I plan to use Pass the OT with all future cohorts. Our graduates loved their recorded lectures, study charts and quizzes in the modules. Students were easily able to assess their current knowledge, skills and track their studying progress. In essence, their program was effective in their application of clinical reasoning skills.

Thanks to Pass the OT’s “Gift a Student Program”, I just found out that one of our top students, who surprisingly had great difficulty passing after using all the other study preps, finally passed on her fifth try. She had nothing but great things to say about this program, and now I am a believer too.

We’ve had over 30% of our class pass within 1 month of graduation. I appreciate your generosity and all your efforts to help our students.

OTA Program Director

I absolutely want to get the plan again this upcoming summer. The previous cohort of students had only positive things to say about the Pass the OT Exam Prep Study Course. The modules are highly effective and interactive, and the student tracking feature was very beneficial in ensuring students were staying on track within the modules. I honestly feel like you truly care about the success of my students and you have been extremely helpful and caring to me.

Your program is completely unique in its approach, and I am now convinced that it made all the difference in helping my former students pass the NBCOT® exam, who had not previously been successful after using other study preparation programs. I plan on using it for all my future cohorts.

Pass the OT has become our go-to NBCOT® exam prep course for our OTA students. The folks at Pass the OT haveconsistently provided quality, value, and ease-of-use for me as a program director and, more importantly, for our students. Their asynchronous, self-paced learning virtual platform fits perfectly into the busy schedules of our students. The program director portal allows me to monitor student progress. The learning modules, assessments and options for tutoring allows students to utilize resources that meet their individualized learning needs and preferences. And the 9-month subscription enables me to enroll students during their final semester when we can support their initial engagement, and allows continued access long after graduation until their take the NBCOT® exam.

I like that Pass the OT allows me to assign board preparation to students as they are learning the material. I also like that there are questions that can be given on just the material or over a larger area. I also like that we can give the students this program over a year so that they feel like they have a longer time to study. We evaluate the board preparation program based upon student pass rates, student feedback, and practice tests we give the students.

The OTA program incorporated PassTheOT (PTOT) as a study tool for our capstone course that focuses on studying for the NBCOT exam a few years ago. I’m excited to report that not only did we increase our overall pass rate by 13%, but our first-time test takers passage rate has also increased by more than 40%! Students save a ton of time and money by using PTOT. Highly recommended!

The Lackawanna College OTA students participated in 1-day intensive course with a Pass the OT instructor (Tutor Jessica). The feedback from the students was very positive.

We found Jessica to be professional, kind and patient with our students. I really liked the use of Google docs and mini quizzes that kept the students engaged for the entire period.

The feedback I received from the students was awesome! They enjoyed the small group environment and Tutor Jessica did a fantastic job guiding them. My students were very shy in the beginning but towards the middle and end, they were engaging so well. I give credit to Tutor Jessica for her patience and her ability to get the students engaged. I think the students had a wonderful experience. I know for sure a student who attended, passed her test. So, YAY! A couple of the students are planning to take it this month and early next month. So, I am hoping we receive good news soon. We at Panola College appreciate you all for taking the time to support our students.

Why choose Pass the OT
We’re frustrated seeing students struggle to pass the NBCOT® exam due to a lack of proper guidance and study tools which include over. Failing the exam can cost over $10,000 per attempt, including $1,100 in testing fees, two months of lost salary (4-6k), and additional study time. This doesn’t even cover the emotional toll, self-doubt, and decreased confidence that can lead to worse test scores if students don’t receive the proper help.
Therefore, we have built a highly effective, efficient, and easy-to-use system that will give you the best opportunity to pass on your first attempt after using our program. Say goodbye to overwhelming study material, the confusion of complex topics like hands and splints, and the uncertainty of when to take your exam. No more disappointing test scores when you’ve done better on practice tests.
