Tips for U.S NPTE License



What is NPTE - It is National Physical Therapy exam 

'Why it is conducted every year ' 
'To protect the public interest in having only those people who have the required knowledge of physical therapy are licensed to practise physical therapy under the regulations of The Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy(FSBPT).

So how do we crack this test..
1.You can crack the test if you have studied the development pattern of the test.
All the question revolve around from the review guide tables in the questions itself, just relax and go throrough with the smallest table in the review guide.
2.Some question you may come across from JOINT MOBILIZATION,GAIT CYCLE,ORTHOTICS,PROSTHETICS,SPINAL CORD INJURIES,DIFFERENCES BETWEEN ARTERIAL AND VENOUS ULCERS , to simple wound dressing.
3.Cover Orthodontics as much as you can as most of the questions are asked from it.
4.I suggest you to refer KISNER for cruciate ligament injuries and joint mobilization.
5.For X Ray test figures refer Magee and a table in shoulder joint stating the differences between
Atraumatic instability Adhesive capsulitis.
6. The best advice anyone can ever give you is to attend as much question as you can.
7.Please do not bother on question you are not prepared for and find tough ' they are actually very time consuming.
8. If you have some colleagues a healthy discussion could be the best way to revise and learn simultaneously.
9.Don't worry if you have gone through well feel confident,as most of the questions are very straight.
I wish this is of great help to you these tips are practiced by me and my seniors and have been passed down. Now it is on to you learn and adapt them also spread the word around as this might help the others who are in real need for help.

All the best.
