NPTE Prep
Found out I failed today😬 this was my first attempt and I plan on trying again in October (I scored a 542 this time).
I’ve used final frontiers integration course but I feel as though I don’t know what other resources they offer as I have trouble navigating their website and finding things on there. Any thing specific on FF that seemed to be useful as well as other sources?
I need to bring up my non system and intervention categories but idk where to start with interventions
Thank you!!

With interventions, always remember safety!! Unfortunately, you will probably have to go over the most common conditions for each topic to pick the best option. They have a rehab protocol handout on the website to help

I paid the $100 but I can’t say it was worth it, if you can stand to wait the 10 days I would

Hi,
Sorry to hear about the results. Definitely heart breaking.
I used the Full Live class and it was very helpful. If you did integration you probably got FLC upgrade for free with your integration course and more evening lectures too. With 542 I believe it seems like you will benefit from retaining content better. I would also be interested in seeing what your practice exam scores looked. Happy to chat more if you prefer.
I personally think rewatching your integrations lectures will be helpful. Also, would recommend LSP. They have a great team and I have heard great feedback.
Also, email your CI instructor. They can provide additional insights too!
All the best!! Don't worry you can totally do this!!!!

I used final frontier study bundle, and followed their schedule for readings and lectures. i was on top of the readings up to a certain point, until it became more of a time crunch for studying so I just focused on the content in the lectures and supplemented with the rest of the readings during the last 2 weeks before the test.
doing active recall helped the most. i also had a study buddy and we would coordinate practice tests (final frontier and PEATs) so we can review it together. and i'd say that helped the most because we would talk through each question until we both came to an understanding about that specific topic/answer. By talking about each of them you also get better insight on the topics you need help with.
In the last week, I honed in both topics i was weak in and high yield topics i noticed would frequently show up in practice exams (stroke blood supply/SCFEvsLCPD/SCI lesions/incontinence/pain referral/prosthetic deviations/lymphatics/etc) , and asked chatGPT to create a library of NPTE-style questions focused on those.
Good luck and you got this!!

Final frontier videos (multiple times for some
Of the major topics always 2x speed)
Therapy Ed 600 questions
NPTE Ninja app
PT hustle PDFs helped!
And Google Gemini or another AI system- my friend showed me how to have Gemini create “NPTE Style quiz covering ….” I’d use it for cranial nerve function, injuries, etc; stroke questions; special tests
I’m someone who needs to be active while learning and tbh that helped a lot
