Lizabeth Rasmussen informed me by email that she had passed the October NPTE. Here’s her TEP’s success story: “Over the last 3 years I have dedicated my life to PT school and my future career of becoming a physical therapist as I graduated in May of 2012. As I began to prepare to take my boards exam in July, I became overwhelmed with the amount of information that I felt I needed to learn before the exam.
I bought the O’Sullivan Study book and read it cover to cover and felt like I learned nothing by the time my board exam arrived. I had no confidence in myself to pass the exam and knew the day I took it that I would probably be taking it again. As I hypothesized, I was unsuccessful. I have always struggled with confidence, but after my first attempt at the NPTE my confidence fell even more.
My parents and I found the TEP on the APTA website and decided it was worth a shot! As I went through the program I learned so much about myself as a participant, a future physical therapist and a person. My confidence grew and I knew that I would pass the NTPE in October with no problems, and I was right! I couldn’t have done it without the TEP and am now a licensed physical therapist in the state of Iowa. Thank you TEP for all your help, I wouldn’t be were I am today without the help of this great tool! Thanks again!”
