I passed the NPTE on my 6th attempt
Alex is the tutoring man. He’s so detail oriented, extremely thorough, and very knowledgeable with the material. His nickname is the “Walking encyclopedia”. Any random question you have, 95% of the time, he’ll know it and can break it down to such a level that is easily digestible. The other 5%, you’ll see him looking through his library of books to get an answer. I can’t thank Alex and the PT final exam VIP course enough for the videos, material, explanation, encouragement, and direction for getting through the beast that is the NPTE. - Christian

Alex made a HUGE difference in my understanding of both the content I learned throughout my program and the skills needed to be able to PASS this exam. I jumped up OVER 100 points thanks to his help and guidance. He gave me a foundation of knowledge that I allowed me to be successful in my test taking abilities AND that I now use in the clinic on a daily basis. - Erin
Alex became my devoted and trusted tutor. He is phenomenal. He patiently and consistently took his time to make sure that I understood topics that I struggled with. He lifted my spirits when I felt overwhelmed, he was able to pinpoint my weaknesses and advised me accordingly. He analyzed my peat exams and helped me to improve all of my weaknesses. He helped me to get over the hurdles and across the finish line with an extra boost. - Carolyn
I found out about Alex Pisanello's private tutoring only a couple of weeks before the NPTE. I was burned out and frustrated after 3 months of trying to study alone. Alex was able to clearly explain material that I struggled with as well as give me test taking strategies and statistics that reduced my stress and gave me confidence when taking the NPTE. Alex is VERY well versed in the material and extremely knowledgeable about all things PTA testing and NPTE. If you are struggling with any concepts and would also like added confidence and calm approaching your NPTE I would not hesitate to schedule a session with Alex. - Gerhart
In a matter of 3 weeks and 4 tutoring sessions, Alex helped me get over my block from 539 to 552 to 648. He taught me how to study efficiently and effectively. - Tammy

A God Send
After my first failed attempt at the NPTE, I knew I needed to make a careful investment in the right support to help me pass on my second try. Given my life circumstances, I wasn’t planning on taking the exam again, so I began researching tutoring options and praying about my decision. I spoke with several tutors and third-party companies, but I quickly realized many were more focused on profit than genuinely helping me succeed. That all changed when I started speaking with Alex. Alex is everything you want in a tutor—intelligent, punctual, responsive, and focused on using FSBPT references in his teaching. If you are willing to put in the work, Alex will fill in the gaps in your knowledge and guide you across the finish line. I know, because I can now officially say that I passed the October '24 NPTE on my second attempt, thanks to the 1-on-1 tutoring sessions with Alex. As my review title suggests, Alex was truly a Godsend, and through our sessions, I connected with him on a deeper level, beyond just the exam itself. I wholeheartedly recommend Alex as an NPTE tutor. If you feel like you're struggling to close the gaps, I encourage you to invest in yourself and your future. It will be worth it. - Ricky
Alex!!!
Words cannot begin to express the appreciation I have for Alex. He started working with me after I failed 2x and was onto my third attempt. I had completely lost hope and was juggling with a lot of things at home. Rather than ignoring those struggles, he worked them into the sessions and helped me turn my struggles into my strengths. He was always very organized and had so much to offer such as practice questions and personal experience which made topics easier to retain. Even though I knew he was working with many other students, he gave me such individualized care and support and would always remember what my weaknesses were. He always had faith in me which helped me have more faith in myself. He was always honest and down to earth which made him very easy to talk to. I can’t thank him enough!! - Shevi
Hop on the Crane Train
Alex at PT Final Exam was an absolute game-changer in my NPTE journey. After missing my first attempt by 2 questions and failing my second attempt just a month after having my first daughter, I felt defeated. Alex’s personalized guidance, encouragement, and expert strategies helped me regain focus and confidence. Completing my undergrad and doctorate in less than four years while having my first daughter was no small feat. After graduation, I studied for the NPTE while working full-time on a temp license. By the time I connected with Alex, I was juggling three jobs and caring for my newborn. His support and tailored approach helped me navigate it all and finally pass on my third attempt. I can’t recommend Alex and PT Final Exam enough for anyone preparing for the NPTE. Hop on the Crane Train—it’s going places! - Chris
13% chance of passing turned to DPT!
I failed my first two attempts at the PT Board Exam. I went through countless hours studying, online courses, in person lectures. None of them truly helped me prepare for this exam. After failing the second attempt I had a 13% chance of passing in any future attempt. I started tutoring with Alex Pisanello and could not be more grateful. I truly do not believe I would have passed on my third attempt without his help.He was intense and pushed me to my limits. I left each session mentally drained but knowing that I was actively learning and getting better every week. We discussed everything including content, mental game, and general testing awareness. He was a phenomenal tutor and this was truly so worth the time and effort.
