TEP helped me build a game plan to prepare for my NPTAE. I felt I was ahead of many of my classmates in my program when preparing for my board exam. I passed my boards on the first try! Thanks TEP!
~ Garrett Kidd
I took the NPTE in April 2017 and was unsuccessful after studying for 12 weeks on my own without any guidance. I was feeling very lost when I got my initial results and didn’t know what to do. I had given it my all on my first attempt and despite my best effort, I saw the big red FAILED. I found TEP and they totally changed my perspective of the exam itself as well as the study process. After 8 weeks with TEP I successfully cleared the NPTE in July 2017 on my very next attempt! My score improved by over 70 points. My membership with TEP was worth every penny.
~ Amanda Serafini
TEP provided me with test taking tools that I had never thought to use. Taking the NPTE for the second time was stressful in the beginning with so many questions of how to prepare when you thought you did enough the first time around. But TEP provided me with a laid out exam strategy that was easy to follow and worked! They not only focused on how to pass the exam with my knowledge of the material but how to treat the exam emotionally as well. This exam is just a game and you have to know that you can win it. TEP gave me the confidence to control my emotions when taking the Exam.
When I sat for my NPTE in January, I was in it to win it, I was focused and then a hour and a half in the computers went out. Now my old self would have freaked out for that 30 minutes of staring at a black screen and lost focus, thinking of all the negative outcomes, but my TEP self was able to sit there and react calmly and relax knowing confidently that this was not going to stop me from Passing this Exam and winning the game. I was able to walk out of the Exam feeling good about myself and at ease that I had passed. I would highly recommend TEP for anyone that is looking for some needed confidence and direction with their study habits, they provide a community that is supportive and knowledgeable!
~ Megan Hibbard
TEP was a huge help in preparing me to take the NPTE with their step-by-step process and strategies, taking some of the stress off of what felt like an overwhelming hurdle, highly recommended.
~ Laura
I was able to comfortably pass the NPTE on my first attempt. The TEP exam process was vital to my success as test taking skills are just as important as the knowledge of the physical therapy entry-level candidate. The mindset of treating each question like a patient was a great way to empower me during the exam. As I moved on to the next question, I would simply think of a receptionist announcing “your next patient is here”. I saw 250 patients that day!
~ Cathy Lavallee
I would like to share my experience with you about the TEP. I am glad to inform that with the help of the strategies used in the TEP program, I was able to achieve my goal of passing the NPTE. During last few months, I had been through a lot of changes in my life, which did not allow me to focus on my studies. With the help of TEP, I was able to sidetrack all the problems of life. I faced my own fears, developed ideas to deal with them and positively affirmed myself that I can do it. This positive attitude helped me through out the program and also to pass the NPTE. Because this program made me so positive, I did not feel any anxiety before, during or after the exam. Also, before the results I was confident that I have passed the exam.
~ Shweta Ramteke
It has now been several years since I passed the NPTE. I have been practicing as an outpatient physical therapist in New York ever since. The TEP course was wonderful, and helped me prepare during a very stressful time. The webinars, study plans, and test taking strategies paid off on test day. The course was well worth the price, and enabled me to pass the test and pursue my career. Miye was an excellent instructor, but also a great motivator when it came to mental preparation. In addition to learning facts and addressing hypothetical scenarios, confidence is a huge part to taking on a test like the NPTE, and TEP helped prepare me. I would recommend the TEP program to ANYONE who is taking the NPTE. It is a great add-on to typical textbook studying, and is a low-cost high-reward benefit.
~ Lindsey K.
I wanted to let everyone know at TEP that I passed my NPTE and succeeded my goal of 80% on the exam! I am so incredibly thankful to this program and all the help and guidance I received along the way. I don’t think I could have passed without you and this course. Thank you so much!
~ Noelle Rochon
Thank you so so so so much for all your help and support couldn’t have done it without you!! The information, live webinars, forums and assignments were all helpful. Follow TEP’s exam process and you’ll receiving a passing score just like me!
~Kimberly Watkins
Thank you to TEP for helping me to study smarter the second time around it made a world of difference! I will recommend this class to my school.
~ Jackie Therrien
I wanted to announce I have PASSED my boards. I wanted to thank everyone so much at TEP. This program provided me with the structure & tools I needed to be successful. This program was truly a godsend. I would recommend this program to everyone. Thank you TEP!!!
~ Michelle Stein
Thank you everyone at TEP (Miye, Rafael, Kitty, Karen, Jason, sorry if I left anyone else out)! The exam process absolutely worked along with the efficient studying you get from making detailed focus topics. Before TEP I was really lost with my studying but the program gave me a lot of confidence to go out and accomplish my goal!
Good luck to everyone who is still on the journey and keep fighting. Your moment will come soon!
~ Daniel Klein
Just found out that I passed the NPTE! I wanted to say thanks to everyone at TEP (The TEP team and students) for all the help. The TEP approach to passing NPTE helped so much in building my confidence and gave me the tools I needed to successfully pass this test. Thanks for everything!
~ Matthew Murphy
