Passtheot was a real game changer for me. After studying with this program, I felt more prepared for the nbcot exam. The videos and study content were so thorough and relevant to the exam. Tutors Emma and Erika were my favorite for the group calls. Let's face it, this is a hard exam with so much material, but passtheot focuses on the essentials. The support team was great as well.Thank you  all so much!

Kate was amazing!! She was so patient and kind throughout my journey. It took a few attempts to pass, but I couldn’t have done it without her. She taught me different ways to approach the exam/questions that were so helpful on test day. She also helped boost my confidence! Highly recommend Kate!!!

I felt so lost studying for the exam, I study for a month just on a plan I made on my own I was using TrueLearn but felt tlike it wasnt really helping me, questions felt so complicated compared to the ones on the NBCOT study pack. I heard of PassTheOT and though you know what let me try it for 2 weeks and I got it 2 weeks before emy exam. I LOVED it, I regretted not getting in sooner, they create a study plan for you, they have all the key information that can pop up on the exam as well as more detail info. they give you assessments to take to see where you are, they give you key topics to study, study guides, reccomendation videos you can see through youtube and the main thing that I think helped me pass was the GROUP CALLs. EMMA thank you , she was such an amazaing tutor I would watch her group calls and she just was IT. I give her so much credit for me passing. PLEASE USE IT, USE PASSTHEOT!!!!. GET IT

I love the pass OT tutors. I had sessions with Jessica and Tucker and genuinely believe this helped me to pass. I took the test 3 times and passed on my third try! They helped me to understand the questions and get rid of all the fluff. Also helped me to gain confidence back! They were so sweet and were upfront when I needed it!

I finally got the news today that I am officially an OTR! I truly couldn't have done it without the help of two amazing tutors: Tucker Wrights and Jessica Charron. Tucker has helped me not only with strengthening content, but with breaking down tough questions. His specialty is Neuro, but he is extremely intelligent and well versed in a multitude of topics extending well beyond Neuro, and I've learned so much from him in the past few months.

I first was introduced to Jessica durning an Accelerator Course she ran and found it extremely helpful, so I decided to book a few individual tutoring sessions with her before my next exam. She was extremely thorough, diligent, and just as Tucker did, she helped to break down difficult topics so that they were easier to understand. She puts forth a HUGE amount of effort and truly wants to see her students pass, which is evident in her pre and post quizzes that she gives during every session. She's the perfect balance of fun and work, and I left every session feeling positive and hopeful.

After 3 failed attempts (435, 441 and 442) I finally made a 17 pt jump to passing at 459! I couldn't be more grateful to have finally made it, and please know if you're struggling and reading this- NEVER GIVE UP! No matter how long or how many times it takes, in the end it doesn't matter. The only way you won't get there is if you throw in the towel. Believe in yourself, have faith and know that no matter how many times you fail, you WILL pass!

Yayyy I passed the NBCOT official a licensed occupational therapist!! Pass The OT really helped me a lot. I got a 470! I did four tutoring sessions and also took the Intensive Course, which helped me so much. The course/ working with tutors both really teach you how to think through and answer the questions effectively. I’d recommend if you haven’t passed previously do private tutoring at least 1-2 sessions because for me it changed how I think and answer questions. The intensive course was really  awesome. During it they went through questions and did a brief review of each topic was amazing for me right before the exam.

Stephanie from Pass The OT chat also helped me figure out where to focus my studying and how to use the program in the best way possible, I appreciate that she always made time to answer my questions. She helped me understand how to use my time effectively.  I started with the assessment, then spent the next two weeks focusing on my weak areas with the tutors, and finished with the Intensive Course

I also wanted to add that I’ve used many other sources (literally every single source you can think of for the NBCOT ) I’ve used for this exam but this was what I needed, I wish I had used it earlier on in my studying I’m sure I would have passed sooner.

I worked with tutors Jordon, Cory, and Tucker  they were all amazing and supportive! I felt like it also gave me so much more confidence going in to take it again. I’m so grateful for Pass The OT for helping me finally reach my goal, thank you!

I LOVED Pass the OT and really felt like it helped me so much because I could go at my own pace! I felt discouraged after my attempt, but this was a game changer to me! I loved the one-on-one tutor sessions, but the group calls were such help! Highly recommend!!

Thanks to Pass the OT platform and team I was able to report my passing NBCOT score yesterday. After two unsuccessful attempts I found Pass the OT and have to send a huge thank you to the whole Pass the OT staff. A special thank you to my private tutor Jessica C. She was so patient and efficient each session. I increased my score 55 points!!! From 436 to a 491 and the third time really was a charm. They believed in me as well as my close friends and family even when I didn’t believe in myself after the first two exam attempts. I am forever grateful.

I loved the pass the OT program! It helped me through my school work, clinical experiences and also studying up until my test day. I really loved the feedback I would get on the quizzes and tests; and the group calls are wonderful! It’s basically a free tutoring session! I’m so grateful my school paid for my membership and I can proudly say I PASSED MY EXAM ON MY FIRST ATTEMPT!

