Official Physiotherapy Student Society Thread

Congrats! Thats fab!

Speaking of dissertations, I better go start downloading some journals!

What you doing it on?

Just to make you really jealous- I officially finish in 7 weeks!!! Just wish I had a job to go to!

Well done everyone that got thier places on Physio

Blimey - that's an interestign angle, I used lots of Bandura when I was doing teacher training!

Internal and external loci of control

*removes geek specs*

oh shush you! lol

Our official title was "Does a 6-week community confidence group improve self-efficacy in patients following stroke. A retrospective study". Although I think its going to change slight - but effectively we're analysing if a community group improves self-efficacy in stroke patients. Very interesting - lots of bandura! lol

Have you been looking at Jobs? Or are you waiting till you're officially done?

God that sounds complicated!

Well I haven't started yet as most of the jobs that come up say you need to be HPC registered before applying (we don't get that till early Nov) so it's a bit pointless now....but I am going to give my CV into the place I'm on placement now as they're going to be looking for bank staff in a few months so fingers crossed!

Oh the fun!

good luck Sam!

Just taken my acceptance of a place form into George's and given it to the admin person so it's all official now

Hello,
I am thinking of studying Physio in uni. I have just got back my AS results AAA: BIOLOGY, MATHS, ENGLISH.I just want to ask a few questions. I was wondering if you need to have a very big passion in sports? As I dont lol quite the opposite. But I am interested in strokes, cystic fibrosis the health and disease factors? Does the course content contain this? I know this is also lol a very shrewed question but.. I was also wondering how good the salary is for physiotherapists? Anyone who can give me an insight some main back ground knowledge. thankyou very much for any help (btw i am using my friend Malaz ID for anyone confused )

I say a band 5 job advertised today. One of the essential requirements on the person spec was that you had a First Class classification!!!!! *runs away to start revising!*

Ouch(!) Only problem is, some of the unis don't mark placements...so surely a first class degree is going to mean different levels of competence depending on where you did it?

is it sad that I've already been downloading job descriptions and personal specs so I can start writing my personal spec?! lol

god you're keen! I haven't even thought about doing that yet.....any tips?!! Must start that task soon though....I HATE personal statements!!

Just finished another placement, stroke rehab- it was fab!....one more to go

yes - download all band 5 posts even if they're not rotational! I just thought I'd do it because if they wnated specific things I could try doing them in my remaining placements..........I saw one the other day that wanted someone who had audit experience.................so guess what I' going to be trying to get in on when I'm on placement next?! lol

I know, some of them are so demanding, especially when it comes to having done placements in specific areas- don't they know we can't choose what placements we get?!
