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.

beyond 90 degrees due to stiffness and mark restriction

and active range of motion. Which intervention is most appropriate at this stage? So we have A,

resisted external rotation with a resistance band. B, active assisted range of motion for shoulder

flexion. C. Pend of motion for shoulder flexion.

C, pendulum exercises for shoulder mobility.

And D is isometric strengthening of the super sphinatus.

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

And before we do that, I want you to know that surgical protocols are important for the NPTE.

Oftentimes, it's important to know where the protocols are important for the MPTE. Oftentimes, it's important

to know where the patient is at in the rehab process, but most importantly, where's the tissue at
