Hi everyone,
So, I've finally reached the year I can apply to PT schools. While I'm extremely excited, I am equally nervous. I realize I am not the most competitive applicant, and I'm so scared my chance of getting in somewhere is zero. I have applied to many schools. Here are my stats:
GPA: 3.57
Major: kinesiology exercise science
Minor: nutrition
Prerequisite GPA: 3.28-3.3 (I have two Cs in general chem--weak spot)
Hours: 175; pediatric, geriatric, ortho, sports (in two different states, but all outpatient--trying to get inpatient squeezed in this semester)
GRE: 148 Q, 153 V, 4 AW (on the low end:/ )
I have experience as a research assistant for a physical therapist as well as a former professor. I don't know if this will give me an edge or not.
Also, I still need to take physics 1 and 2. I had to withdraw from physics twice last year due to unusual and unfortunate circumstance with my family, but I addressed this in my application. I am going full force with the class now, and am off to a pretty good start.
Sorry for the rambling; I'm so nervous, and I would really appreciate some advice from all of you.
Good luck to all this application cycle!
Thank you in advance
