TherapyEd’s NPTE Review and Study Guide is the profession’s # 1 best-selling guide. It’s authors, Dr. Susan O’Sullivan and Dr. Raymond Siegelman, are two of the most distinguished educators in the profession. Our exceptional contributors include program directors, senior faculty members, board certified specialists, and experienced clinicians.

Celebrating 15 years in print, TherapyEd’s NPTE Review and Study Guide is recognized as the most trusted resource in exam preparation by students, faculty, and practicing therapists throughout the country. The 2012 Guide prepares students for all aspects of the NPTE with a comprehensive review of physical therapy content, study and test-taking strategies, state licensure information, and three complete simulated exams on CD. The practice questions are the most reflective of the actual exam while challenging students to properly prepare for the breadth, depth, and rigor of the NPTE.

The CD has new software that is the most advanced in the profession. It provides students the unique ability to “create an exam” drawing from the entire 600 question database. Test yourself in specific domains, content categories, and critical reasoning skills, or limit the number of questions to fit the time available. The software improves exam performance efficiently and effectively, and gives students the practice necessary to pass the NPTE the first time.
