Chloe’s Answer

That's great you are thinking about applying to PT programs for college! A few great jobs you can have while finishing high school that will give you exposure to different populations and practice settings and also looks great on college applications. You can volunteer with a clinic or hospital, you can become a rehab aide, or even become a nursing aide. Those jobs will put you in a great place. Goodluck!

Tiffany’s Answer

Your reason for pursuing the field is wonderful! You may want to expose yourself to which populations PT would work with? Do you prefer working with children or healing those with an injury? Getting experience being around those populations may help you gain a greater experience and understanding of the type of PT you feel most passionate about.

It is awesome that you are interested in this field! It sounds like you have an amazing reason for wanting to pursue this path. As for jobs that may help you get a feel for the type of things you will learn and do in both school and practice you could look for jobs at local physcial therapy clinics. Working as a rehabilitation aide of technician is a great resume builder and can allow you to see techniques in practice before/while learning them in class.
