Hello! I'm curious to see how much time per week people spend on their coursework in PT school. Most schools do class 8am-5pm Monday to Friday. I'm guessing a few hours of studying after. And then more homework and studying on the weekend. I know it will be different for everyone, but I'm trying to get a grasp on what my life will be like starting next fall. I feel like in undergrad I spend an average of 25-30 hours per week on school(class time+studying/homework); granted some weeks are more some weeks are less. And depends on the semester.
I'm hearing that a lot of DPT students are in the 60-70 hours per week range, including the ~40 hours per week in class. i'm curious! Trying to make a schedule that will at least give me 2-3 hours of free time per week lol. There's also eating, hygiene, etc as well on top of course. I know it depends on the student, semester, week, etc, but i'm trying to get a ball park range for reference.
Let me know what your DPT schedule is/was like! Thanks so much!
