Want to know more info and working condition of a physical therapist.

I did some research, find out that a physical therapist must have a bachelors/baccalaureate degree to get into physical therapy program. So any recommandation? experience to share...

Need at least a kinesiology degree, if not biology, then apply to a PT program.

UC-San Francisco and Univ. of San Francisco (i think) has a combined, 15-month comprehensive program to get the degree.

They warn you that you won't be able to do any kind of part time job while in this program.

Then, there's actual working with people in PT, or you could go into management (supervisorial) position with a master's degree in PT (i think).

My info is a few years old, when I was still looking into this.
