people's chill out! 80grand is heapsssss (or atleast i think it is haha)

anyways,
physio looks so interesting to study, it's very biological based (as you'd expect) there are interesting places to work afterwards, patient interraction, there's some variety in what you can do (even move into animal physio!) and so on. i can definitely see why it's appealing, the new physio course at melbourne sounds incredible i was tempted.. haha

yeh pay isn't bad, but i mean nurses get the same if not more in a hospital (especially because it depends on the amount of shifts)

I am interested in the physiology side, it does seem quite interesting.

And it would be amazing going around the world on the tennis tour or something like that as a physio, but as you say not many people get that opportunity

Okay here is another question then:

lowest physio enter is 95.4, but chiropractic is 80.4, so why not chiropractic?

I wouldn't say people regard physios and better than chiro's, and the pay is just as good, so why 15 more?
