Hey

I'm just finishing my 2 yr Masters in PT.

Some general tips:
- know your anatomy!
- practice all the clinical tests and treatments with your classmates. ALOT! I didn't do as much as I should have.
- Most of the stuff I learned didn't make sense until I was on placement, that's where you will learn how it all fits together. The Physiotherapy Pocket Book is the best little book ever for placements.
- Physiotherapy can be broken down to 2 main points if its stiff = stretch it/mobilise it, if its weak = strengthen it (the hard part is figuring which bits are doing what)
- Observe people everywhere and see how they move - you become a bit of a people watcher when you start but its the best way to spot movement differences.

Good luck with your course! you'll be fine
