So I'm applying to PT school this summer, and I'm insecure about all the things most people are insecure about: GPA, EC's, GRE etc. However, there is one insecurity that seems to be on my mind more than the rest, although it's kinda dumb.
I have a rare skin disease called keloid disorder, meaning I have a good amount gross looking keloids on my shoulders and back. It's not as bad as some of the images you can find on google images, however it's still pretty bad. I hear in physical therapy school you'll have to be in class without your shirt and stuff, and that's honestly something I greatly fear, as not many people know of my disorder outside of few close friends and parents.
I'm really just wondering if it's true that you'll have to be without your shirt for alot of the classes in PT school, and if it would be possible for me to refuse to take off my shirt etc.
I know this sounds kinda dumb, but it's genuinely an insecurity of mine.
Thanks.