During my journey with TEP I was able to overcome my fear and lack of confidence that had deeply seated in after facing a failure in my first attempt.
On my first attempt with the NPTE, I studied academically like most of us do without realizing that this exam indeed is clinically based and is well beyond our textbooks. And as it would be, I failed to clear the exam on my first attempt. It was quite disheartening as I had never failed in any of my exams throughout my academics. I was then told about TEP by a friend who had enrolled for the same and cleared her exam with a good score.
During my journey with TEP I was able to overcome my fear and lack of confidence that had deeply seated in after facing a failure in my first attempt. The exam process, time management, and the exam taking strategies definitely changed my way of looking at the exam. It also helped me build a strong foundation for the NPTE.
The online forum, live webinars, and daily discussions helped me with my studies. This also worked as a support system to sail me through my journey. After 3 months of proper planning, study schedules, and the right preparation I succeeded in my 2nd attempt. It wouldn’t have been possible without TEP’s guidance and support. I’m very thankful to the entire team.
Last but not the least, stay focused, be confident, don’t procrastinate, and follow the tips and tricks provided by TEP and success shall be yours! I surely recommend people for to join TEP who would be preparing for the NPTE.
~ Rakhi Shivani
TEP does not guide you passively through any one book but encourages a very active new approach to learning using visuals, focus topics and brain dumps to address personalized weak areas you may have.
I am extremely glad to share with you that I passed April NPTE in flying colors. I can certainly attribute my success to the TEP course and instructions. Your valuable suggestions really helped me fill up the gaps in my critical reasoning and understanding skills. Strategically, I was able to make detailed notes and other visuals and brain dumps to further credit my score.
After my previous unsuccessful attempt, I was clueless and overwhelmed about how to proceed from there and unsure where to look for help. And then I came across the TEP recommended by one of my friends. This program is definitely an excellent way to ready yourself for the big day provided you are willing to put the efforts in. The program is structured, yet flexible to prepare you mentally, physically and emotionally for the exam. TEP does not guide you passively through any one book but encourages a very active new approach to learning using visuals, focus topics and brain dumps to address personalized weak areas you may have. I am extremely thankful to TEP for its incredible support and assistance. Overall, I am glad I signed up and I am now searching for a job as PT.
~ Shilpa Sankeesa
TEP’s program taught me how to take the exam, how to read a question, how to answer, how to focus on my weaknesses, and how to study.
My TEP program has ended and I just want to take the time to thank you and your team for coming up with such a great program. The on demand videos were so helpful. The exam process itself is amazing and works really well if you apply it correctly. Karen was great at the live webinars. I learnt so much in these 3 months and my score has increased by 10-15% in practice tests. The clinical discussions and all the other forum posts were extremely helpful and Kitty always did a great job at replying and posting answers.
I am really glad I chose this program. I shall apply whatever I’ve learned through TEP on the actual exam and PASS the NPTE with flying colors. I got a scaled score of 650/800.
I have no words to express my gratitude to you and your team. It was because of the TEP program and everything I learned in it, that I could pass this exam at my first attempt. TEP’s program taught me how to take the exam, how to read a question, how to answer, how to focus on my weaknesses, and how to study. My confidence and my positive attitude grew because of the 3 months in the program. I owe my success to you and your team. I’ve already recommended so many people to join your course!
Thank you for being ever so helpful and approachable. I wish you and your team the very best of luck.
~ Taruna Aswani
Thanks to TEP team for all your help. I am done with PTA. These discussions and forums are so helpful in clearing all doubts. Makes the picture so clear. Thanks to Miye and Karen and other TEP members while on my PTA journey. All the material in the program and live Webinars were so helpful. I would recommend everyone preparing to join TEP. Positivity is the main keyword gained from TEP which is very important.
~ Chandni Baxi
For all of you out there preparing the NPTE take this course and follow every tip they tell you! It really works!
I passed the NPTE!!! Thank you soooo much for all your support, especially to Karen and Miye!! Your webinars are excellent! Thank you thank you thank you! I want to thank my friend Clara who told me about this class!
~ Carla Joiner
The TEP program helped me to set up an effective schedule of studying and I loved the idea of studying one system per day.
Thank you so much to Miye and the TEP community for all the help and support on my NPTE. The TEP team was a very important part of my journey to passing the NPTE on my first attempt. As a foreign educated PT it was great to work with professionals who are so willing to share their knowledge.
The TEP program helped me to set up an effective schedule of studying and I loved the idea of studying one system per day. This allowed me to break down my study into manageable chunks and stopped me from becoming overwhelmed.
I would highly recommend TEP to anyone preparing for the NPTE. Not only does the program prepare you for the NPTE, it also helps prepare you for your career as a PT. Thank you to the TEP team and all the TEP community. Keep sharing.
~ Caragh Lamb