Pass the OT was a difference maker for me! Went up 41 points in 4 weeks and passed the test! Also, Emma and Cory were incredible tutors! Especially Emma, I could not thank you enough for not only breaking the questions down, but reviewing content on a shared documents for each of the sessions. I had to learn how I personally learned best, and Pass the OT’s group calls, video content, highlighted content within the modules, and the quizzes is what helped me. I recommend!

The intensive courses that were led by Tutor Jessica were extremely beneficial in breaking down questions and gain confidence in answering tough content in the exam!

I recently passed the NBCOT exam on my first attempt, and Pass the OT played a huge role in helping me get there! The structured modules, study guides, and practice questions gave me exactly what I needed to stay organized and focus on my weak areas.

I also want to give special credit to Kate and Cory:

Kate- I had several tutoring sessions with her, and she taught me test-taking strategies that helped me better comprehend the questions. She also helped me build self-confidence and recognize the best answers with clarity. I highly recommend her for anyone who is getting close to their exam date.

Cory- He was excellent in the group calls, especially when covering splinting, hand, and nerve injuries. For visual learners, his explanations and examples make the content much easier to understand.

Thanks to Pass the OT and their amazing team, I walked into my exam prepared and walked out certified! I would highly recommend this program to anyone getting ready for the NBCOT.

I used Pass the OT for 3 months while studying for the NBCOT OTR exam and I felt so supported by the community, support staff  and tutors, specifically Jessica and Emma. They were so supportive, encouraging & knowledgable and helped me break down questions and topics that were challenging which significantly raised my confidence. They were flexible with their schedules and very intentional with all of my tutoring sessions which made me feel like I was getting my money’s worth. The supplemental worksheets and videos on Pass the OT were super beneficial & helped me understand the material better.

After struggling with passing the NBCOT, I finally decided to use PassTheOT, which I had put off due to the price and not knowing if it was worth it. I found PTOT to be very holistic in structure with content, highlighted charts, topic videos, practice questions, podcasts, tutoring, and more! I had used other good resources for content and even questions, BUT none told me how to approach a question clearly. This was my continued struggle and the recorded group calls (with Cory especially), plus private tutoring (with Cory and Landis), really enlightened me as to how I needed to approach these questions. Stephanie also reached out to encourage me and highlight my weaker subjects to work on. Additionally, because I was so nervous for my exam, I bought The Final Countdown course with Jessica C. and loved how it summarized a lot of the information I had been studying. She further emphasized the approach (learned from using the program) I had been practicing with questions and clarified any doubts. Definitely, invest in a good study program from the start even if it's a financial sacrifice, or you risk spending way more with re-testing and buying more resources.  Again, I used a lot of resources that were helpful but not enough for my struggles or to help me pass, PTOT was the most holistic. When I couldn't read another word on the screen, I loved hearing the recorded group calls and podcasts. I dare say that if you have money for one resource only, use it on PTOT but use it thoroughly to rip the full benefits. I thank God I found this program, God bless the team and continue doing a great job!

I believe that having a private tutoring session with Kate is what mainly helped me to pass on my third try. She took the time to understand where I was struggling and help me get over the barriers. I have already begun recommending Pass the OT to future graduates! It’s worth every dollar spent.

Pass the OT was truly a game changer for me. I worked with tutors Kate, Jess, and Tucker, all of whom were incredible. Sharlene in the Live Chat was also outstanding—her support was incredibly helpful. What sets Pass the OT’s live chat apart is that it’s not an automated service; you're talking to a real person, and Sharlene went above and beyond, even checking in with me via email. Stephanie was another amazing source of support, offering encouragement, answering my questions, and helping me find the right content. Pass the OT is unmatched. Their videos and pre/post tests were essential in helping me connect my visual and auditory learning styles, which ultimately helped me pass the exam on my fourth attempt with a score of 468. I’ll never stop recommending Pass the OT to anyone preparing for the NBCOT boards. Thanks to Pass the OT, my dream of becoming a board-certified occupational therapist has come true.

Pass The OT is a great study program! However you study best, Pass The OT can offer it. Whether that be studying by reading, studying by watching videos, studying by being quizzed or studying with private tutors. This program offers it all. My first score was a 423 and I passed after using this program with a 469. Highly recommended Pass The OT.

I tried a lot of resources for my first attempt on the exam. I then found PasstheOT. Between the recorded lectures and the private tutoring sessions, they are the reason I passed my exam. I had Kate as my tutor for 6 sessions, and she was amazing. I felt more prepared than I ever had after my sessions with her. I would recommend this to anyone, no matter what attempt they are on for their exam!

I started with this resource as a first time test taker and loved the set up! This resource truly caters to all different types of learners. Stephanie truly made it personal by reaching out me multiple times throughout my studying to check in and help with anything I needed. With the last few weeks I used Jessica as a tutor and she exponentially increased my confidence and made me believe in myself. I do not think I would have passed the exam without this resource!

