During my studies for the NPTE I was working full time because I am married with three kids. It was difficult for me to find time to study throughout the two months of studying. I came across the podcast and I will say it was instrumental in me passing the exam. I was able to listen to and from work. The questions were equitable to the exam questions and Kyle’s thought process really helped me break down questions. In the beginning I would see a ‘juicy’ answer and select it. After listening to the podcast, his strategy to slow down and look at every answer choice every time was a big reason why I passed. Thank you for spending your free time making a free podcast for all of us!

Thank you Kyle Rice for helping me pass the NPTE on my first try ! I loved listening to Kyle’s NPTE Clinical Files podcast and watching his motivational videos. All of his content was straightforward, clinically relevant, and uplifting. I would definitely recommend him to any DPT students who are in clinicals or are looking for more resources to help them study for the NPTE.

Kyle Rice helped me achieve an 800 on the NPTE - even during COVID-19. Since I was a first year driving to my clinicals, I always listened to The NPTE Clinical Files. After listening throughout my time as a DPT student, I was able to take the teaching methods from the podcasts and apply it to my critical thinking. It truly helped along the way both on general exams and in clinical rotations. I used the podcasts and cheatsheets as an amazing way to condense material to make it easier to understand as well as enabling me to work through questions. I recommend using the podcasts and cheatsheets to help you achieve success on the NPTE. Thanks so much Kyle Rice - The PT Hustle for helping me crush the NPTE and become a licensed doctor of physical therapy!

Kyle gives you what you need! His insight, humor and cut to the chase style helped me pass! I would highly recommend that you take his course!

Kyle Rice is passionate about his students and their lives as future physical therapists. I have never met someone so invested in people's futures as him. When I spoke with him about his Mastermind Course, I was hopeless and told myself that this would be the last resort since I've used pretty much used every other resource out there. He listens to your problems (whether NPTE related or personal), and helps you sort through them to become the best person you can be. There were plenty of times I felt tired or burnt out preparing for my 4th attempt of the NTPE; but, his energy and love for us succeeding is what kept me going, feeling renewed every time. His vulnerability of his personal experience with standardized exams and his faith is what makes him so empathetic and easy to talk to. He knows exactly what to say when you need it the most, yet you haven't mentioned it to him before. I cannot recommended him enough to anyone who struggles with the NPTE. He has changed my outlook on life and how I look at myself as person and a licensed physical therapist. Trust me, if you have the opportunity to work with Kyle Rice and The PT Hustle, you will not regret it. Just prepare yourself for the doors to start opening with amazing opportunities afterwards. Thank you Kyle for absolutely everything!

Dr. Rice is an incredible coach and someone I really truly look up to. Not only did his program help me understand and apply the information but it also taught me how to remain calm and confident in myself during test day! My journey with him has changed me and I will be forever grateful! If you are a BAD TEST TAKER, have FAILED the NPTE MULTIPLE TIMES or have TEST ANXIETY.... THIS IS THE PROGRAM FOR YOU!! Thank you Dr. Rice!!! Dr. Lauren Orynawka

Without Kyle, I would not be in the position I am today; A doctor of physical therapy! He is a must when preparing for the NPTE!! Thank you Dr. Kyle Rice for everything! 💯

2019-05-02T23:12:44.000Z

I graduated more than 20 years ago, and attempted the NPTE many times before a family friend told me about Dr. Kyle Rice. Initially, I was uninterested because I thought his course would be just like the others I had taken before, but I was wrong. When I decided to give the NPTE a final try after putting my books down for six years. Kyle assured me that I can achieve success if I "trusted the process." I was very skeptical but I trusted his directives. Although my practice test scores were horrible, he continually reminded me to celebrate my small wins, and run my own race. I was amazed at his patience, and almost constant availability to answer questions or clarify anything I did not understand. I would recommend Kyle to anyone who may have lost hope in passing the NPTE, or anyone who needs guidance to be successful on the first attempt. The personal attention he gives to every student is unbelievable. His coaching program adequately prepared me for the exam.

2019-05-01T01:15:57.000Z

As a foreign trained PT, I don’t how standardized exam is conducted here In the US. I’m just so glad that I enrolled in this course. It was a wonderful learning experience.Thank you Coach K for guiding me through the process and all the test taking skills and strategies on how to get to the correct answer.All lessons learned content related and not, I will take it with me wherever I go as a clinician and as a person.This program really speaks for itself PT hustle NPTE PREP SUCCESS.Now, Crushed the NPTE and PREPare yourself to become SUCCESSful PT’s with Dr.Rice core content videos and amazing playbook strategies.

