Physiotherapy Status In India

[geste123]

This Is To Challenge Anyone Who Thinks Dat Physio Curriculum In India Is On Par With Anyother Curriculum In The World...can You Compare Indian Standard With American 'doctor Of Physical Therapy Course'? In What Do They Differ - In Quality Or In Terms Of Autonomy In Practice? I Would Say That It Is In Both Terms, They Differ.. My Intention Is Not To Put Down Indian Standard But To Make Others To Realise Where We Lack And Where We Lag Behind. Please Dont Have The Attitude To Deny The Inadequecies.
In India, Only When We Have The Separate Council We Will Have The Legal Possibilities Of Improving The Standards Of The Profession.

Dear augustine, it would help you a great deal if you think before you speak. I really dont know from which institution you have passed your physical therapy degree, but let me tell you, the curriculum, the course duration, even the number of students to be admitted is laid down by IAP & is to be uniform through out India. If there are private colleges who jump it, In such a case it is the duty of the students to let the authorities know. I know one junior physio who was instrumental in closing down an institution. In the first place, a student who has done well in her/his CET would have got credits good enough to get admitted to a good college. Let me make it plain & simple for you. If a student desires to do masters in any American Univ & applies, he would get the admission depending on his credits. If one gets admission into a university at the lower end of the hierarchy, one cant blame the university after passing out. If you have good credits, you will be at the best school.
While reading through the threads, I have seen a lot of Indian physios cribbing. There is'nt substance in it.
