0:00.0	I'm Kyle Rice, awful test taker turned physical therapists and standardized test coach for over 5,000 physical therapists worldwide.
0:09.0	It wasn't that long ago that I struggle with anxiety, lack of confidence, and the fear of failing the NPTE.
0:16.0	Fast forward through the challenges, the 13 standardized test failures, and many lessons learn. And you'll see the life
0:22.4	I have today, a life filled with love, financial freedom, and a dream job that allows me to
0:27.8	change lives every single day. I created the NPTE Clinical Files podcast to give you simple,
0:34.4	actionable strategies, along with a step-by-step walkthrough of NPTE-based questions.
0:40.5	All of this so that you can dominate your exam like I did and achieve your dream.
0:45.5	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.
0:53.1	Enjoy the show.
0:55.0	For this week's clinical file, we are going to switch it up. That's right. We're going to be
0:59.8	doing a clinical scenario today, very similar to what you're going to see on the NPTE.

1:11.9	scenario. And the reason why I'm doing that is the 2024 MPTEs will have these types of questions.
1:18.4	And I can't wait to show you this new type here in a moment. Now, here's the thing. As the weeks
1:24.9	progress, as you know, this podcast comes out every single week. And what we're
1:30.1	going to do is mix it up for you a bit so that you're getting straight up questions sometimes,
1:36.5	like we've typically have done in the past. And then some of the weeks, you're going to have
1:40.9	these clinical scenarios. Keep in mind, the reason why I'm doing that is because on your NPTE, it's not going to be just, you're going to have these clinical scenarios. Keep in mind, the reason why I'm doing that
1:45.0	is because on your NPTE, it's not going to be just straight up clinical scenarios. You're only
1:51.6	going to have about maybe 40 questions or so that are based on some clinical scenario. However,
1:58.6	the remaining amount of questions, which will be closer to like the
2:01.9	180 range, are going to be just straight up questions, right? So you've got to be ready for both
