Couldn't present my NCBTMB test today!!,Physical therapy adv

[hummerhead2002]

Well hello everyone, just wanted to say that today i couldn't present my test because my id's didn't match with my registration, i don't know but i thing that they are a little exagerated about that, the problem was that in my registration my names appears like Cesar Camacho, and in my id appears as Cesar Camacho Zamudio (plus i showed like 7 picture id's) so the problem was that and beacause of that i lost all the time and effort that i put to make this test also the money so take my mistake as an example for somebody, please check your names and don't forget your mother as i did jaja, anyway im gonna reapply tomorrow to take the test, the only thing that bothers me is the time that it takes and i missed just because of that. (the other bad thing is that i wasn't he only one with that problem, other girl had to go home as i did just beacuse of that problem)

The second thing is that i would like somebody to give me some advice because im thinking in becoming a physical therapist, and for that i really dont know how to start so if anybody can help me i'll appreciate it,

another cuestion, i heard that for a massage therapist it takes less time to become a physical therapist is this true?

Thanks in advance!!!

Cesar

PT & PTA

The requirements for PT education are going up; they will be shortly like becoming a doctor. My husband, who is also a MT, is a sophmore in his PTA course. He found knowing the massage therapy techniques helpful. It is also benefitial for his "bedside" manner.

well thank you for the information about PT dodab you anwered another of my cuestions, i was reading yesterday about PTA's and i was wondering about if i had to become a PTA before a PT, now i see that i could do that, one bad thing for this is that i studied in a massage therapy school.

thanks a lot for the advice and i'll see about PT because i really like MT and i think that PT is gonna be a good way to help people and as a MT i already have some knowledge about it and it is also in the field of what i want to study.

thank's a lot and I'm not so new in the forum its just that i havent post a lot but believe me i spend a lot of time reading and i trully say that i have learn a lot from here, thanks a lot guys and i'll try to post more often.

Have a good day everybody!!!!