2019-02-06T23:00:30.000Z

Where do I begin? Standardized test have been the number one struggle for me throughout my life. Kyle likes to refer to it as "self destroyer" and he is 100% correct. I am really hard on myself and expect great things when failure is lagging not far behind. This man is so hyped up on success and perseverance its hard for you to be down on yourself. The minute you check into class or even listen to a podcast you know this man is a game changer, YOUR job is to believe in yourself and put in 110% to get the job done. This was a really hard thing for me to do. Kyle provided me with the content, the study materials. the TEST strategies that I have never been introduced too, the CONFIDENCE and bottom line the DRIVE to be the BEST PT I could ever be. I know more now than I did in the beginning and I overcame one of the biggest fears in my life. There are not enough words to say do not look any further, sign up now with Kyle Rice to crush the NPTE. Great things will happen with Kyle as your coach! Once again thank you Kyle for dealing with my in my ups and downs and pushing me to end! You will always hold a special place in my heart and my life! THANK YOU!

I started following Kyle back in April of 2018. I honestly did not know about his specific programs at that time but I saw his Wednesday challenge questions and mentality videos frequently when surfing Facebook. I then found out that a classmate, one year ahead of me had used Kyle for his preparation for the NPTE. So I reached out to this friend and inquired about Kyle’s program. Naturally I was skeptical because I had already paid a large sum of money for one review course that did not cut it for me. So I was back and forth in my head about, do I spend the money or not. Now let me put this in perspective I am an over analyzer, planner, and perfectionist, so in my head I had no choice to only take the NPTE once but I knew I was horrible with standardized test and need some guidance. Therefore, I bit the bullet and signed up for Kyles Prep Course and that was the best decision I made in 2018. Why? Because he help me change my approach and look at standardized test differently. He changed my game time testing strategies that I swear pulled me through on game day. He made concepts that were taught in PT school 10x’s clear and easier to understand in one 2 hour session (and the concept stuck). Kyle should be the one teaching in all PT schools, no questions asked! Even if you haven’t taken the NPTE yet but feel lost with the where, and how to start preparing for the NPTE and only want to take this test one time. PLEASE join his team and family, it will change your life. I have gain not only the ability to now practice as a licensed physical therapist but I gained a family along the way. My team dominated in January 2019!!!

2019-02-05T21:27:48.000Z

I honestly felt lost and confused after the first time I took the exam. Seeing that word “Failed” on my screen was a low point. The second time I took it I could only commit about 75% to studying and improving my score. I can honestly say if you can commit 100% to this exam Kyle will give you his all to ensure you understand the material and questions. This coaching program was everything I needed. A small group that supported each other every step of the way! An amazing coach that will motivate you academically, help you figure out a personal study schedule, and is available to answering your questions at anytime. Finally seeing that amazing word “Passed” was a relief and I’m truly grateful for this program!

2019-02-05T21:23:11.000Z

Kyle Rice shifted my mindset not only for the NPTE but for life in general. This course teaches you a lot of the underlying concepts of physical therapy that will not only help you pass the NPTE with flying colors but will also help you when it comes to treating patients in the clinic as well. He breaks down those difficult concepts that you see pop-up repeatedly time and time again. Lastly, this course teaches you how to study smarter, not harder, by prioritizing organization while keeping your motivation levels high. It is extremely structured and really works by mixing up methods of studying & live lectures.

2019-02-05T21:14:16.000Z

This course changed my life. It’s as simple as that, it didn’t matter the cost or time I put in, every second of this course was worth it! Kyle was an incredible coach from day one, and never gave up on any of us. I will forever recommend this course to anyone that ever needs help with the NPTE! Kyle will give you the power, strength and confidence to achieve your goals. I also made some lifelong friends in this course that I have already met in person or plan to meet in the future. We are a community, together, and always.

2019-02-05T20:14:13.000Z

Finding kyle and his course was the best thing i did for my NPTE prep. His motivation, energy, and knowledge during the program made any topic much easier to tackle. I would definatly recommend kyles course to anyone who struggles standardize test taking and the big question of where do I begin with NPTE prep.

2019-02-05T19:31:52.000Z

I would recommend Kyle to anyone and everyone taking the NPTE. After failing to pass the test after 2 attempts I was at a loss of what to do or change until I found his course. His Prep Success course gave me the test taking strategies and knowledge to completely dominate. I don’t think I’ve met someone as invested and compassionate as Kyle, he has an individualized approach for each person and their weaknesses and doesn’t give up until you succeed. This program really is changing lives and bringing out the best PT in everyone who uses it. Thanks again Kyle!!

2018-11-25T04:51:57.000Z

Good information! Very helpful!

