pre-physical therapy

Hi Everyone I volunteered in a hospital and a private clinic 2 years ago when I was not sure to pursue the filed physical therapy. Therefore I did not keep a log with recording types of patient I saw and how many hours I spent in each area. Recently, I asked the manager physical therapist to...

Hey Guys, I'm an athletic trainer planning to apply to schools this fall. I'll most likely have a weak GPA (3.4 overall/3.2 pre-req) once I finish my summer classes. I took the GRE a couple of weeks ago and got a 157 VR, 149 QR and 4.0 Analytic. I worked in a couple of PT clinics for a little...

So, I spent 5 years in college because I switched major to Kinesiology late in Senior year but I was a Bio major before so some classes transfer. My overall...

I am currently an undergrad bio major at Rutgers University and just calculated my science GPA and it is low as hell! My overall GPA is a 3.1 but my science GPA is a 2.3! I failed Orgo twice before finally passing with a C. I've basically gotten C's in nearly all of my science classes except...

Hello, I know there are a lot of reapplying posts but I couldn't seem to find one similar to me. I applied this year to 11 DPT schools, I interviewed at 4, and got waitlisted at 4 and am confident I won't get into any. I have a cumulative GPA of around 3.4-3.5 and my last 90 credits were 3.8. I...

I got accepted to the dpt program a few months ago, anyone else?

Hi All, Have anyone decided to accept multiple DPT offers to, later on, attend the school that provides the best Financial Aid package? I understand that this can raise an ethical dilemma. The sooner I deny an offer, the sooner the school can contact a waitlist applicant. I got in two state...

I graduated a year ago from a four-year university but didn't so well GPA-wise. I was unsure of what career path at the time and didn't really have a clear sense of direction. For the past year I've been retaking my pre-requisites for PT school at a local community college but I don't feel as if...

I am a sophomore and have recently switched from Biology to Pre-Physical Therapy. Despite my decent grades (As-B+s), I feared my upper level Biology classes, as I thought I didn't have much interest in most of them, and didn't want a bad GPA. I was especially affected by my Genetics lecture and...

Has anyone heard from Rutgers South DPT regarding their acceptance? I interviewed on January 4th and haven't heard anything from them yet. I know they had said during the interview that we would hear back by the end of the month. Just curious if anyone's been accepted yet!

Does anyone know any details about the priority waitlist compared to the regular waitlist?

Hey everybody, I was just recently accepted to NIU and wanted to see who else was accepted/attending.

Hello, I need some advice on my future and any help would be appreciated, thanks. So I am in ROTC right now as a Junior with no military obligation yet, but I will have to go through an extra year of school to get my undergrad because of so many credit hours if I want to do ROTC or I could drop...

Hey, everyone! I've been killing myself all week trying to find schools that offer summer research opportunities for pre-PT students. Does anyone know of any? The real trouble I've been running into is the fact that I'm not an undergrad anymore, and most research programs are designed for...

Can anyone post their stats who have been accepted into PT schools in Florida?

So I just received my GRE scores: Verbal = 157, Quant = 149, and Written = 4.5 The schools I am looking at ask for a 300 combined or at least 150 on both portions. I truly hate studying for standardized tests and I know that schools look at everything, so should I attempt another taking of the...

I recently interviewed at MSU, and I was wondering if anyone has heard back yet regarding their acceptance? If so, how long after the interview did you find out?

If a school asks for 2 letters of recommendation can you send a additional letter? Do you think they will look at all letters or randomly choose 2 they asked for? Not sure if it is seen as annoying to the academic committee or if they wouldn't mind it? Any insight will be greatly appreciated...
