I got bad grades throughout high school. I am currently getting ready to go into the local community college's two year transfer program (I graduate from high school in a few months). I am really dreaming of possibly getting a psyd. It's going to be a lot of work but I think if I keep the dream in focus it's attainable. But, the downside of my bad grades in high school is I cannot get into a possibly better college. The college I will be transferring to is James Madison University (I live in the city that this University is in) and the local community college has great ties and great programs with JMU for transfer students. JMU does have a psychology major program, they do have a graduate school for it, so everything I need is available there. But, if I am shooting to be a clinical psychologist am I already 'screwed'? Do I need to have gone to a much better University that is widely known for their great psych major programs?

Hoping to look forward to your responses.
