hi hru

[@reneli5403]

you’re super pretty omg

[@juliejustdance]

I’ve been watching all their PT school videos even though I personally have no interest in PT.

[@matthewmadsen8123]

hi hru

[@xray114]

I know someone who applied to PT school and didn't get accepted by any of the schools she applied to. Don't know why. She has very high grades and has worked with PTs. She decided to apply to OT schools and had no problem getting accepted. At the time OT schools were a Masters program. They are pretty much the same Job. Now it's Doctorate. She is a traveling OT. She gets 3-6 month contracts throughout the country in the states she is licensed in. She loves it because she loves to travel. She says the pay is very close to a PTs pay would be but she has more versatility.

[@cyriellesaba]

I am a pre-pharmacy student and I will be applying to Pharmacy school in a few months so I can relate to almost everything you were saying😁Hope I will get accepted🤞And good luck to you girls!

I guess it's not something that you did but future people may want to make a mini "form" for the person you shadowed, to physically sign when the hours are done.

[@kateminkler3910]

Are you going to stay in your apartment when you are in pt school?!

Kate Minkler we have resigned our lease for the next year so I think so, but there’s also been a few other options we’ve been considering

[@natalieflores1151]

question: how do you know all of these things? like who told you, idk this makes me nervous but does a college advisor help with this or is it all on my own?

[@kaylaburton8450]

Is the GRE like the ACT where you are tested on all sections or can you take separate tests on each section?

[@MeganandCiera]

Kaylaburton you take the whole thing at once

[@saraturner3449]

I want to become a PT too!!

[@nedzworld6132]

Do y’all caucus?

[@sierramcnulty6275]

Thanks so much for another informative video! ❣️ I hope you guys have felt a big weight come off your shoulders since being accepted. I was wondering what each of your favourite areas to shadow were. Big congrats again :)

[@bebeerin]

what did your sister hailey study in college? just curious

[@MeganandCiera]

Business management with an emphasis in human resources

[@lynn4089]

so proud of you guys!! How did y’all keep a high GPA in undergrad and how are y’all graduating early?

[@MeganandCiera]

We put a lot of time and effort into each of our classes and found ways of studying that worked well for us. We are graduating a year early because we got a year's worth of credits while still in high school.

[@XHollisWood]

Hmmm Excellent and inspiring “Megan & Ciera”. This information will clarify a vast amount of questions students may have, however, have no idea or no individual or may be to shy to ask. THANK YOU for sharing this academic journey the Both of you have taken.👍 Respectfully 🥰 My best to the both of you. I’m confident you will be successful ❤️

[@phdgkos47952]

i got like a 1100 on the SAT but there was like a writing portion or somthin added? ?? it doesnt matter, dont stress out on tests. if you are totally freaking out then maybe you should find another trail that doesnt lead to so many tests

[@leannakline5205]

If you don't have a 4.0 can you still get in? my pre req GPA is like a 3.7 right now and hopefully it stays there after this last year of my pre reqs but I was just wondering what your input was on this

[@JL-zy4sv]

You definitely don’t need a 4.0! If you look at schools you’re interested in on the PTCAS directory site you can see the average GPAs and test scores of students admitted to their programs. Most averages range from around 3.5-3.7 for GPA. If you are lacking a bit in the GPA area, I’d made sure you have good letters of recommendation, shadowing experiences, and research (research involvement especially was what made me stand out in the application process and gave me lots to talk about in the interviews!!)

[@leannakline5205]

@@JL-zy4sv thank you so much this was very helpful! And I love your videos it is helpful and reassuring to be able to get an idea of what life is like in PT school. Thanks for the reply!

[@love2shop1996]

Yeah you definitely dont need a 4.0 LOL! I have around a 3.7 overall and got in. You seem like you have great grades though you will be fine! :) Good luck!!

[@joyiris8531]

You guys are amazing!! Well done for all your hard work!

[@Grace-vn3ds]

how do you guys plan on paying for pt school

[@MeganandCiera]

We luckily do not have loans from undergrad because of scholarships so that helps. Just like anyone else we will be using our savings and/or loans/scholarships if we get any.

[@madisonmoore6267]

What if I have a 299 GRE score :( (but I have a 3.9 GPA)

[@MeganandCiera]

That's a great GPA so I really think it's up to you. Maybe look to see if your schools show what previous class GRE scores averaged and make your decision based on that.

[@madisonmoore6267]

@@MeganandCiera Thank you so much for the response. I really needed the encouragement. Unfortunately, I have terrible standardized test anxiety (always have) but I typically do very well in the classroom setting. I probably won't retake the test just because I personally don't want to put myself through that again. I just want to get in to at least one school and I'll be happy :)

[@love2shop1996]

You will get in; I have around 3.7 and gre score was 280 cuz i never been good at those test stuff lol

[@love2shop1996]

Do you guys get summer break for PT school? My cousin is in medical school and doesn’t have break

[@love2shop1996]

Nope no summer break lol

[@Sophie-yk5mr]

Im Canadian and its super interesting to see how different PT school application process is in the US vs. here!

[@sarahcoates9967]

Sophie how is it different? Sorry im just curious

[@Sophie-yk5mr]

@@sarahcoates9967 Well for starters it's a masters program here (M.Sc.PT) rather than D.PT, and you need a 4 year undergrad degree to apply. Applications vary by school but from what I remember from this video they mention "observation hours" which is not required for most of the schools I've looked at, though many will have volunteered at physio clinics and use that as a reference. Some schools you need to take a CASPer test to apply, but none I have looked at require the other test they were talking about (I'm thinking it's probably an American thing, we don't have SAT's or anything here either). Also most programs will be 2 years continuous and I think theirs is 3 years, likely because of the difference in degree type. Hope that eases your curiosity :)

[@2134knees]

What are Observation hours?

[@MeganandCiera]

Kristin Anzelc it’s where you shadow a physical therapist while they work with patients. School require them to make sure you actually know what the job entails.

[@janinerietveld2478]

wow you have to go trough so much stuff to apply and be accepted in to a school in the Netherlands it's literally you apply and maybe you'll get an interview but that's not common, when you go to a treater school then you have to audition

Are you kidding me? You have to go through all this to get into college??!! Holy Smokes!

[@sophiarubens54]

hahah this is actually for grad school application! the college process is almost identical, except in the US people usually take more tests (ACT, SAT, Subject Test, AP) and take them more times each, write more essays specific to the college, and most people apply to between 5 and 15 colleges, so in that sense college application is actually a more cutthroat process, even if the interviews and importance of grades are the same.
