Hello. My main goal is Occupational therapy and at first, I planned on choosing the "safe" route to getting into OT school by trying to pursue a degree in exercise science, but after researching what jobs you can get with an exercise science degree, I found it is limited to the realm of personal trainors which is not my dream. So I considered doing nursing and then apply to OT school later on. The reason why I am worried about getting a job after bachelors that can get a decent income is that I will need money to pay off debt and just plain live whether I get into graduate school right away or not. Can anyone in OT school tell me if this is bad idea or some suggestions for me as far as jobs go for exercise science? I would think nursing wouldn't hurt your chances because you are still getting experience in the healthcare field, but I am not positive. I need a lot of help!
