One thing I have learned significantly from being an non-traditional, career changing individual is how important networking seems to be in order to help you succeed in a career. It seems these days its hard to find a job unless you know someone where you want to work.
Assuming you have taken the correct pre-reqs, met the minimum GPAs, and observation hours, has anyone networked through the faculty of their desired school to help them get admission into the school of thier dreams? It is not feasible or realistic for you to do this at all the schools you apply, but if there is one school YOU must go to, has anyone reached out to the faculty for advice, guidance, met with them to get your application recongized?
With DPT becoming some competitive, anything to stand out is always a plus. I know i cannot go back and retake every single class I got a C in undergrad to raise my GPA to a 4.0 like some applicants. I did not know i wanted to do DPT when I got my undergrad and did my first career. Life happened and my wants and desires did a 180.
Any thoughts?
