I took introduction to statistics course awhile ago and I am now wondering if this is considered an appropriate course to fulfill the prereq for most PT programs. Can anyone confirm this for me. thank you for your time.
 
I would say check with the colleges you're applying to. In this instance, I feel like this would be comparable to an intro to chem 1 class instead of general chem 1. I'm tempted to say it may not be considered the right pre-req, but maybe some schools will be more lenient and accept it? I'd still check or even possibly plan taking statistics just in case.
 
I have not seen a school where introductory to statistics would not fill it's requirement. It's usually the same as biostats, social science stats and every other general statistics course.
