NPTE-PTA® Exam Prep 2017

The National Physical Therapy Exam (NPTE) is the exam that candidates must take if they want to become a physical therapist assistant (PTA). The NPTE-PTA examination is administered by the Federation of State Boards of Physical Therapy (FSBPT®) and consists of 150 questions that fall within four domains of practice.
Pocket Prep’s NPTE-PTA practice test app is a powerful exam simulator that allows you to create customized practice tests with detailed answer explanations for every question. View your results and exam history with just a few taps. Study anywhere at any time without Internet.

The app utilizes the “spacing effect” to enhance your learning capability. You’ll space out your studying into shorter, more productive study sessions which allow your brain to retain more information. Simply tell the app how many questions you want to take, enable the timer, and filter exam content to create the perfect study experience.

- Two practice modes: simulation and study
- Content updates pushed automatically
- Automatic test saving and retrieval
- Detailed history and results reporting

some of the questions are wrong and some are poorly elaborated. It is a good app but it can confuse people with some of the questions. One example is about the Glasgow coma scale, it says that it is a rating scale from 1 to 6 and you are supposed to answer what a patient should do with a rating of 4. In the first place you add all the scores. The lowest score you can get is a 3 and the highest a 15. A 4 would be for someone in coma. The answer and the explanation they give you is wrong.

I have appreciated this app and felt like it was preparing me for my exam. I purchased the premium version a while ago, but then last night after I got through all 600 questions, an ad came up offering an ultimate version with 300 extra questions and endless question of the day for $15. I thought this sounded like a great deal. I paid but nothing has changed. I have no new questions and am unable to access more than 1 QOTD. Tried to contact pocket prep through the app with no answer.

I've only done a few practice exams on the free version but so far they seem like really good questions and related to my college classes! I will continue to use and update if anything changes!

Dan. R. Feb 13, 2019     

Only had it for a few days. The questions of the day are the same in he 10 practice questions which is a little dissapointing, but anything offering free quizzes is always helpful!

Pretty decent app to study since there's not competence in Android system. Many questions are poorly elaborated our just wrong (specially gait with AD). Other than that is an Ok app and it helps to study. it would be beneficial if it had a button to report the bad questions or explanations.

Mat. H. Apr 28, 2019     

The questions and explanations are fine but the cost is a huge barrier to entry. My PTA class have all expressed that they would purchase the extra questions if it was priced more reasonable.

Cou. D. Jul 6, 2019     

I appreciate that the app let's you choose content areas and tells you where your strengths and weaknesses lie. I have come across a question or two where the right answer is marked as "wrong".

A. G. u. Oct 14, 2019     

I have used this app and score builders and I love it. It has helped me pass the NPTE. It is easy to use and I can just easily access it on my phone. If I get an answer wrong it explains it.

I am still in the beginning of my PTA program. But this app is great for preparing for my regular exams. I also think that using this app now will help me be more prepared for the licensure exam a year from now.

Similar to score builders with detailed explanations. Extra practice convenient and available while waiting at the doctor's office or riding passenger in the car.

Could not log in with either of my emails. It kept saying invalid password or email when I was just trying to create the account.

lets you see what areas are you good or not so good in like muslce skeletal, wound care, neurological ect. I love it!!

Sav. T. Oct 10, 2019     

I used this app throught the PTA program and prep for the NPTE-PTA. This app had very similar question styles that mimics the exam. I passed my exam on first attempt with using pocket prep and score builders!!

Seems like a cool convenient app for quick studying.I have the free app. I have not purchased the premium version yet.

Jen. K. Mar 11, 2019     

I enjoy the convenience of this app, have never had issues with it, however, it becomes repetitive after awhile.

Gab. P. Apr 17, 2019     

After using score builders and comparing to this app.... This app is way better! It uses O'Sullivan for references, and the questions are all relevant. Score builders is not always relevant to PTA's. Just knowing that the ppl who create the board exams made this app is reassuring enough to me that this is preparing me well for test day. Highly recommended!

Ala. W. Jan 9, 2019     

great questions! very useful because you can take them anywhere you take your phone or tablet with the app!

A. G. u. Mar 24, 2019     

rip off. I bought the premium, used it for one day, and now it's shutting down, and not responding to my login and pw. don't buy this app!

Ale. C. Jul 19, 2019     

so far the free version has been good. I am considering upgrading and will revise my review if I do.

Sha. H. Apr 24, 2021     

I paid for premium on this app and then they updated to another app called medical pocket prep and are now requesting a monthly fee for premium

Mor. M. May 30, 2019     

I think some of these questions were easier but overall it's a great practice app!

Tay. L. Nov 26, 2018

How. C. May 10, 2019

V. f. Sep 21, 2021     

You can't use the app it is immediately disabled since March 2021

And. B. Jul 26, 2019     

Very good questions complete with citations from textbooks used in actual PTA school.

Tah. N. Jun 7, 2019     

very useful with helpful explainations for each answer and incorrect answer

yo. d. Jun 17, 2019     

The question of the day repeats too much to be worth it, but its a good tool nonetheless

Fer. M. May 29, 2019     

I love the explanation after each question it's very helpful.

A. G. u. Nov 18, 2018
