Still deciding which prep is right?
Our exam-specific programs are built to help students focus their time, track progress, and prepare with trusted TherapyEd materials.
TherapyEd is the publisher of the Review & Study Guides it sells, and it sets its own prices. Sometimes people buy books from us and sell them somewhere else (such as Amazon), always at a higher price (sometimes much higher).
The PT and OT courses are each two full days. The PTA and OTA courses are one full day.
The NPTE Review & Study Guide is updated every year and the new edition comes out in the fall. For example, the 2025 NPTE Review & Study Guide will come out in the fall of 2024. The Review & Study Guide for the NBCOT’s OTR exam is updated every two to four years to be current with the exam. The PTA Review & Study Guide is updated every two to five years to be current with the exam outline. The Review & Study Guide for the NBCOT’s COTA exam is updated every two to four years to be current with the exam.
E-Books can be accessed through the TherapyEd website by clicking on the “E-Book” link at the top of the page, next to the shopping cart. You’ll be using the award-winning RedShelf eReader with built-in study tools including highlighting, definitions, text-to-speech, flashcards, note-sharing, and more. Your E-Book can be accessed with a computer, tablet, or phone.
Because the FSBPT and NBCOT (the licensing and certification bodies) do not release the exams there is no way to precisely correlate the TherapyEd practice exams to the actual exams. Regardless of your score on the first practice test, the goal of these tests is to improve your score with each take. We give you the tools to learn test-taking skills and identify your areas of weakness, to best prepare you for exam day.
