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.

C, necrotic tissue, and D is infection. All right, let's go up to the top of this one. This is a good

question. It goes into that

integumentary world. But here's a deal. I get questions all the time from students who take

the MPTE. They come back to me like coach, the questions are so different from practice

exams that I've taken. They know exactly how to ask the question to get you down to the final two

where you just don't

know which one to pick. And I'm like, yes, I hear that all the time. Now, when it really comes down

to questions, we got to understand what we need to pull out that allows us to arrive at that final
