Is my four and a half year bachelor's degree considered an honours degree or a normal degree in UK?

Yes, your four-and-a-half-year Bachelor of Physiotherapy from India is generally considered equivalent to a UK honours degree.
- 3-year Indian bachelor's degrees: Typically match a standard UK bachelor's degree.
- 4+ year Indian bachelor's degrees: Usually align with a UK Bachelor (Honours) degree.
However, final recognition depends on the specific UK university and their credential assessment process. Some universities may have their own evaluation criteria.
