  1. The only course I think would be helpful for you is health.  


  2. Well, colleges always look for all around good grades.  But I would imagine that doing really well in classes like wellness would help.  I also have a friend who wants to become one, and for some reason she said that she is taking Latin to help her become one (not that I know if theres a connection between the two)

  3. As pineapple said, your high school level courses will not count specifically towards a physical therapy major.  However, what you should focus on this time is general college admission requirements...usually 4 years of English, 3 of science, 3 of math and your other HS grad requirements.  

    Once in college, you'll need to start taking college level bio, chem, and physics...to name a few.  

  4. I don't think any of those classes will count towards your physical therapist degree. Colleges will be looking for all around good grades. Perhaps you could find a way to volunteer at a physical therapy hospital to show you are really serious. Just keep up the classics: math, science (esp. biology), English, foreign language and maybe an art or music.
