Where do you want to go?

You’re probably gonna need to take the GRE unless the in state public schools don’t require it, or you just wanna attend a private expensive school. You have good stats but get some interests and join a club or organization so you have some interesting experiences.

The schools that I am applying to don't require the GREs

 

[Mr.Smile12]

Are any of these public schools where you have in-state status?

I think you will be totally fine, dont let what other people say on this forum discourage you. I got into all my top schools with those stats. Just make sure you put thought and effort into your application questions!

These are good stats, especially with volunteering experience. Just make sure to sell yourself in the interviews and essays. Do some soul searching and understand why you want to be a PT. This will make you stand out more so than someone who says "I went to PT for X reason and liked it" or wanting to help people. I remember reading a lot of this type of advice while applying but it's true.

Only other advice I'd give is to maybe get one more setting to shadow in (I did OP, SNF, acute). See if any other specialties interest you instead of outpatient as well. a lot of OP PTs get burnt out b/c insurance and productivity demands especially in mills.

Not sure if any of those are in-state, but typically in state has higher rates of acceptance.