I passed the NPTE!!! I am so very excited and extremely thankful for being able to pursue my dream of being a PT. It has been a very long road with its ups and downs but I never gave up. For those starting the program, remember to BELIEVE in yourself when times get tough. You might feel anxious, frustrated, depressed which are all normal feelings. Good things happen to those who wait. Invest the time, it will pay off. Stick to a schedule, focus on your weaknesses, and remember that you are smart and you deserve it! If you haven’t joined TEP, do so! Special thanks to the whole NPTE team.
~ Nicole Tucker
Thank you TEP, Miye for all your advise and great review class. I finally got over the hurdle. Thank you, thank you and thank you!!! May all those who are striving and working hard get what they deserve, to be a licensed physical therapist! Follow what TEP has to show you and utilize the exam process, it’s awesome!
~ Anchinlema Tassewasmamaw
Thank you TEP for the great moral motivation and teachings, it really open my eyes on how to view the material differently. My final grade was a 640, so I definitely gained a lot of points due to this online course.
Thank you Miye, Alberto and Karen you smart ways of learning made a great difference especially the BRAIN DUMPING idea. No words can express the great feeling, and I thank again to the TEP team.
It has been a long road, but success this is always at the end when you put your time and hard work to achieve your goal. Have a study plan and always take it day by day. Thank you again for you teachings and enforcing to “Always Think Positive”, NPTE team. I encourage others to join and experience the difference of a great course.
~ Miguel Angel Mayorga
I am just so happy to have passed!!! THANK YOU TEP! I just want to say thank you a lot for all those tips and strategies. Mainly the preparation planning and studying one part one system a day it really helped and worked for me. Also here I want to say to all those mothers planning or preparing for the NPTE, make a proper schedule for study and go for it. It is possible to pass even if you are a mother of two just think positive and join TEP! Thanks again Miye!
~ Nausheen Valilluda
I thank Miye, Karen and all other members on TEP for all the help. Your support was very useful. I hope you would help more students to achieve great success!
~ Surya Manmadhudu
Thank you to TEP for giving structure to my review process, for giving me tips on how to manage my time, the tips to relax, the forums. I began to appreciate the value of the forums while in the program and grateful to have my questions answered. Thank you, Miye, Karen, Caroline, Calista, and the rest of the TEP team!
~ Rhianne Ponciano
I felt alone after my prior attempts, but TEP has given me the support and tools for passing utilizing a collaboration approach with my colleagues.
To the entire TEP team,
I would like to give you all a great big THANKS for all of your help through this long process! I checked my results from my October test date & I found out I passed! I am so relieved to have this exam behind me after many grueling months studying & from prior test disappointments.
I’m glad to have come across a study tool that puts the more important aspects of the NPTE into perspective! I did get more out of this program than I would have imagined signing up and after attending previous exam prep courses that were only for a weekend. The tips and strategies were very helpful, as were the live and on-demand webinars. It was also very helpful that there were a core group of individuals that were like myself striving for the same goal, helping each other out. I felt alone after my prior attempts, but TEP has given me the support and tools for passing utilizing a collaboration approach with my colleagues.
Instead of reading the study guide books cover to cover, I decided to take on the different approach to tackle this exam since what I was doing previously obviously did nothing for me whatsoever, and it worked! You can’t cram everything in the books into your head, so I’m so happy that TEP was able to put that into perspective and made me focus on the more important topics to enable me to receive a passing score.
So, again, thank you to the TEP team and the TEP community of participants for all the help, input and advice!
Good luck to those taking the future exams!
~ Angeline Chan
I passed the NPTE!!! I would like to thank my other classmates, Miye, Karen & Caroline; and the entire team at TEP for all their support. I will always be truly grateful for the encouragement I received. I highly recommend TEP to all future students preparing to take NPTE. You will surely pass if you participate and following the course outline. I promise!! Thank you again!!!
~ Kim Nobrega
TEP helped me in getting rid of the anxiety and fear of exam by imagining that it’s just a game which you can fail once and try again. The constant encouragement that you can make it just imagining it as a game will makes you more confident and think much more positively , mind set for the exam is the key for success, wish all of who didn’t pass and preparing for upcoming exams all best luck , enjoy the game.
~ Ahmed Abouelabbas
The tools that I learned were invaluable.
Thank you TEP for your guidance and support. The tools that I learned were invaluable. Especially the exam process and study prep. Your holistic approach gave me the tools to decrease my anxiety and be positive.
This was exactly what I needed to succeed as I failed back in October. I would recommend this course to any but particularly to someone in my position who was taking it to get re-licensed and being out of school for 25 years and not working in the field for 12. Your webinars were great refreshers. Thank you!!!!
~ Rona Frimmer
I have to thank TEP for the support, this program changed my entire outlook towards NPTE. Its through TEP that I realized that it is not about how many hours you study and how many times you revised the entire study book, its about thinking clinically like a PT. I would recommend TEP to all those who are preparing for NPTE. I also want to thank Preeti Senjalia, I learnt a lot through her posts and she was a huge support for me during the last days before the test. THANKS PREETI.
