Hi! I’m currently a high school junior looking into a career in physical therapy. I want to apply to Marquette, St. Louis, Northeastern, Boston University, and Ithaca. I have a 3.9 UW GPA and a 4.2W GPA. I have taken AP World History and am currently taking AP Calculus AB, AP Chemistry, and AP Psychology. Next year I will take AP Bio, AP Physics, AP Gov, and AP Statistics. I have an ACT score of 34 (I’m wondering if I should retake it) and also volunteer at a physical therapy clinic and intern at a chiropractic clinic every week.
For my ECs, I run varsity cross country, am president of a club as well as co-president and co-founder of another club. I have received several awards in cross country. Additionally, I tutor in my school library and provide child care for preschoolers on a weekly basis.
I know that physical therapy program are becoming more and more selective, so any advice on how to maximize my chances of getting in is appreciated.
