In physiotherapy course how many semesters and what is timeline of exam of each semester?

Hi there,

A Bachelor of Physiotherapy (BPT) course in India is basically a 4 years program that is divided into 8 semesters of six months each, followed by a 6-month compulsory internship.

Generally, the exams occur at the conclusion of every semester. These exams are composed of theory and practical-based question papers.

The core of the first two semesters is made up of basic subjects like Anatomy, Physiology, Biomechanics, and Exercise Therapy. The 3rd and 4th semesters are the periods when technical and clinical subjects are introduced, besides regular studies. Among others, Electrotherapy, Kinesiology, and Pathology are the topics, along with both mid-semester assessments and end-of-semester exams. The 5th and 6th semesters are patient-centered periods of advanced clinical, e.g., Orthopedics, Neurology, and Pediatrics, in which the focus is on practical exams and viva. Rehabilitation, Community Physiotherapy, and specialty training are the main topics of the 7th and 8th semesters , that are also assessed by theory and practical exams. After completing the eight semesters, students are asked to undergo a 6-month hospital internship or rehabilitation centers, evaluated, and a degree completion clearance is needed.

The specific timetable and examination format may vary slightly between different colleges and universities.

Hope it helps!!!
