Focus on a major in Kinesiology... don't know what else you'd need.

I was told to major in Biology.

GhostTX

Dunno either...I'd figure Kinesiology would be more important than Biology, but you got me.

Just doing some Googling for ya...

Thanks for your help.I just hope that I get accepted to one of the Physical Therapy schools.

Call your local hospital and ask for the physical therapist there. Ask him/her if you can do an informational interview. You're interested in the field...what do you need to know...blah...blah...blah...

I think when I turn 16 I'm gonna get a job at the local Physical Therapy place.One of my best friends has a job there and shes also about to start applying for colleges.I'm sure she knows what would me best to do but she is currently in Europe and I can't ask her at the moment. :bang:
