    Most programs have far more applications than seats, and are very choosy. Admitted students average around 3.5 for most programs. If you have a lower GPA but your recent GPA is higher, and your test scores are very high, and you have a great resume otherwise, it may be possible for you to get in. They do look at other things than GPA, of course. Some students get off to a rough start and then improve dramatically, which they will take into account. Many schools will actually publish the data on their admitted classes online (in the aggregate) so that you can see what the averages are for GRE, GPA, and so on. Here is the PTCAS table so that you can see overall data of applicants nationwide: http://www.ptcas.org/uploadedFiles/PTCASorg/About_...

    Possibly you can, but there's no one here that can tell you what schools would be appropriate because we don't know where you live or anything else about you. Find some schools that have a physical therapy program, contact their departments of admission, and find out what the admissions requirements might be.

    "B minus" is not a GPA. If you mean you have between a 2.5 and 3.2, it's highly unlikely you would be accepted into a doctoral program of any type. Sorry.

    PT school is very competitive, and a B minus average won't make the cut.

    3.0 is the cutoff for most legit programs.
