Prerequisites For Physical Therapy

Derek Said:

Where can I take exercise physiology, the prerequisite for Physical therapy, near the san francisco bay?

We Answered:

Yes, I think that exercise physiology should be the requirement. I don't know why they keep changing it, particularly in the bay area. Let me know if I can be of further help. You can always call the office or check our site exercise_physiology_in_the_bay_area.com

Good luck!

Jesus Said:

What are the prerequisite for physical therapy school?

We Answered:

It may vary from school to school, but most schools require at least:
1. A year each of general (not basic) bio, chem and physics
2. 1 semester of anatomy and physiology
3. basic statistics
4. 1-3 courses in psych...usually intro to psych, lifespan psych and abnormal psych
5. Trig and/or calc


You should review the specific requirements from the school to which you hope to apply.


It doesn't matter if it was taken at a community college...however, most schools require that you've done your prerequsites within the last five years.

You'll probably need to contact the graduate PT program to see if your business stats will suffice. It will need to have covered research related topics: P-values, SD, kappa coefficient, probability, confidence intervals, etc.

Discuss It!