PasstheOT was so helpful for me in passing the NBCOT. I spent 10 weeks using the program and my score went up 53 points. I owe so much of this improvement to my tutor Megan! She was so helpful in helping me gain the confidence in myself and that I truly knew the material, I just needed to slow down and stay calm.

I highly recommend using PasstheOT and scheduling tutoring sessions with Megan along with watching her recorded lectures!

We are the proud parents of a newly Certified OTA! Knowing that tests like these can be challenging, we decided to commit to the “Pass the OT” program early-on and we’re thankful that we did! Having the program’s structure and its resources has been instrumental in our daughter’s success!All of the tutors are experienced and supportive! In fact, we found the entire team to be very sympathetic and understanding along the way! It was clear to us that they genuinely cared and were rooting for our daughter’s success! Our daughter persevered despite having to take the exam a few times. It’s great to have the exam completed and we appreciate all of the encouragement! Thank you to the entire “Pass the OT” team!

I found the videos and practice tests really helpful and have also used the private tutoring sessions which were super helpful! Would definitely recommend this site to OT students to use when studying for this exam! It was a huge help in studying for my exam.

Pass the OT was a great resource for me! The  various types of study tools (videos, lectures, charts, etc.) were so beneficial throughout each of the modules. I would highly recommend private tutoring sessions if you’re feeling anxious or uneasy about the exam. Personally, I chose one tutor and met with her multiple times and found that worked best for me. She was a great help to the success of my exam and continued to follow up with me even after my exam, which I really appreciated. This resource is helpful for all learning styles and I would recommend it to anyone!

Tucker helped me to break down the questions and process through them, was able to explain every exam topic in detail, and helped me to boost my testing confidence in order to go into test day in a good mindset. I highly recommend him for tutoring!

I cannot recommend this program enough. Using this program allowed me to go from a 436 to a 463 on the NBCOT. Not only do they provide you with all the necessary content, but their question breakdown is what helped me succeed. Also, working with tutor Kate was a huge part to my success, she was always patient and provided me with guidance and motivation while working together. I recommend tutor Kate and PTOT to anybody who wants to pass on their first attempt!

Pass the OT has been a game changer in my preparation for the NBCOT exam. The course offers a comprehensive and well-structured curriculum that caters to various learning styles, which was a significant improvement over the other resources I have tried. The group tutoring sessions have been particularly helpful with narrowing down what to focus on and breaking down the questions to get the right answer every time. I highly recommend using Pass the OT, I wish I would have found it at the very beginning of my study prep!

Pass the OT is definitely the gold standard to use for passing the NBCOT. I decided to try it after feeling overwhelmed by lack of cohesiveness between all the other study packs and feeling like I needed more structure and guidance. This service was definitely the answer. The entire program has excellent structure with clear plans to follow that are delivered in an effective format and constant support available. The amount of support is hand tailored to your specific needs whether it’s just minimal guidance as you self navigate or maximum support with as much extra tutoring as you need to ensure your success on the exam. Stephanie was always quick to respond in the live chat and helped keep me on the right path and gave encouragement throughout the entire process. All the study modules are so comprehensive yet perfectly broken down into bite sized components to make it easy to navigate through without becoming overwhelmed and everything included is in line with the actual exam. One thing that sets Pass the OT apart from the others is that you’re not only learning the information being tested but also how to actually take the exam. It includes specific practice on building the skills to critically break down the questions in the way the NBCOT expects you to in order to pass. Your success in using Pass the OT is definitely an accurate predictor of your success on the exam if you do everything as directed. They are with you every step of the way and help you feel as confident as possible going into the exam. I ended up with a 513 on my first attempt and give all credit to Pass the OT. It is a hidden gem and I promise if there is any study tool you need, it’s this one.

Out of all the studying tools out there, Pass The OT has been the most beneficial for me. There is so much content to review for the NBCOT and it can get overwhelming. PTOT helps provide structure and breaks it all down with their modules. PTOT also accomodates different learning styles and provides ways of studying in different formats (notes on content, games, videos, practice quizzes, and more). There are live group tutoring sessions that you can join and recorded lectures from past sessions that you can view to supplement your studying. I also had a private one-on-one tutoring session where we pinpointed my weaknesses, worked on question breakdown, and boosted my confidence! I had Tutor Tucker, he was concise and very encouraging!

I ike that there were different packages to choose from (monthly or even weekly access). I also have spoken to Stephanie about studying tips and my gameplan on how to pass the exam. Pass The OT helped me figure out where I needed to start and how to stay consistent with my studying plan. Take the assessment to figure out your weaknesses, go through the modules, take the practice tests for each module, then take the final practice exam. I genuinely like how flexible and accomodating this program is. I was able to pace my studying and build momentum.

Good luck to everyone studying! You can do it!

I wish that I had not wasted time & been so stubborn the first time around. If you are someone who has a challenge with structure when there is a lot of content to review/study - Pass The OT is the resource you need! My tutor, Jessica, was also very helpful & so patient & kind. She played a big role in boosting my confidence for the exam. Thank you Jessica & Pass The OT!
