethical dilemma
Please I need tutorials in ethics in psychology
I just searched psychology journey in SA. ….here I am crying 😭 Inspiration in Real life Ma’am ❤️👏🙏🫂 Thank you for sharing this blog with us.❤
this so kind, its heartwarming to hear my journey inspires others
Hey could you do a video on how to fill the professional work experience, be so helpful am stuck.
Sure thing! I'll look into this
Hey girl! Thanks for the video..very helpful. Do you know much about how Griffith University work? I want to study psychology next year and go on to a masters as well. Do you know what the panel there look for in students regarding the interview process? Are they more research focused, person focused....? Thank you! ❤
Hi Polly, unfortunately I don't.
@@PsychIRL Hello, that's okay. Thank you anyway!
Hey. Hope you're doing well. ❤️ I'm currently doing a degree in Social sciences with Anthropology as a major,at Boston City Campus. I really am into the clinical psychology route. How does one go about reaching that level of doing clinical psychology?
In SA you'll need to do an honours and masters to qualify
Thank you for the informative video ❤. I will be starting my first year studying psychology at SACAP and I want to move to the UK hopefully in the second year , do UK universities consider students coming from private institutions to study that side ?
Ohhh how cool 🤗, thanks Vumile all the best for you as well 🫶🏽
Hi Asiphe, I don't see why they shouldn't. If your qualification is recognisable in SA there likely won't be an issue in the UK.
Hey, do you still offer mentorship?
Only through the my NPO
Thank you Bomikazi❤
Hello 😊 I hope you are well. Do you perhaps have a video on the application for an internship in Clinical psychology?
Hi Leo, I don't but I'll create one for internships and work.
Hi, Bomi! Love your videos and IG advocacy! Is it true that PhD in Clinical Psychology is not accepted and only DClinPsy is preferred if applying for Practitioner Psychologist-Clinical Setting? A little disheartened because of what I read. International route. Thank you.
Hi there! thank you for the support truly appreciate it. Mhm I'm not aware of this. Which country are you referring to? I can look into it.
@@PsychIRL Thanks so much! Philippines. Here, we are allowed to practice clinically even upon graduation from masters, talk more of PhD Clinical Psych :( DClinPsy is not very popular here. :(
@@fmsanjuan5309 it's the same for South Africa as well we qualify and practice with a masters. Please. check Facebook and also contact HCPC to see if you qualify
Hello!! Thank you for this video. Any idea whether a postgraduate diploma in psychology in the UK as well as license to practise and Bsc from a foreign recognised university, can make my Hcpc registration possible? I am afraid that it might be rejected ( and the money will be lost too). 🙏 thank you
Hi Anna, if you are qualified as a independent practitioner in your country you are likely to be able to. I'd suggest checking for a Facebook page that has psychologists from your country practicing in the UK. Those pages are invaluable. But if you are South African, only a masters qualification is equivalent.
Hi i donot have a log book .. currently but i do have an official transcript from my college sealed and signed. It states the number of clinical hours completed in each posting and gives a total number of therapy seen by me. Will that be sufficient.
Hey I'd suggest still putting together your own log book that's more detailed to supplement that.
This helped me soo much. Thank you for posting this video!! My anxiety has been ruling over me and I can't do my work for my masters due to fear of failure. Hearing your tips and perspective has meant so much to me ❤
This so heartwarming to hear. You are doing your best and that is worth acknowledging and just remembering that you are not alone and there is help and support available for you! Best wishes for your masters, it's hard but many have went before you and succeeded, you will too!
@@PsychIRL thank you so much:')💕
Hi Bomi, it's been a while, happy new year❤ thank you for this definitely needed it coming into 2024.🥹
Happy new year! Thank you for the support.
Hey.. can u guide about how to write professional experience in hcpc form
There's no set format . I just used my internship and community service logbooks
Hi. With regards to Honours and Masters interviews, do universities ask them face to face or is it online. I know you mentioned this, but I just want to make sure, since this video has aged a few years.
It's in person
Thank you ❤
You're welcome 😊
So can I move to the Uk emmidiatley after high school
yep if you have the resources to
I understand that the competition is quite tough when it comes to being accepted for honours and masters in psychology. If you don’t get accepted for either of them , is there an alternative route that can be taken to still qualify and practice as a psychologist
unfortunately not
