I thought it was funny because I NEVER dream about religious life or nuns! My psychological evaluation in in TWO WEEKS!!!! EEEK![/quote] As others have said -- don't worry about the psych eval. I went through it for the 1st community I entered ... it went fine (well, fine enough anyway so that I could enter postulancy). In fact -- I'm not sure if anything was flagged because the community did not share the results, but I figured that if there was a problem they'd tell me.

There is a follow-up meeting with Sister Lois about the findings of the evaluation as part of the application process. So I am required to know my weaknesses and strengths... it's just a scary thing to look reality in the face... All of your words are comforting me! Thank you!

I love all the updates the sisters are doing on their websites. I took summer courses at a parish in Mishawaka the past two summers and am very bummed to not be going up this summer. I used to pray in the sisters' chapel! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the lords sheep Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 All of my friends have said there really wasn't much to the psych evaluation. One of my friends said the Doctor asker her a lot of questions about what she was expecting from community life, what she saw as joys and challenges and things like that. They just want to make sure you are grounded in reality about what the religious life is. Good luck!! In Jesus and Mary, Lauren Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
be_thou_my_vision Posted June 7, 2007 Author Share Posted June 7, 2007 Okay, the phone interview was not as bad as I thought it would be. She just asked me questions about my past and my discernment. Sooooooo... next weekend I will drive up to Mishawaka, then to Alma, and have a face-to-face interview with Sister Marysia. That will be the "official" psychological evaluation!
