Hi guys I'm just starting to look into PT. To be honest I was planning on attending PA school but after 2 years to applying I'm starting to look into other professions I find intriguing.
With my stats its nearly impossible to be accepted into PA schools ( found that out the hard way). Before spending money and time into PT schools I just wanted some opinions on whether I have a chance at PT schools or should I look into something else.
Undergrad- Biology
cGPA- 3.22 ( after retaking some classes post bacc)
sGPA - 3.20 (after retaking some classes post bacc)
GRE 51% in verbal 49% in quantitative and 40% writing
Experience- Patient care associate in the trauma and surgery floor. I work with some great PTs on the floor.
EMT
Scribe
Free clinic (intake and med room)
After doing more research I will start cold calling some clinics and nursing homes to see if I can shadow a PT
I will also be volunteering at the Rehab floor in my hospital and shadowing some PT there as well
Is LOR from a professor necessary because after 3 yrs of graduating I don't have contact with any professors. And don't believe they remember me. I can get a LOR from some PTs
Any advice is appreciated. Thanks
