Which Career Has The Brighter Upside?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on February 28, 2010
I am a high school junior and I’m confused on what I should go into after high school: go for a Ph.d in psychology or go for physical therapy. Psychology has always been my main interest, but people always warn me of how unsafe of a field it is. Physical therapy is my other option, and I like working with the body and all, but I heard you have to take prerequisite classes like chemistry and such and I don’t like that kind of stuff. Now, I heard physical therapy is a safer field, but the rules are changing a bit and people studying physical therapy are encouraged to go for their DPT (Doctor of physical therapy)..so can anyone help me with any knowledge of either psych careers and physical therapy careers
Career………?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on February 26, 2010
I am trying to figure out what career I want to pursue. I am almost finished w/ my 1st yr of college so I need to figure out what I want to study in the fall. I def want a career w/ animals and Im interested in animal assisted therapy (AAT) or animal rehab. Ive been doing some research and it seems like if I want to be AAT that I need to have a degree in physical therapy, nursing, etc (something like that). Im just not sure if I would like a job as a physical therapist if it doesnt involve animals. Could anyone give me some more info/input?

I have been thinking about a career in nursing or physical therapy, but I’m not entirely certain whether or not I would be well suited for the job. I would prefer to be a teacher, but they just don’t get paid as much as they deserve. Serious answers only please.
Which Career Earns More And Is More Enjoyable? Ultrasound Tech Or Physical Therapist?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on February 22, 2010
I realize the two careers are very different and I have looked at both jobs extensively, including the school needed to get there, but I am at a standstill between the two. I’d love to hear from Ultrasound Techs and Physical Therapists to hear your take. I’ve looked up average salaries for both positions, but I know that it depends on where you work, what your specialty is, and how much experience you have. It seems that Physical Therapy requires more school (for a DPT) and pays about the same as an Ultrasound Tech. Opinions?