2018-10-31T20:53:40.000Z

When taking the my first shot at the NPTE, I was anxious and so under prepared. My mindset was "surely I can do enough to at least pass". The day of the test and the week waiting for my results were agonizing. When I saw the red X instead of a passing check mark, I immediately started googling coaches or support groups for the NPTE. I didn't know what the next step was, but I knew I couldn't do the same thing for the next test if I wanted to pass. Enter Kyle, who I found on Google and looked up on Facebook. His overwhelming positivity hooked me, I scheduled a phone consultation, cried during that (🤷), and signed up for his course. Each week, with 2 live online video classes breaking down topics in ways I never imagined, the light at the end of the tunnel got a little bit brighter. I hit road blocks one by one, with being too scared to take a practice test, to getting stuck on shoulder pathologies, to just being TIRED. OF. STUDYING. And each time, I reached out to Kyle, and he compassionately and succinctly kicked my butt back into gear. The test taking strategies videos absolutely helped me become more methodical and purposeful in answering the questions. This led to the week before the test, taking a challenging therapy Ed practice test and blowing myself away with the score. After that, my confidence sky rocketed because honestly, before this course, I had so few positive feelings correlated with studying. This course is not a cookie cutter course. I interacted with Kyle mainly through messenger, but I know others used phone calls too. He meets you where you're at and troubleshoots academic, mental, physical, and emotional road blocks. This course also does not mean it is easy or less grueling studying the second (or third, etc) time around. It takes a lot of effort to go through, but it develops so much mental toughness that is invaluable for the world of the working clinician. I took my second attempt at the test just last week, walked in absolutely sure I was capable, and walked out absolutely confident I had crushed it. Kyle has the incredible ability to see the greatest potential in everyone, and is passionate about helping us see it in ourselves, too. I can't adequately express how grateful I am for his help. I tried to tell him, but it mostly just came out as SHOUTY CAPITAL LETTERS 😅. If you're looking for a second chance and know you need a different approach the next time, choose Kyle.

2018-10-31T17:13:03.000Z

Kyle is a fantastic teacher and one of the most positive people you will ever encounter. The positivity and the confidence that he instills throughout his course is like no other. With his attitude and passion he displays in his videos accompanied with the strong strategies it is hard to not feel like you're going to go DESTROY the NPTE. For my experience, my issue was mainly mental. I did decent on practice tests prior to my first time taking the exam, but it was a different experience being in the test center which I believe through me off my game. Kyle really does a great job with mental imagery and the mental preparation to help with the anxiety for such a big test. 11/10 would recommend! Big ups to my guy.

2018-10-31T16:57:27.000Z

Kyle is great! I started my journey with kyle when I took my very first practice test and scored in the 50's - I panicked. As soon as I found kyle I reached out and he eased my worries immediately and helped me get on a path to success. Without kyle's course I dont know where I'd be. He gave me great guidance on study habits, study topics and kept me motivated everyday. His program is useful for anyone! His course gives you relevant information for the test and I can honestly say when I was taking the exam i could look at a question and say Ha! Kyle taught me this. Thanks to kyle's help I can say I passed the NPTE on my first try!! I tend to travel a lot and his program even accommodates that because i could use his podcast and youtube videos during my travel time. Kyle is not only a teacher - he's a cheerleader and wants to see you succeed.

2018-09-25T02:38:23.000Z

Kyle is amazing! There’s not much this guy can’t do and he stuck with me through a lot of ups and downs until we finally figured out what my weakness was and how I could hone in and practice that constantly! He asks the tough questions that are thought provoking questions, but he also makes you feel 100% supported and helps you dig deeper to master subjects. You know from the get-go that Kyle has an amazing energy to keep you upbeat about the whole testing process, but that he also has your best interest at heart and no doubt wants you to pass! His pre-test pep talk might’ve been one of the best convo’s I’ve ever had with anyone just because of his passion and energy! Kyle makes you feel like part of his family with his availability and willingness to always set up a meeting to explain or talk something out. I cannot thank him enough for the confidence, energy and effort he put into helping me pass my boards! I would highly recommend Kyle to anyone looking to take the NPTE or has already taken it and needs that extra push!

2018-08-28T17:24:02.000Z

I cannot thank Kyle and the PT Hustle program enough!! I failed the NPTE the first time around and have never been so discouraged as I felt in that moment. I did some research and after talking with Kyle, decided to go with his program as my study source for round 2. I am so glad I did!! Kyle makes you feel as if you are old friends. His program is strong and covers every topic you need to know for the NPTE, but more importantly, he covers how to study based on your specific learning style. His test-taking strategies were HUGE for my success on the NPTE, and the amount of work he puts into making sure each student in the group understands what they need to is truly remarkable. I messaged Kyle multiple times throughout my 8 weeks of studying, and he always responded right away. I would recommend the PT Hustle for anyone who needs strategic and thorough advice on how to dominate the NPTE. Thanks for everything Kyle!!!

