Advice for a late time PT switch

So I was a pre medical student until christmas of last year and I decided that I wanted to pursue physical therapy instead. So my GPA is lower than I'd like 3.27 and I take the GRE this June, but by the time applications open in florida I'll only have around 100 hours. I need a little advice on if I even have a chance for a florida PT school.

I was in a similar situation, maybe my old post can help. We've got some good, encouraging people here on this board. 🙂

Is your overall GPA 3.27 or your pre-requisite GPA 3.27? Your pre-req GPA matters most so keep that above 3.5. Don't worry too much about the overal GPAl. Do well on the GRE (especially the qualitative). I know UF wants applicants to have observation hours in three different settings. 100 hours in one outpatient, one inpatient, and one SNF will suffice.
