Help Choosing an Area of Study When My Major Is Physical Therapy.?

by Chris Olson (illustrator, writer, blogger) Question by not sure: Help choosing an area of study when my major is Physical Therapy.? I am attending NIU which is in Illinois, and i am majoring in pre-physical therapy as a sophomore right now. The program here is really difficult to get into, and i was told to choose an area of study to persue incase i dont get into the program. Im really interested in not only physical therapy but kinesiology as well…is it possible to have that as my minor at the same time or would it be too much work? I was also wondering, when i apply for the program my junior year, is it reccomended to apply to other schools at the same time, or wait until i graduate with a degree in something first? Ive asked so many people and even the advisors are very unhelpful about this situation. Read more... ...