My NPTE journey ends here, with TEP I should say I enjoyed preparing for the NPTE. Cheers guys!
~ Kavya Chelikani
I could not have done it without TEP’s program, the assignments, the accountability, the plan for all of life’s ups and downs, the colleagues I worked with on a daily basis, all of us working towards a common goal. I have a deep respect for each of you on this journey. I thank you Miye, for not letting me get off track when life got hectic. And life happens when you are studying for a year. A divorce, a move, an unplanned surgery but that is life, and that’s why you make a plan. Thanks to Rafael, Rachita, Karen, and Caroline for consistent daily input. Thanks again to my fellow TEP members who helped to keep me active on a daily basis.
I can’t implore you all enough to be active daily, to explore the questions and answers sections and participate. Expose yourself to as many practice exams as you can.
I’m so thankful I found this program.
~ Dana Chadick
I can’t thank TEP enough for the support you have provided me the past few months. I failed the NPTE twice, both times missing by 6-7 questions, this time I passed with flying colors because TEP truly gave me the tools to beat the exam!!
My advice to new TEP participants would be to follow their plan!! Do what they tell you, watch the lectures, be active, ask questions and be CONFIDENT! During the two weeks before the exam it was hard, but I didn’t take any exams nor did I study new material. I made sure I KNEW everything I had studied the past two months and did brain dumps daily!!
Believe in yourself and at the end of the day KNOW YOU CAN DO IT!! Thank you TEP!!
~ Wendy Matson
The exam process made a difference in helping me to achieve my goal.
I found out that I passed the NPTE! I just wanted to say thank you to you and everyone at TEP for your support and encouragement during this process. I have taken the NPTE three times prior to this and TEP really helped me stay focused, organized, and confident. The exam process made a difference in helping me to achieve my goal. Thanks again and good luck to everyone taking the NPTE in the future!!
~ Lindsey Knoph
The exam process is so simple yet amazing when helping to choose the right answers!
I have been trying for months to pass the NPTE and I can finally say I have passed with TEP’s help and guidance! The exam process is so simple yet amazing when helping to choose the right answers! The assignments became study guides which I used for review towards the end of my studying! But the most important thing TEP gave me was positive support and confidence! I hope to help others achieve this great feeling of passing and success too!!! Thank you from the bottom of my heart TEP, mentors (especially Karen, Miye, kitty, and Rafael) for all of your guidance, and participants for all of the support!!! Make sure to complete all TEP assignments an post them as well as thoroughly learning the TEP exam analysis and exam process! It is highly worth it! I recommend all PT students and those want to pass to join TEP’s program!
~ Megha Sood, licensed DPT!
TEP gave me everything that is required to pass this exam.
I just got my result and very happy to see those golden words “PASSED”. TEP gave me everything that is required to pass this exam. I was very much depressed before taking this course. TEP gave me confidence and support from fellow PTs. The exam analysis works very well in exam. Thanks Miye for such a wonderful program. Positive affirmations, visual imagery helped me to decrease tension and made me optimistic person. I would highly recommend this to all my friends.
~ Tulasi Parimi
Thanks a lot TEP!! The material and support you provided through the forums helped a lot. I found that using the exam process was key to passing. One thing that helped the most was positive thinking and attitude. CHEERS TO TEP!
~ Ketaki Mehendale
I would like to thank you, Karen, Alberto, Kitty, Rafael and the rest of TEP team! Kudos to the great TEP program that helped me through my journey of passing the NPTE.
And to all my colleagues: good luck and you’re all in the right path here at TEP! Those that are not in the program, join today!
~ Imelda Tejada
I always have an American dream that is to work and live legally in the United States, and being a Registered Physical Therapist is my ultimate goal, that goal starts with my NPTE journey.
My journey had rough turns and bumps and had two attempts but it didn’t stop me from trying. I asked myself if it was really difficult for a foreign trained to pass the exams. I even started doubting myself if I could be an effective therapist since been out of practice for sometime. I read the review books I’ve known and still I’m missing something until OMS introduced TEP.
Having TEP Is like someone guiding how to study in chunks but in effective way. I realized that it is important to incorporate clinical thinking while studying and most of all, to physically, mentally, emotionally prepare for the exams. If I could say two words that would be Thank you. I passed my exams and I know I have a lot of people to thank to and one of them is Ms. Miye. Thank you, TEP has helped me achieve my goal and that is to be a Registered Physical Therapist.
~ Rowena Checa
The exam analysis helped me a lot not only in understanding the type of questions but also how to approach it.
I wish I had known about TEP before, it is a unique combination of guidance, support, group studies and encouragement. Assignments were very helpful in guiding me where to focus. The exam analysis helped me a lot not only in understanding the type of questions but also how to approach it. Everyday emails from Miye helped me a lot in boosting my confidence. Anytime I had difficulty I would browse the forums and find clarification to my doubts.
Saying your positive affirmation daily really helps guys. Finally, I am very happy to see “PASSED” on my report card. It would not have been possible without TEP’s guidance. I wish everyone success who is taking the exam. I recommend all to join TEP. All the Best guys and THANK YOU very much Miye and TEP family.
~ Rukhmini Vaidya

