“I bought the book for the OTR exam and I passed due to this fantastic, well written book. I bought two other books before this one and I failed the exam the first time. Then I purchased this book and only studied this book for the OTR exam and I passed!! The reason why this book was especially helpful was because it wasn’t just filled with questions and answers like the two books that I ordered before this one. Having all of the information needed in ONE book makes studying for this exam much easier. Thank you for your help with my exam preparation and for helping me succeed in the field of Occupational Therapy!”
