Which is better career wise?

[myDeliverance]

I agree with Weatherfan2. What do you mean by better? Follow your passion! If you could do something for free which one would it be. Do you want to make money or enjoy your work? How did you come up with these 2 careers and why?

The answer is simple. Which would you enjoy doing more? People who do what they love tend to perform better and those who are good at what they do advance faster and have more opportunities for growth.

I have a degree in Business Admin too. I'm going back for a second bachelor's in accounting.

Physical therapy can be a physically demanding career and business would be cubicle and sedentary.
It depends on what you like to do; have you taken a career inventory test? Sometimes the tests aren't that great but you may find out that either PT or business is on your results.
For Business Admin., accounting is a good specific field within business admin. to go to. Business Admin. in general is very broad so you'll need to narrow it down (marketing, finance, accounting, management, etc.)
You don't need to get a graduate degree to be successful in the field but you'll need to find your niche within business admin.

Depends on where you live. My daughter graduated from PT school 2 years ago, all excited and raring to go, but has had only 2 minimal part time assignments. She supplements her income by being a teachers aide fo handicapped children in 2nd grade school.
The field is over saturated with PT's.
