I am international student,finishing my bachelor and master of medicine in China.Now I will do the DPT, because I always have a strong interest in Physiotherapy,but without so much confidence,could some of the DPT students tell me if the 3 years course hard,because many friends said the DPT is difficult to get through.many failed and drop out the course?
What should I prepare now?

Thanks !
 
I think if you were able to successfully make it through a Bachelors and Masters program, you should be fine in a DPT program. As with most health sciences programs, the faculty of most DPT programs really work with all students to make sure they are successful. There may be some classes that you may need some extra help in, but fellow students, professors, and tutors will help you through those classes. Not many people drop out from DPT programs across the nation, I think it is safe to say that probably all schools have > 90% graduation rate.
Good luck with your studies.

You may want to work on your English if you want to be successful in the US. Communication is essential. You could know everything there is to know but if you can't get the message across to your patient it just doesn't matter.
 
Hi. I am from China too. It is glad to know someone from China is also considering DPT program. :laugh:. My question is how can you keep status after graduation. Can we apply H1B visa? Thanks!
