    Physiotherapy job prospects?

    To do physio or settle for exercise phys

    Hey mate, Just to reassure you, it will not matter which uni you go to. As long as you complete your physio degree and get your registration as a physiotherapist, you are just as employable as someone who would've graduated from USYD. All universities follow a guideline which complies with the...

    Hey So if you want to do Masters of physiotherapy, you will need to complete you undergraduate studies first. However, if you would like to transfer before finishing your undergraduate studies, you will need to transfer to a Bachelor of physiotherapy or equivalent degree. Hope that helps.

    And what makes you say that? I can assure with complete certainty that the university you go to does NOT matter in the medical field. The same goes for whether you do medicine at UNSW or any other uni.

    Hey I recently graduated from podiatry, and if I can give you one tip before you undertake podiatry.. be aware that you will be clipping a LOT of nails. It is very repetitive.

    is podiatry hard

    I studied podiatry, and I can tell you now that it's definitely not easy. So you will need to put in a lot of hours. Also now that I'm working, I found that it's very repetitive... I'm not exaggerating but 90% of the time you are clipping nails.. So I don't really know how much longer I can keep...

    Physiotherapy job prospects?

    As long as you graduate from a physiotherapy degree, it won't matter at all which university you went to. If you perform well at uni and your grades are good, that would probably get you a better chance than the uni that you went to.
