📚 What Should I REALLY Study Before PTA Program Starts? – Summer Prep Advice Wanted!

Hey everyone! I’m officially starting PTA school this fall (super excited 😅), and I’ve got a bit of downtime over the summer. I want to make the most of it by brushing up on the right material before things get crazy.

For those of you already in the program—or recent grads—what topics or skills do you wish you had reviewed beforehand? Anatomy? Pathophys? Clinical reasoning? Time management? Honestly, anything that gave you a head start or helped you survive those first brutal weeks.

Also, is there anything you did not expect to be as challenging as it was?

Bonus: Any underrated resources (YouTube channels, apps, books) you swear by?

Thanks in advance! Just trying to start strong and not drown on Day 1.
