Great care is taken to make sure the questions are developed using the format and style used on the actual examination. Each question is designed to be reflective of subject matter contained within the current examination blueprint published by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy. Our item writers include a mix of academic faculty and full time clinicians with a variety of advanced degrees and clinical specializations. Students routinely comment that our sample exams are extremely consistent with the difficulty level of the actual National Physical Therapy Examinations.
