I'm a general pre-health student at the moment, not 100% sure which field I want to go into yet, but from what I've researched so far, PT is one of my top choices. The non-pretentious, laidback atmosphere and high level of relationship building really appeal to me.
But I have a question about how GPA is calculated.
I know that for med school and dental school they look at your overall GPA and your science (BCPM) GPA. It seems that PT schools break it down into overall GPA and prereq GPA. But I've noticed that most PT schools list things like psychology and English as prereqs. So are classes like psych and English actually included in the prereq GPA? Or is more like the BCPM model used for other professional programs?
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but the term "prereq GPA" used in place of "science GPA" threw me off...
