Hello everyone! Long time lurker of the forum and I decided to take the plunge in hopes of a little advisement.
A little background:
I graduated in May 2009 with a degree in Business Management/Marketing. During school I really didn't know what I wanted to do, so business just seemed like a 'safe' major at the time. Fast forwards to today, the rat race of business is not for me. Through a series of events over the past 6 months or so I've come to realize that I have a passion and desire to pursue physical therapy 110%, and I fully intend to.
That said, coming from an unrelated undergrad I have several pre-req's to knock out:
Bio I & II
Chem I & II
Physics I & II
Anatomy and Phys I & II
Exercise Physiology
I would love to be able to apply next year in Fall 2012 and believe it's reasonable. I am shooting for all A's in the courses listed and know I'm fully capable (I'm also a realist and know that I will have to work my butt off).
So my question: I have Fall, Spring, and Summer to finish the courses listed below. I'm thinking:
Fall/Spring
Bio
Chem
Anatomy (must take before I can enroll in exercise phys)
Summer - both terms
Physics
Exercise Phys
Are there any suggestions to this schedule? Am I rushing things too much? Any suggestions are appreciated!
Thank you very much for any help / insight. Pursuing PT is a huge decision for me and I just want to make sure I'm going about it the best way possible.
