Actual news:
- Workouts continue, basically on schedule. Today is a rest day, and I'm very happy for it. I'm sore from yesterday, and I'm not totally sure why. I upped my weights all around yesterday in the gym, and I was at the dojo for quite a while - stayed late after class for some extra work and I guess that's it. I'm also freaking starving today, and while I've been trying to kind of carefully tame that beast, I'm getting on toward the f-it - look out! point. Which I'll have to address soon, because I have to bake a cake (for my mother's birthday) tonight and I don't really want to want to dive into the batter (any more than usual, that is).
- Have done some more PT school research, and it does seem as if the education stuff has all been pretty much standardized. There actually is no specialization at the grad school level; however, afterwards, what I would do is to aim myself towards the sports physical therapy section of the American Physical Therapy Association, which seems to set the standards for practise in that area. The grad schools themselves, I'm finding, vary little in the content; the main differences that I'm seeing is in the arrangement of the courses and clinical rotations, and in the number of total credits, and the difference really aren't that pronounced. There are also, of course, difference in price, and the biggest difference I'm seeing is in in-state vs. out of state tuition.
- It also seems the undergrad requirements have been pretty much standardized, which means the physics thing is going to be an issue at each school. Meaning, I guess, that I'll have to call those I want to apply to individually and see what they would require that I do. But first, to narrow down that particular list...
- And sorry for the bullets; blogger is pissing me off today, blending my paragraphs together.
Oooh, love the kittehs!!
ReplyDeleteIt seems that you are going to have to bite the bullet on the physiology thing. Since you are not planning to enroll in the official program this fall, it probably makes sense to go ahead and get that out of the way, right? (Er... yuck.)
Are you considering moving out of state? Cool! I am so jealous. I love school and would much rather be a permanent student.
