Pre req for DPT program

Just wondering how did everyone do in physics and chemistry classes. I am still waiting for my number 1 school and am worried or I won't get in because of my chemistry and physics grades. So far I have B in chem I, B- in chem II, and B in physics I, currently taking physics II.

What did you guys get in physics and chem classes? and do you think that those grades could effect my chances of getting in. I did do well in A&P.

Don't be too worried about those grades. Chem and Physics are hard classes, and they don't expect you to have straight A's in them. I got accepted to a PT program and have an A- in Chem I, B in Chem II, C+ in Physics I, and am also currently taking Physics II. If you rock out in Physics II, you should be fine. And you did well in A+P too, which I see as more important. Good luck!

I agree that Chem is not too important, with Physics being a bit more useful in learning biomechanics, etc once in PT school.

I wouldnt stress about it too much. If you had C's maybe it would be a diff story.

For what its worth I had A's in both Chem and Physics, with B's in Organic Chem

I was accepted to my #1

I'm feeling the pressure too. Chem II is kicking my butt right now. Got an A in Chem I though. My problem is I took a year off where I took other prereqs. Now I'm learning new stuff and reviewing old and I feel like I'm constantly behind. I should do well in the end because I pretty much study a lot because I'm paranoid that I won't get into a DPT program. I haven't taken Physics yet. I guess I just have to stay positive.👍
