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,

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.

looking for is the best way to feel confident moving throughout that exam, all right?

And it takes skill in order to do that. And today,

we're going to just take another look at a question that really challenge your ability to