TEP has helped me a lot especially to not overanalyze the questions as well as all the exam tips and techniques.

Thank you Queen, Miye and Karen. TEP has helped me a lot especially to not overanalyze the questions as well as all the exam tips and techniques.

TEP has taught me to apply exam process and think clinically.
With great pleasure I would like to inform you all that I have cleared the NPTE. This was my first attempt after joining TEP program. I am so excited and the credit goes to all TEP members who have given support and motivation through their posts. Special thanks to Karen, Miye, Vidhu, Rachita and all the members who were active on the forum. I was continuously following all the forums and the topics which were being discussed as I found all of the topics to be relevant to the actual exam.
TEP has taught me to apply exam process and think clinically. These 2 things are the mantras for the success. Again a big thankyou and I am suggesting to all my friends who are preparing to join this program.

TEP definitely was the guidance or road map I needed to stay focused and confident throughout my journey.
I am just elated and proud of myself for all the hard work I have put into my NPTE Journey. I also want to say that TEP definitely was the guidance or road map I needed to stay focused and confident throughout my journey. Without TEP, Miye, Karen and all the other participants I would not be where I am right now. So I want to say thank you. I also want to say to anyone out there getting ready to take the test I understand how you feel and what you are going through and I want to let you know you can do this or YOU HAVE DONE THIS YOU HAVE PASSED!!!. Thank you all again.

