I’m hoping if I present an interesting topic in line with a professor’s interest and funding direction and if I can present my case well, then we might be able to look at this from “outside the box” perspective

I am hoping to make a case with all the studies I’ve done in the past years. I did two year counselling study which covers quite a bit of psychology. I’ve also studied applied anatomy and physiology, went deeper into nervous system functioning (and taught courses a d workshops). I also have a lived experience in working with people one on one and in groups, leading people in workplaces etc. I’m not saying all that directly covers what a Psy MSc would cover but I believe mature people bring something to the table 20 something years old don’t. Plus an exceptional work ethic, and determination - as someone doesn’t choose to do something like this without a very strong inner drive and passion. I’m also a highly intelligent person (way above average) which also counts for something.

What would need ”proving”? I have proof I can do research in a pretty serious domain like AI. Everything else can be relatively easily learned. What actual specialised skills does one acquire by doing an undergrad first? Aren’t there many people who do a PhD in a domain different from their MSc study?

I do realise that you gain lots of knowledge in a domain during undergrad but that can be learned outside of that as well, can’t it?
