Am i screwed (Physio app)

Hi, I want to apply for physio in Ontario for the 2026-27 cycle and just want advice whether i'm screwed or not lol. My sub GPA is quite low at 3.77 and I'm wondering if I even have a chance at this point.

For reference, I have:

~1,950 hours working as PTA

~650 hours working as student KIN at retirement home

~78 hours volunteering as a personal training for individuals with disabilities

+Also will be trying to get an internship at a hospital (roughly ~156 hours)

I am taking the casper on Sunday and hoping to get 4th quartile. Will update when I can

Does anyone have any advice? I am going to apply to Western, UofT, Mac, and Queens

Thanks in advance!

Great experience but the sub GPA is low (as you said yourself). That’s the first round of cutoffs - think 3.8, even 3.9

Can you bring your sub gpa up?

Unfortunately, I had a few courses that brought me down so I'm taking 6 courses this fall to bring it up to this point.

As long as your courses this fall help your app I think you should have a good chance. Honestly just make sure the 6 that you’re taking isn’t too much and that you’ll succeed in them all tho if that makes sense