I am so thankful for TEP. I truly used every technique from study habits, visualization, reading exam questions, brain dumps, etc. After I saw my score and reading the word “PASS” on my status request, I was shaking and excited to share the news with the family to lift everyone’s spirits. Thank you all for everything and giving me the tools that I needed to succeed. This is a great program and if I come across anyone that is struggling with the exam process, then I will refer them to TEP.

I just wanted to share that I passed the NPTE. Thank you everyone in Therapy exam prep for helping through my journey! I used the TEP approach to answer my questions and it helped me pass my test!
I was really having issues understanding what the questions were asking. The TEP approach helped me analyze and narrow the questions/answers. The forms were also a big help with my thought process in understanding material.
~ Ogechi Egbujor

~ Donna Ramstead
I am very thankful to TEP for all the guidance throughout my NPTE journey. All of the live webinars, on demand videos, assignments and forum discussions are all very helpful. I wish future NPTE candidates good luck and follow TEP guidelines.
~ Soya Babu
TEP’s study tips and active participation on forums have been of great help.
I am so very grateful to TEP without which I would not have reached the success so soon. TEP’s study tips and active participation on forums have been of great help. The constant motivation and encouragement from Miye, Karen and Rafael helped me to gain the confidence in myself. I am thankful to all my batch mates who were with me in this journey. I wish everyone a great future and success ahead.
~ Namrata
Thank you TEP for the outline and guidance in what to study and how to study for the exam! You made passing the NPTE achievable!
~ Jason Park
Being in TEP was a huge success in helping me pass this exam.
I wanted to give a huge thanks to a well planned and scheduled preparation technique toward the NPTE that I did not incorporate before by the excellent teachers and students herein TEP. Being in TEP was a huge success in helping me pass this exam. If you have been unsuccessful in taking the exam, keep your head up, remain positive, and learn how the questions are presented and, better yet, how to break them down. All this helped me considerably. Good luck to all those taking the NPTE! Remember…You’ll pass!!!!
~ Nathan Gibson
TEP’s exam process is a HUGE help!
I passed my NPTE! Thank you to Miye who is the brains for coming up with this review program! To Karen who had always been there to support me even in the lowest times! To all the TEP participants who unselfishly shared their experiences and knowledge. The things you have shared made me feel that I am not alone in this journey!
I must say TEP’s program design helped me achieve my dream to be a physical therapist. TEP’s exam process is a HUGE help! Having your focus topics, using the sandwich approach when studying, daily 3’s, and health tracking are only some of the things that help me during this journey. I will recommend TEP not only to the new graduates but to a 1997 PT graduate like me who is a full time employee, a mom and a daughter. NO EXCUSES as Miye would say! So for all the future test takers out there, YOU can do this!
Thank you Miye! Thank You Karen! Thank you TEP! More power to your TEP team! I am forever indebted to YOU!
~ Fritzie Griego, PT
I wish I had known about it when I was studying for the exam the first time, it would have made my life a lot easier!
Your program really helped me stay positive and really motivated me to keep going with my studies. By helping me set goals and space things out not only eased my mind but also made studying this time around a lot easier. My score on the second exam was 598 and this time was 649. I had a much clearer understanding of the test and the program helped me view the exam in a different light (more clinical thinking than academic).
I would recommend this program to other individuals. I wish I had known about it when I was studying for the exam the first time, it would have made my life a lot easier! I wish you best wishes for the rest of your career and with this program! Thanks so much once again!

