Welcome to Your Ultimate RouteMap

to Pass the NPTE®



About this Program

This is your ultimate ascent - the LAST TIME you take the National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE). Our comprehensive program is precisely designed to teach you exactly how to successfully conquer the NPTE. 


Whether you're here for the first try or you've been through multiple test experiences to no avail, what you need to know straight away is that there is HOPE! 


This test is 100% learnable and completely passable! 


You’re most likely already doing a lot right. We simply need to hone your skills a little tighter using a different approach than you might be used to. You absolutely need a strategy for each question, but when you also know how to simplify information and break down questions, you will find that you can unlock the key to success.


Take a journey with us over the next 12 weeks. 


The Summit Program contains 12 Modules (one for each week, though you can always adjust your timeline to move through the program faster or slower). As you progress through each Module you will encounter topic-specific lesson blogs that are supported by fillable assignments (with answer keys!) and video webinars


To become successful on the test, you truly, truly need only basic information. That's really what the test is after. Most likely you already have a fantastic foundation in these basics. We can always dust off some cobwebs and bring clarity to these concepts. You will receive these fundamental basics repetitively throughout the program - at least three times over - so that you don't even have to think by the time you need them in order to work through a question.

Once you comfortably review and establish these basic underlying principles, you will find that you no longer have to rely on memorizing a plethora of information! Instead, you will shift to relying on the skill of thinking through every test question. 


And therein lies the subtle, yet critical, difference in your test preparation. 


In the words of a previous NPTE Test Conqueror, “The test doesn’t test you on what you know or don’t know. It’s about knowing how to be successful with strategies while taking the exam.”


That means that even when you forget something, even when you encounter an unknown question, and even when you're doubting yourself, you can use strategy to still find a way to to work through that question! You don't have to throw it away. And you don't have to guess. You will have the ability to break it down and work through it.


Twelve modules in the Summit Program takes you on a journey. This journey can be thought of in three phases. While these phases meld fluidly into a continuum, they do build on each other.
For a quick overview:
  • Phase 1 is dedicated to strategy.
  • Phase 2 is where the major practice and application occurs.
  • Phase 3 is tying up any loose ends and mentally preparing for the real test.

Once you hone the strategy and acquire expertise in the basics, you'll have passed through Phase 1. This occurs throughout the first four Modules.

In Phase 2, we’ll turn up the heat on practicing your test-taking skills. You will have already begun using the practice questions and question-breakdown videos to start applying the strategy. However the turning point in Module 6 brings us to your first full-length practice examination (PEAT). This is where you will directly apply the strategy and skills you’ve been practicing. You begin to see what the real test can be like when you have strategy working for you.
 
This is where most people begin to see that significant increase in score. It is not uncommon for students to increase anywhere from 30-50 points or more on this first dry run. It's nice to be able to put objective progress to all the work you put in throughout Phases 1 and 2. Seeing that increase also boosts confidence and decreases anxiety.


Here's just a few examples from previous NPTE conquerors (and their real test results):
I was able to improve my MSK scores by as much as 100 points. Raven
I increased my overall score by 100 points. Erin
I went from a 543 to a 652. Sydney

*P.S. Read their specific stories here on Google Reviews.


In Phase 3, the rest of the Modules are devoted to practice, practice, practice. As you grow in applying your test-taking strategy and skills, you’ll find that the process becomes easier. Your skill level will continue to increase, you'll find that questions take you less time to work through. You'll feel a shift in getting those two answer choices down to one final answer. By the time you reach your second full-length examination (PEAT), you will be ready to tackle it with flying colors! Then all you have to do from that point is do it once more on the real test 😎.

The last critically helpful piece for your NPTE journey is camaraderie. You have the option to participate in the NPTE Summiters Community (built into the program). Meet friends, study partners, and keep yourself in check by partnering for accountability. We want you to feel completely supported throughout the entire program.

This is where you find the key strength of the Summit Program - in the customization of your NPTE journey. The personalized individual mentoring sessions with Dr. Jace are the heart of the Summit Program's success. Combined with weekly virtual office hours, this unparalleled support empowers you to overcome every obstacle and excel on the NPTE.

You aren’t alone on this journey! 
 
Now don’t forget the fact that this is a JOURNEY! That is exactly why we suggest having 8-12 weeks to move through the program. And why you'll find that we consistently remind you to be patient with yourself. It's a growing process, but when you commit to diligently working through each Module and repetitively practicing your assignments and questions, you’ll very soon unlock the key to successfully conquering the NPTE.

It's time to get your journey started.

The Test Conquerors


Dr. Sydney Babineaux,

PT, DPT

2nd Attempt


To say Elevate Strategies is worth the investment is an understatement. I am an average DPT student with a clinical mind and after my 1st attempt at the NPTE I felt completely overwhelmed with the amount of knowledge I felt I needed to pass the exam. I was referred to Jace through other DPT students that failed the first attempt and I could not be more grateful. Jace is not only an amazing tutor she is truly a kind person that will go above and beyond to make sure you have what you need during this grueling process. My first attempt I used Final Frontier independent study course and failed with a 543. The second attempt I changed my study habits completely, met with Jace weekly, and focused on using the PEATs as a guide this ultimately led to a passing score of 652. Jace is worth the small investment and I will forever consider her a fellow PT friend.





Dr. Enrico Sanchez, PT, DPT

3rd Attempt

This program was excellent for me and what I needed from an NPTE preparation course. She really took out the time to focus on my weaknesses, both in terms of content knowledge and test taking strategy, and instill the confidence I needed to pass this exam. I have taken different preparation courses that were over-populated with too much going on, so having the one-on-one help from her made things more clear for me and my preferred learning style. She is an extremely intelligent PT and instructor, whose content reviewing strategies were unlike anything I've experienced from other NPTE preparation guides and resources. She has a great way of making both easier and more difficult topics stick by using very organized and sensible methods, not through straight memorization but by "using our PT brains."


Dr. Charlie Shauf, PT, DPT

7th Attempt

Where do I begin?! My experience working with Jace the last couple of months has been INVALUABLE! She was such a great tutor, so easy to work with, knowledgeable, and was really great at teaching test strategies. I had had trouble passing the NPTE, used a couple of other programs, but the one-on-one I had with Jace was just what I needed. It was nice to have the immediate feedback and have her listen to me think out loud to help me fill in any gaps in knowledge or provide a different perspective on how to think about the question. We practiced test strategy so much that by the time I got to the NPTE, I felt prepared to tackle the questions, more so than any of my other attempts. I left the testing center feeling content that I did well, and I did, because I finally passed! Not only did we work on questions and content, but Jace was awesome at diffusing my fear and anxieties about the test. She really gave me my confidence back. I cannot thank her enough! I really wish I had found her sooner.
