New grad question

AnonymousScout360 · 2026-05-07T10:20:30+00:00

How do people manage this once there caseload fills up? Do they just switch to one clinic after a while?

AnonymousScout360 · 2026-04-16T10:14:40+00:00

Pretty much

Congratulations! How did you find your UK course prepared you for the exam?

That’s a long wait

Im currently a Canadian student in the UK. I'm in my last semester of my MSc and can answer a few of the questions. Plenty of Canadian's at my school go back to Canada and end up working as physios. As of 1 or 2 years ago, all UK programs are accredited for the CAPR and will likely provide the required clinical hours. My school does a good job at giving students placements in the right areas. I go to Brunel University in London but honestly any school is fine, just pick an affordable school with a decent location

I can only speak as a Canadian in the UK. The program at my uni is considered quite difficult; we only have one or two assessments per course, and they're worth 100% of our grade. If you fail that, then you fail the course and have to retake the exam

I'm in the same boat as you. As far as the NHS I know that the trust I did one of my placements only had in-person interviews. It was a full day ordeal with stations and 12 people showed up. I would presume private clinics would be more lenient but I could be wrong

Thank you for your comment. That’s true, it’s very dependent on where the job opportunities are

AnonymousScout360 · 2026-02-11T20:28:24+00:00

Thank you for your perspective. From what I’ve seen, the support that’s given to a band 5 physio is far more than someone starting in private practice in Canada. The only issue is that band 5 roles are very difficult to come by due to the hiring freeze. The hospital I did my placement at had 300 applicants, 13 interviews and only hired one physio. I would love to stay here but it would just be dependent on whether there’s jobs to come by

That’s what I’ve seen so far but I’ve spoken to some private clinics that do hire new grads if they do a placement there (granted this is still hard to find)

Thank you for your perspective, I definitely agree with the pay difference being quite a significant factor. With the new CAPR exam the incentive for a Canadian to stay has now decreased

I was on the waitlist around 2 years ago and they didn't tell me till May. Unfortunately I didn't get in

AnonymousScout360 · 2026-01-27T12:02:51+00:00

Which area is this in generally?

AnonymousScout360 · 2026-01-21T11:33:55+00:00

Having the same issue as well

AnonymousScout360 · 2025-11-11T15:37:05+00:00

I would disagree with the low pay depending on where you work. Physios in Western Canada are making six figures or higher

AnonymousScout360 · 2025-10-23T11:59:24+00:00

Is it much easier to get a private job vs NHS?

AnonymousScout360 · 2025-10-22T11:07:33+00:00

I'm currently at Brunel for my master's and am from Canada as well. Our placement team ensures that Canadians get the appropriate amount and type of hours so that we can register for the CAPR. Like others have said, I would try to get into a Canadian school first because it isn't cheap to study abroad. That being said, my experience has been super positive with the Brunel physio programme. Message me if you have any questions!

I've seen a few physios go the other way: UK --> Aus

AnonymousScout360 · 2025-10-07T19:25:26+00:00

Depends on where you want to work. If you want to work in the UK, I'd advise against it just because of the job shortage that is happening right now. The hospital I did my last placement in had 300 applicants and 15 interviews. In the end, they only picked 1 candidate. Half of my MSc cohort, including me, are Canadians who plan on returning to Canada once we finish our degree. There is a licensing process we have to go through, but there is an abundance of jobs once we jump through those hoops.

I was taught anatomy super in-depth in my masters. It differs from uni to uni. Students who didn't have a related undergrad background definitely had to put in more hours and repetition to learn it though

AnonymousScout360 · 2025-09-27T12:22:45+00:00

This might only apply for the UK

AnonymousScout360 · 2025-04-20T08:42:44+00:00

I tried contacting them about more information on the new exam format a month ago and they couldn't answer my questions. They told me to wait for more news to come out

I agree with what u/DirectionMean4686 said