I couldn’t have done it without the TEP and am now a licensed physical therapist in the state of Iowa.
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 course I learned so much about myself as a student, 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 Miye!!!

I want to thank you for the help you provided with TEP. I passed the NPTE that I took on 10/23 and ended up scoring very well overall. I feel that the TEP program was very useful to me as an adjunct to my regular study method to let me know what to expect on the exam. Incorporating the TEP method and structure with my personal study habits was very helpful. The extra forum support at the end was also fantastic! I will definitely recommend it to students at the University of Oklahoma Health sciences center (OUHSC) and anyone I may run into in the Boston area where I now live! Thank you very much for everything!

Making sure that there was a little bit done every day to bring me success was exactly what I needed.
I passed my exam. I cannot thank you and the TEP staff enough. The way the program was broken down and specific assignments were a new way to learn for me. I am lucky enough to have found a program that worked with my style of learning. Making sure that there was a little bit done every day to bring me success was exactly what I needed. I think I benefited most by the continued feedback I received with the daily posts. The best advice I could give for TEP participants is to stay active. It was really important for me to feel a part of a “team” instead of studying with colleagues where it still felt like a competition. Thank you so much for your help.
~ J. Lewis
I passed!!! Thank you so much for the help! TEP definitely helped guide my studying and prepare me better! You’re awesome!! It was awesome, touched all bases on how to prepare and gave me the confidence to take the test with pride and know I passed without a doubt in my mind.
~ Matt Vellucci
TEP helped me get organized, study smarter, and think positive.
During my initial attempt to prepare for the NPTE I was anxious, unorganized, and my method of studying was not adequate to pass the exam. TEP helped me get organized, study smarter, and think positive. The constant online support from staff and members was extremely helpful. The webinars and assignments helped get me on track, which improved my confidence tremendously. I am happy to report that I have passed the NPTE thanks to TEP and I wholeheartedly recommend this program to others. Good luck to those preparing for the exam!
~ Aracelis Rodriguez
I want to let you know that thanks to TEP, I was able to plan and organize my studies. At first, I didn’t know where to begin but after taking practice exams, I was able to identify my deficiencies, create a list of focus topics and work on them. I learned how to analyze a question and the multiple choices using a step by step exam process you provided. Since the program was based on patient / clinical scenarios approach, it was helpful to improve my clinical thinking. The fact of having you and Karen to get feedback and help during this time as well as a study partner everyday to follow the study plan, has made the journey less difficult.
~ C. Santa
The main advantages of the program are:
1. For a new student who is going to take NPTE it helps to take the right approach.
2. The forum has a lot of clinical reasoning material which help to understand concepts.
3. Helps to meet students who are sailing in the same direction and make friends.
4. All of the above, all the staff are dedicated in their work.

I found TEP very helpful in preparing for the NPTE. Instead of just jumping right into studying they provided the tools to help the student find balance between studying and our daily lives. I learned to take time to meditate, relax, have fun, and be a productive studier each day. They really focus on the whole person not just the part of us that needs to pass the exam. The daily assignments helped me stay on track and regain focus. I was always provided encouragement and help when I needed it. TEP takes something that is very stressful and makes manageable and less overwhelming.
~ Damhnait Porter
TEP has provided me with easy tips and tools to approach the NPTE in a relaxed frame of mind. Eating the right foods and integrating physical activity into your lifestyle is a prudent component to a healthy, focused and relaxed mindset. TEP helped me realize that its not always to your benefit to study 12 hrs a day because your mind needs to process what you learned. TEP allowed and encouraged me to do the things I loved at the same time as studying. Life does not need to be put on hold in order to succeed down this journey. To those who may be reading this, do not give up on your dream. If you made it this far, you are capable of passing this exam. Good Luck to all!

