[quote=Anonymous]School psychology is an in demand career and not very well-known. The public education system is certainly not selling itself as a desirable sector to enter right now, but (as a former teacher) work life balance is way better as a school psychologist than being a teacher. I'll never get rich but I'm satisfied with my pay ($90k) especially when considering the other masters-level careers I could've gotten in psychology (i.e., social worker, ABA therapist, etc.) or as a teacher. It's a 3 year program with your last year being a full time internship (some districts offer full pay, some a stipend, some unpaid...but fortunately that's becoming less common). Clinical psych PhD programs are harder to get into in medical school, and generally the career isn't all that high paying given the amount of education required.[/quote]
