Hi sorry if I'm posting this in the wrong area but I thought it was too specific to post in the education area. I'm in year 12 and considering studying podiatry next year at the University of Newcastle Ourimbah campus. I have a few questions regarding the university course as well as the profession in general.

1. How hard will the podiatry course be for someone who hasn't studied any sciences in year 12 and is somewhat weak at maths (general maths)?
2.What are the job prospects like for this profession in Australia? Is it difficult to gain employment upon graduation?
3. I mean no disrespect to the profession but I've heard it being called a "glorified nail cutter." What are your thoughts on this? Is a lot of nail cutting actually involved?
4. The area that interests me the most about the profession is the complex anatomy of the foot and bio mechanics. How much of this knowledge is actually applied on the job?
5. How long do most people work for before starting a private practice? I've always been interested in running my own business and it is something I would pursue if I decided to become a podiatrist.
Thanks for your help and if any mods feel this is the wrong area to post feel free to move it.
