I am looking into physical therapy school since being laid off as a radiographer. I'm 24 and since that's hopefully not too old to go back to school for something better and am wondering if anyone here can offer advice

-I have an associates in Radiography with a 3.25 GPA as of now. Is this GPA to low? I Think I'll be able to increase it but I'm not sure how high of a GPA I should have.

-Is there a specific bachelors degree I should work towards to make myself a better candidate come the time to get into PT school? I really want to be able to get in when I get my bachelors.

-Any specific advise about how to be a good candidate? I know volunteer time and GRE scores are important, but is there anything else that can help me?

Thanks in advance to anyone who can provide some insight.
