Which State To Choose To Apply in the USA?
Hi everybody,
I need some help and recommendations on choosing the state to apply to get a license. Here is my situation;
I have Bachelor's degree from Turkey and have been practicing in pediatric rehabilitation for a year. The first question is it possible to apply with a bachelors degree or i need MS degree at least to apply? As far as i know to be PT in US at least MS degree needed.
I have a valid social security number since i have worked in US as a tour guide via work and travel program. I have valid Illinois drivers license and id card. I would choose to New Jersey, Illınois, Florida, Indiana and New York maybe. I would like to know about Nevada and California too but i never been those states and have no idea. Which one would be easier to get licensed?
Any suggestion will help me a lot. Thank you all.

Yes, perhaps someone could comment on which states have which exam passing standards.
When I worked last in USA for instance, Arkansas pass mark was lower than Texas. Perhaps now they have all
accepted one standard mark?
I liscensed in Arkansas as they didn't ask me for a valid work permit, whereas Hawaii did, and I believe California did.
I don't have my work permit yet, and just wanted the liscense to be current so I could do volunteer work anyway,
so I am not applying for the work permit at this time.

I have a 4 year Bachelor's from Canada, that was all I needed. They look at what courses you took I believe, but I went thru the process years ago, we need someone to comment on current standards.