The most helpful benefit from TEP I can say would be the approach you use – EXAM ANALYSIS.
I am getting great benefits after joining the TEP program. I am thoroughly happy I opted for this program. Thank you so much Miye, you always keep me on my toes and I like that. The most helpful benefit from TEP I can say would be the approach you use – EXAM ANALYSIS. I realized how crucial this is to arrive at the correct answer from all the helpful little hints you gave us. Hats off to you Miye. TEP ALWAYS ROCKS!!!!!!!! I am already spreading the word of TEP to my friends and how I am benefiting from it. I HAVE PASSED THE NPTE – is my slogan nowadays. Thank you so much Miye for building so much confidence within me.

We have someone we can ask questions if we need to.
I am enrolled in TEP and LOVE the course. We have webinars (like a class), we have assignments, support, and guidance about all the aspects of the exam including the mental, emotional, physical pieces that all need to come together to pass this exam. We in TEP have a moderator for our forums so that all information posted is correct. We have someone we can ask questions if we need to. We have all of the other members to bounce ideas off of and get encouragement. I have a totally different outlook on the exam this time around and I know that TEP is responsible for my new POSITIVE and confident attitude towards the NPTE.

They really are one of the best NPTE preparation programs at a reasonable price.
I am a PT from India, planning to take my NPTE on May 25th. I signed up for the TEP course a few weeks ago and I am really loving it. It’s been about 7 years now since I graduated so I needed guidance regarding a study plan that will work when you are taking care of 2 kids and the household work. TEP not only provides such a study plan but it also takes care of other important things like health tracking, fears, staying positive, visual imagery, strengths and weakness assessments. Miye Fonseca has been very helpful with her prompt replies all the time with all our questions and concerns. I not only get all the tips about NPTE preparation but it also helps me to stay motivated. It has given me a positive attitude now when I study. TEP is there to help you with everything regarding a sample study plan, weekly schedule, daily plan, webinars that emphasis on each system, understanding the NPTE exam thoroughly. The program also stresses on clinical thinking as a PT rather than just studying from the textbooks. As far as the security concerns it is totally safe with no exchange of any exam questions and any copyrighted materials. They really are one of the best NPTE preparation programs at a reasonable price and provide positive and true feedback every time.

The little tips on the best times to study and what to focus on really helped. Also taking the day off before the exam, I think that helped to relax me a little bit. I think the fact that someone was there who was an ‘outsider’ (not close friend or family member) also grounded me a bit because I knew they weren’t just saying things to help me chill out, but they really had good tips they wanted to share with me so I would pass the NPTE. I think that if anyone is nervous about making sure they cover all the different concepts tested on the NPTE, and want someone who will help them every step of the way and keep you honest about it, I think this will be a great addition to your study technique!
~ Lauren Q.
Thanks to your advice to take the tests — i always used to think that we need to complete studying all the topics before giving the sample test. now i know where to start my preparation.
~ Iraavi
Breaking the outline of focus topics into content sections, has helped me see more of my weaknesses and understand the NPTE not only by system but by content now. This doesn’t look overwhelming anymore, it is do-able.
~ Rita
With TEP, it is great because there is someone to give you feedback on everything
This course has just started and it has been extremely helpful already! Usually the past courses that I have taken, they just go over a few topics, and some suggestions during studying, but they don’t really guide you after that, you are just on your own. With TEP, it is great because there is someone to give you feedback on everything, from eating right, to studying, and to thinking positive. For me this is all important, because I have taken the exam before, and have lost motivation and started thinking it was impossible. But with the help of TEP in designing on a daily schedule it has kept me more focused than ever, and I have learned more now than when studying on my own without guidance. I hope to continue to grow with this course!
~ Rita B. Gambhir
Your TEP course helps me a lot. It can’t be explained in a word actually. Before TEP I didn’t even know where to start. But now I am confident enough to take the NPTE. TEP makes me well organized in both my personal life and study style. TEP saves my time, energy and money. I feel so lucky. I will highly recommend TEP to all other NPTE takers.”
Thanks to you and all other members of TEP.
