We assessed the relationship between "U.S. News and World Report" 2008 rankings of clinical psychology doctoral programs and scores earned by graduates on the Examination for Professional Practice in Psychology (EPPP). For the top 25 programs, relationship between ranking and EPPP scores was not significant, r[subscript s] = -0.28. EPPP scores were computed by region (i.e., West, Midwest, South, and Northeast) to determine if geographic differences existed in terms of test performance, but none were found. The number of applications received and acceptance rates were computed for schools by region. Programs in the Midwest received significantly fewer applications, but reported significantly higher acceptance rates. The implications of this finding are discussed. (Contains 4 tables.)
