PTJunkie Posted May 28, 2017 Report Share Posted May 28, 2017 Sorry this is a bit off topic for this time of year -- congratulations to everyone accepted into OT/PT grad school!!! I am trying to plan my prerequisites to apply for U of T PT (among many others) as a back up for UBC PT. They list 5 prerequisites and state, "Approved courses are listed for three of the five prerequisite areas: human physiology, human anatomy and statistics/research methods. We do not list life/physical science courses or social science and/or humanities and/or languages courses because these categories are very broad and encompass hundreds (if not thousands) of possible choices for each school listed." So, I took KIN 373 which covers the statistics/research portion of the prereqs. My question: is 0.5 credits all that is needed (I noticed it said stats OR research methods)? For the life/physical science requirement: does anyone know if I would be able to use my kinesiology courses? i.e., UBC KIN 275 exercise physiology For the social science/humanities/languages, if I did something like Health Policy & Society (a Kinesiology course - specifically UBC KIN 261) would this cover the prereq? Or does it have to be from a department of the social science/humanities/languages? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were very helpful with my pre-req's so that there wasn't any confusion! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rehab17 Posted May 29, 2017 Report Share Posted May 29, 2017 Hey! I've looked this up when I was applying and you can find all the information for prerequisites here: http://www.physicaltherapy.utoronto.ca/admissions/how-to-apply/prerequisite-verification/ Just click for your university and they will let you know what courses specifically from your university cover the prereq.
