Thanks to all of you who responded to my initial question. Interesting stuff about the differrences in design between the MFT and the GRE. I guess I had neglected to consider their different designs. We do not have a surfeit of people wanting to teach Intro Psych now, but have had in the past. I guess my original logic included the fact that when I graduated oh so many long years ago i was told that the best way to study for the gre subejct test was to re-read your intro psych textbook. In point of fact, I'm not so confident about how well I would do on the test. Doing well requires pretty broad familiarity across a very broad field. I think like many here, my years of special concentration on a subset of the topics covered in a typical intro psych course would make me do well in some topics while not performing so well on those topics I've neglected to keep up on in 15 years. I'd guess that perhaps taking the MFT could be useful not as a screen, but by using the scores on the subscales, a prospective instructor could find out where he/she is relatively weak, and then spend some time studying up. Thanks again for your comments, Mike Donnelly
