Ans: After completing your B.Sc in Physiotherapy, pursuing a Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) in the USA is highly recommended. Top universities include the University of Southern California and the University of Pittsburgh; ensure you meet their GPA requirements, typically around 3.0 or higher, and check specific prerequisites for international students. The job prospects in the USA for DPT graduates are excellent.
