This was really inspiring, I’m starting in the PTA program in two weeks📚This helped a lot!!!
Taajah Talks aw good I’m so glad it helped! Good luck with the start of your program! 🤗
Subscribed! So hard to find PTA youtubers! I just put in my application and will know something after August! I am stressing out and just keeping an eye on my emails
I had to get shots and all that together for the application! Kinda expensive but hopefully I get in
Yay! I am glad you found me! That’s awesome that you put in your application. I wish you the best of luck! 👍
I have a question, I need to retake classes because their old and also to bump my GPA, but the thing is I really don't have any money. I'm sorry, I know this is a lame excuse. I feel really bad myself and feel sad all the time to be broke. I'm 55 years old live alone and live paycheck to paycheck. I mean, I'm really broke. Always negative in my bank because I'm trying to pay bills and at time get eviction notices but I end up paying on my next check but putting my other bills behind. I work in the ER as a tech and work 3-4 12-hour shifts. I go home really beat.
I have a low GPA and it's causing me to not get chosen for any school for PA, DPT, Nursing, or Respiratory. I really want to be a physical therapist and I know that I would be really happy and good at being PT. I've been a tech in the ER for 17 years and I feel burnt out and don't want to be in the ER anymore. Please help me out and advise me on where to look for help. Thank you.
Im so scared to start this program in the fall 😓
Hey Danielle, nice video! So how's the PTA career going for you and how's the job outlook in the future? I plan to apply at my community college for next year's fall semester.
Eugene Barretto Haha it is going really interesting actually! I actually took my board exam... and let’s just say it didn’t go well. I plan on making a video later on that but if you pass the board exam there is really no reason you shouldn’t be able to find a job :) Definitely apply and let me know how it goes! It’s a wonderful career!
My program advisor said I didn’t need math for Pre Req but we also have to take the Hesi Test and 40 hours observation before applying to PTA school.
That’s awesome!! 👍
Where would you go to do your hours?
@@viviana_lanina1024hospital or physical therapy clinic where they are treating patients with physical therapy
Thanks for the info! Really appreciate it!
I’m glad you found it helpful!!
Thank you for the info. What state was your PTA program in?
Virginia! 😊 Thank you so much for the question!
Your dog!! 😍😍 so cute
Xoxo BEE Aw, thanks so much!! He is the best 🐕
Great informational video. Thank you for making it. Out of curiosity could you work while you were in the program?
I did Rover when I was in school! That was perfect for me because I could work around my school schedule. Some of my classmates did that but it totally depends on what you have time for and what you think you can handle! Thanks so much for watching! ☺️
How concern are you about the whole 2022 85% medicare reimbursement cap for pta change?
That is something I’m going to have to look further into and do some more research. I do know the APTA is going to do their best to fight for PT’s and PTA’s. I feel like this career field isn’t going to go away or anything. There is just so much need for it right now. That’s just my opinion though. As I said before, I do need to do more research!
What would be your advice for people looking to get into PTA school concerning the whole 2022 reimbursement change in the profession? As someone who's looking to get in the field, I definitely want to know how that's gonna affect the profession.
He want his degree too and a little camera time and he is so cute 😍 😍 😍
What school did you go to?
Hey! Good question! I went to school in VA! If you want to know which school DM me at dani.stuller. I just don’t want to put that out into the public yet! Thanks!
PTA also does not stand for PT aide :D totally different.
Love the dog! Thank you for the info. Looking for my son. He got his bachelors in Exercise Science. Did and internship. He decided he didn’t want to be physical therapist but possibly a PTA.
That’s amazing!! Good for him!! 🙌
I just begin last Friday
Hey Danielle! What was your GPA when you got accepted into the program?
It was a 3.2 I think! I had A’s and B’s in all my prerequisite classes! Hope that helps!
I want to do pta after high school because I feel like it's better for me but people are stating that pta are a dying field and it's hard to find a job can you respond to this comment please because I don't want to make a mistake picking the wrong career.
I haven’t heard that PTA is a dying field! I’ve never had an issue finding a job. If you want, you can check if there are PTA job openings in your area and kind of determine the need for them! I hope that helps!
Can you explain a little bit more about the prerequisite for math? What exactly is math for the real world?
It’s just a college level math class you can take! :)
is there a lot of math involved in the classes? is it hard math? i am not the best at math but i’m interested in being Physical therapist assistant
No math really at all once you get into the program!
You are cute 🥰
What did your school schedule look like? Like were you at school all day from Monday through Friday? Thanks for the video!
It was Mon-Friday and usually we would start around 8 and either end around 2pm or 4pm ish! I think the first semester we had Fridays off but it’s been so long it’s hard to remember! Thanks so much for watching! ☺️
When your in the program how many classes you take at a time, like for level 1 you had to take 4?

I thought math was harder for me! Physics was not bad at all in the program I was in :) Hope that helps!
