need guidance

[sheru1]

I have received my fccpt report and it says not equivalent to US physical therapy. i applied through south dakota. what should i do in order to get license.

[prvashi]

you may b lacking general credits, so finish that first. and if professional also lacking, u need to finish it. then u can apply for evaluation again.

thanks prvashi. yes i do lack in general credits. is it same with all states or there are some states who have liberal policies?

also, i would like to know that, it was comment on my report that my education is "substantially" not equivalent to US first professional degree. so my question is - by completing this general credits will i be eligible for NPTE

[prvashi]

yes. u can do it. and no state is liberal. general credits lacking are almost same for all foreign trained. so u satisfy their requirement, they let u sit in exam. as simple is that.
