<p>How bad is your math disabiity? </p>

<p>OT is graduate level program that includes 1 semester of statistics among its admission requirements. (You need to pass stats with a C or better to be considered for admission.)</p>

<p>Do you think you may be able to do that?</p>

<p>OT licensing is also highly regulated by state agencies and all states have on-going continuing educational requirements to get and keep your license.</p>

<p>Are you a high school graduate? </p>

<p>If you have graduated from high school, consider contacting your local community colleges and enrolling in a 2 year transfer program that will prepare you to transfer to a 4 years college where you could complete your degree and will be eligible to apply to OT school.</p>

<p>A number of CCs offer occupational therapy assistant programs where you could earn credits that will transfer to a 4 year college and also give you hands on skills so you can find job to help pay for your undergrad and grad programs</p>

<p>It’s not that bad but if I don’t study it’s really bad I just need a refresher ,what are ccs?</p>

<p>CC=community college.</p>

<p>When you enroll at the community college, they will give you placement exams to measure your level of competency in math, reading and writing skills. Based upon those scores, the school will recommend class placements for you.</p>

<p>Community colleges also offer free tutoring to help you pass your classes. Most tutoring centers at CCs are staffed with teachers who have experience working with students who have a variety of learning issues.</p>

<p>Yea I know I have to ace thru them to get to stats, the placement test I mean</p>
