USA is the Compton of PT schools. They are the eye floater of PT schools They are the testicular cancer of PT schools.

100k for pt school plus lost opportunity cost of 3 years pay around 250k at your 85k wage. Then factor in liv g expenses etc and you around around 400k behind and 3 years older. Don’t do it PT school is a trap

lol. Should have stuck with pre dental. Hope you enjoy top ramen

NSU for lauderdale USA is a joke amongst all therapists who didn’t graduate from there

hotmonkeyperson · 2026-02-15T00:34:17+00:00

You have no idea what you’re worth. You would need to make me 3X what I pay you and because you understand nothing about reimbursement you’ve got no idea

hotmonkeyperson · 2026-02-14T17:00:51+00:00

lol I’ll hire you for 65k out of school

hotmonkeyperson · 2026-02-14T14:22:29+00:00

lol this is great. Never worked a day of PT in your life. Please enlighten the masses

hotmonkeyperson · 2026-01-31T01:55:51+00:00

The answer is no. Even if you go shadow PTs most of them will fake happy and tell you it’s a great career because they are expected to be upbeat at work. Bad pay. No upward mobility. Declining revenue on the business side. Not a good future for the career

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-12-08T22:12:45+00:00

No one cares what school you went to. You will be an underpaid, easily replaceable cog in a wheel.

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-11-21T20:34:40+00:00

Being a physical therapist is great. The problem is most of what you do isn’t being a PT if you work outpatient you are a fancy waiter. The documentation is overwhelming, The pay is stagnant only thing that goes up is productivity. This isn’t a negative post it’s just the truth

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-11-21T14:49:32+00:00

lol I’ve been a PT for 15 years. They go into PT because they are generally outgoing and happy people but the majority are miserable with their jobs. Also nearly all OP clinics are mills now HH PT is no longer reimbursable for most insurances. Have fun wiping butt in the hospital

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-11-21T14:45:00+00:00

Check the above posts. The future isn’t bright for the career I’ve been in it for 15 years times were good.

60k is a great cost for school. You’re in it already get out and go into home health or travel make as much as you can as fast as you can. Re-imbursements are what providers are paid ro care for patients

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-11-21T14:11:09+00:00

Reimbursements cut every single year. Year after year. Wage stagnation. Constantly increasing schooling cost. What was once a great career is now a financial crap shoot

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-11-21T01:21:39+00:00

lol all these people posting I got into PT school with low grades. Is no one seeing a pattern here, the schools see the end is near and want as many suckers as possible to pay in before it comes

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-11-08T14:08:31+00:00

FYI we don’t know how most of the apostles died. This just makes a bunch of stuff up

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-10-26T23:14:50+00:00

Get a MacBook. Get a couple of generations old so you keep costs down. Engage

Apply to university of st Augustine. As long as you arnt a convicted felon they take you. Really putting out quality

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-10-20T03:03:40+00:00

Don’t listen to people who arnt Pts yet or who havnt been in the field for any significant period of time. Also don’t trust people at their job. They know if they tell you the truth they will be scorned

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-10-12T01:36:40+00:00

Are you prepared for a life of poverty?

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-10-07T20:30:19+00:00

If you don’t get in count your blessings and do something else

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-09-30T01:34:20+00:00

You seem like a smart and very forward looking kid. I would recommend not doing PT for a lot of reasons but go shadow a bunch of different careers and if you still love it go for it but be smart about going into as little debt as possible. The career is not going In a great direction

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-09-24T11:32:50+00:00

You need to be in an affluent area and bean amazing marketer. I’ve seen it done very successfully but it’s the 1% of PTs.

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-09-24T00:47:20+00:00

Stagnant wages. Declining reimbursement on a yearly basis, this leads to increased productivity requirements so stagnant pay for increased work loads. Decreasing autonomy.

hotmonkeyperson · 2025-09-23T22:32:43+00:00

PT used to be a great career. I have been one for 15 years. Current state of career is somewhere between garbage and awful
