Abstract
The Graduate Record Exam, Miller's Analogies, and GPA have long been used as composite parts of admissions requirements to graduate schools in psychology. Questions have been raised about the predictive validity of these standardized scores for performance in professional schools. 58 graduate students in the Hahnemann Psy. D. program were followed, comparing their three scores submitted on admission to their scores achieved in a course in Rorschach scoring. The relationship between performance in the course and these standardized measures was not significant. The three scores did not predict achievement of Rorschach scoring skills. Limitations of the present study are discussed with reference to the need for more research relating entrance requirements to specific competencies.
