1. The career that interests me the most is physical therapy because it requires a comprehensive understanding of the human body and the complex relationship between different systems and how they interact with each other, in order to develop strategies to help patients regain or improve their functional mobility and strength.
2. The future prospects are projected to be excellent as the field of healthcare and healthcare technology continues to rapidly expand in knowledge and capability, creating an ever-growing demand for qualified therapists and medical practitioners.
3. I plan to earn a bachelor's degree in exercise science, sports medicine, or a related field, followed by a master's degree in physical therapy. After gaining some clinical experience, I would like to specialize in sports physical therapy and continue with additional certifications or classes to further advance my career.
4. Strong communication and interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to work independently and collaboratively, are essential for success. Displaying a willingness to learn new techniques and staying updated on current medical practice will go a long way towards advancing in the field of physical therapy.
