Linda’s Answer

A kinesiology degree is a great option. Look at physical therapy program curriculums that you are interested in applying to. Knowing what a PT program expects for pre-requisites will help you choose a degree and your electives. A career as a PT can be quite rewarding. Enjoy

During your studies, you’ll have to take many science courses, which will give you a good understanding. A lot of PT minded students major in kinesiology because it gives a good understanding of how the body moves. I hope this helps.
