I'm Kyle Rice, awful test taker turned physical therapists and standardized test coach for over 5,000 physical therapists worldwide.

It wasn't that long ago that I struggle with anxiety, lack of confidence, and the fear of failing the NPTE.

Fast forward through the challenges, the 13 standardized test failures, and many lessons learn. And you'll see

the life I have today, a life filled with love, financial freedom, and a dream job that

allows me to change lives every single day. I created the NPTE Clinical Files podcast to

give you simple, actionable strategies, along with a step-by-step walkthrough of NPTE-based questions.

All of this so that you can dominate your exam like I did and achieve your dream.

So if you're a driven PT student who's looking to pass the NPTE and start creating a life you love,

you're in the right place.

Enjoy the show.

For this week's clinical file, we have Rachel and Rachel presents with knee pain that worsens with activity and improves

with rest. She describes stiffness lasting about 30 minutes in the morning and difficulty with

stairs. On examination, there is mild joint swelling and crepitous with knee flexion and extension.

Which examination finding is most indicative of knee osteoarthritis? So we have A, positive McMurray

test, B, reduce knee flexion range of motion. C, medial joint line tenderness and D is presence

of effusion. All right, let's go up to the top of this

question. This is a good one. If it shows up on the MPTE like this, these types of questions are

very difficult because multiple answers seem like it could be correct, leaving you down to the

final two, don't know which one to pick.

And so I had to throw a question in here just like this so we can solve through it.

And I could show you how to solve through it.

Does that sound good?
