Struggling Students, Stressed Instructors
We've all been there. Your students are pouring their heart and soul into studying for the PT/PTA state licensing exam. They’ve mastered the intricacies of the curriculum, aced the NPTE, and feel confident in their abilities. But then comes the jurisprudence exam, and suddenly, everything grinds to a halt.
Traditional Resources Leave Students Drowning in a Sea of Facts
Textbooks and lectures are valuable tools, but for many students, they're simply not enough. Dense legal jargon and a lack of real-world context leave students struggling to retain information, making application during the exam a nightmare. The statistics are bleak: nationally, as many as 1 in 5 students fail the jurisprudence exam*. This translates not just to wasted study time and emotional stress, but also to a significant financial burden.
Failing the Jurisprudence Exam Can Cost Thousands*
Think about it: according to the latest data, the median salary for a physical therapist is roughly $1800 per week. Every week a graduate waits to pass the jurisprudence exam and secure their license is a week of lost income. That's a major setback, especially for recent graduates eager to begin their careers.
