I'm accepted into a college into the 6 year physical therapy program! I'm so excited but also nervous lol. I would really enjoy to work as a pediatric physical therapist!

during your job, do you ever feel like your unsure of doing something, or maybe doing a certain stretch or something will hurt the patient??

what if your major career is in physical therapy but the college that you are going into doesnt have the program? In august I will be a freshman in a community college taking a pre-clinical track & then transfering to a university that provides the program.. Question is that a waste of time in school?

I actually wanted to go into art but I new nothing would make me any money doing it and where I live no one even knows how to use a computer properly. I guess medical is my only option. I don't even know If it's something I want to do.

He could actually explain what classes you need to take instead of bragging about his equipment. But that is just me.
