To become a clinical psychologist do u have to b good in math?

Answer 1

You don't have to be a mathematician, engineer, or physicist. But you do have to have some knowledge of math. To complete an undergraduate math program, you usually have to complete a liberal arts math class (this can be easy or hard, usually depending on your placement test scores). You will also be required to take a research design and statistics course, which is very heavy in math. However, if you did okay in algebra, statistics shouldn't be too painful.

Answer 2

Do you have to take some kind of math, absolutely, yes. Do you have to be good? Depends on what you define as good. Many graduate and some undergraduate classes will not let you make less than a B in any courses required for your major. Does making a B mean you are good, not really, it just means you worked hard to make the grade you needed to, and have enough understanding in each area, that you can use it effectively when and if the time comes. I am horrible in math, but I was able to make B's in all my math related courses, it took alot of focus and practice to get through. I go back to my old books when I need to and I ask my colleagues for help.

Answer 3

My dad is a psychologist and he saved some of his books from like 100 years ago when he was studying. There is a great emphasis on math, statistics and logistics. I think it's still like that today.
You obviously have to have an analytical mind.

Answer 4

Absolutely. Calculus and finite mathematics are very important. However, you have to have a really strong knowledge of statistics before you can get your doctorate.
