Hi :) I was thinking of getting into O.T when i hit my uni years... Though I think I need a bigger picture of what it is, I understand that it's a pretty wide field. Also, do you think an INTP will have much job satisfaction in O.T or not?

Whether you're an O.T or not, do share your thoughts.
Thanks! :blush:

If you're a balanced INTP maybe. You'll be dealing with more than the physical structures of a human body. There are a lot of emotional and psychosocial issues to deal with. And sometimes even sexuality. It's definitely not as cut and dried as in Physical Therapy.

If you can be empathetic, and deal with more than kinesiology, and structural problems. Go for it.