2018-08-21T00:50:27.000Z

What drew me to The PT Hustle was Dr. Rice's fire and motivation. I felt overwhelmed and didn’t know where to start with my NPTE studying. I’ve always struggled with standardized exams, and had a lot of anxiety going into my NPTE prep. Dr. Rice guided me through his evaluation process, and helped set me on the path to success. I appreciated his holistic view on preparation, and that he addresses mental and physical health. I felt like I had his genuine support, and he was always quick to answer my questions very thoroughly. His CONSTANT positivity helped me greatly. I’d also watch his videos to get a little extra hype before diving into the study grind. I’m so proud to say I passed the July 2018 with my 1st attempt! 😊 Thank you to the NPTE prep coach!

2018-08-20T15:00:30.000Z

Throughout my life, I was never the best test taker. Often times, I would overthink or overanalyze the simplest questions. Prior to my graduating from PT school, my program offered an academic PEAT exam and i failed it. I knew that In order to be successful and pass the NPTE on my first attempt, i would have to not only study hard but figure out new ways of studying/answering questions in order to get the best possible score. One day, A friend and current colleague of mine was talking to me about Kyle Rice's course and how beneficial it was. Therefore, the following day I reached out to Kyle Rice and we talked for a bit about his course and how it could help me. We developed a 7 week plan and study schedule in order to crush the NPTE, and i did just that (score 108 points higher on the NPTE than i did on the academic PEAT i took at school). Kyle was there every step of the way, he was able to answer all the questions I had and provide words of encouragement when the going got tough. His course is exceptional and can be tailored to anyone irregardless of study methods or backgrounds. His weekly NPTE clinical Files podcast were also helpful as he broke down each answer choice and gave a thorough explanation as to why the correct answer was correct. All in all, Kyle Rice's course and resources were extremely helpful and allowed me crush July NPTE; I would strongly recommend his course for anybody that is looking for guidance or extra help in order to Successfully Pass the NPTE.

2018-08-08T23:04:38.000Z

My experience with Kyle Rice & The PT Hustle was not just NPTE prep, it was life prep because Kyle is not simply just the NPTE prep coach…he is a life coach! Not only did my study habits do a 180 between May when I failed my first NPTE attempt and July when I passed the NPTE, but my mindset did a 180 as well. With the help of Kyle, I improved my NPTE score by almost 100 points, I was shocked when I saw my score report this morning! I am grateful I passed the NPTE, but in a weird way also grateful that I initially failed. My shortcoming brought me to a place where I realized I needed to step outside of my own head and ask for help and there was Kyle, lending a helping hand. From our initial phone call, I knew that I made the right decision. I was motivated, eager to improve, and ready to be molded into a WINNER. I learned study tips and I learned life lessons. In May, I was devastated and terrified of what felt like the inevitable question “will I be able to pass it in July?” Those fears were not easy to shut down, but the positivity of Kyle’s phone calls, Facebook messages, podcasts, videos, ad even just posts accumulated in my mind. They planted a seed and by the beginning of July, it sprouted. I formed a study group with two of my classmates who also studied with The PT Hustle program and the energy in the room proved that their seeds had sprouted too. By the week of the exam, we had full on flower blossomed NPTE plants growing from our heads. We studied, we power posed, and we dominated. All in all, I am SO glad that I had the opportunity to work with Kyle. In the process, I grew a friendship and am excited to collaborate with him during my future career. If you are considering working with Kyle, don’t second guess it. I promise! 😁

2018-08-06T18:25:11.000Z

The PT Hustle is an amazing program designed to help students not only pass the NPTE, but do so with confidence and determination. Kyle Rice is an amazing mentor that helps you identify your weak areas and change them to your strengths. His program provides many resources such as Challenge Wednesdays, the PT Hustle Podcast, and his Power Calls. But my favorite aspect of his program was how motivating and energetic he was with each and every class, podcast, and anytime you talked to him. I highly recommend The PT Hustle for anyone who wants to dominate the NPTE in their next attempt!

2018-08-03T22:23:08.000Z

Kyle is great! I signed up for a complimentary coaching call and he gave me tips that I could immediately use for my board preparation. He truly cares for you and it’s apparent this is his passion.

2018-08-02T17:24:31.000Z

Kyle is genuine nd energetic. If you are looking to pass the NPTE, look no more. He’s got this system well rounded that by you listening to the teachings, you are actually studying for the exam. Here you will learn to take your fears away, the number one enemy of this exam (NPTE). I re-enforced my thoughts that there are no problems in life, only opportunities.
