It’s like dream come true!! and to reach this success the first and for most important decision I took was to join “The Final Frontier”. Really very thankful to Dr. Singh. Sir, you are awesome!
My journey started in 2010-11 I gave my first 3 attempts and I couldn’t make it, then I almost gave up. And one day on Facebook I saw everyone’s posts on “The Final Frontier” about their result in November 2017 and then talkedto Dr. Singh and I told him that since last 6 years I am not in touch with physical therapy and I feel like I am almost blank, and He said don’t worry we will make it happen , you can do it and our team will guide you with everything ,I felt so energetic after talking to Dr. Singh and finally I joined in November-2017 and I took my exam in April-2018 but I didn’t passed, I got 582 score. Then thought to take break due to kid’s summer vacation. But when I talked to Dr. Singh and he said, "Go for July and I am sure you will make it, as you are so close to passing score". And my family also wanted me try in July and my mother made decision in 2 days and came all the way from India to take care of kids and then I started studying and Finally the result day came, but my result was withheld So I was tensed, And finally, I saw the magical word PASSED on my screen on Thursday night and my score is 708. And my kids were happier than me because “Now mom will not study and spend time with us”. Really this is big accomplishment of my life and I don’t think I would have done without “The Final Frontier” team, my special thanks to Dr. Singh and his team member Rekha and Niraj for being 911 for us. And Akanksha for helping on live chat during class time. And my friend Mitsu for being my study partner. You are awesome. You will make this time. And finally, big thanks to my Mom, my Husband and my lovely kids for supporting me to achieve this big milestone and my Dad, my in-laws for praying for me.
Only one tip- never ever miss live “The Final Frontier” class and remember every word from the class and you will be top of this mountain.
It has been a hard but a successful journey! I improved my score more than 100 points after I joined the NPTE Final Frontier. Even though I got a 598 on my previous attempt, professor Bhupinder Singh always had the most inspiring words to help me work harder and apply my clinical skills in every concept I’ve learned. I wish I had professors in my PT school with such a commitment, passion,caring,knowledge, and dedication. Thank you Bhupinder Singh , you have inspired me to achieve at a level higher than I thought possible. Thank you to my classmates for their support and positive attitude!!!!
Xiomara Diaz C, my study partner! Without you I wouldn’t have found the NPTE Final Frontier. Thank you for all your help and for believing in me! Now that we have been through hard moments , I believe is time to meet in person ????
Many blessings for our new adventure as Physical Therapists in the USA!!
What seemed almost impossible happened Tuesday night. And who made it possible? Dr. Bhupinder Singh ... and of course, along with his outstanding and dedicated NPTE- The Final Frontier team! April 2018 was my third NPTE attempt and so I had no clue what else to do in order to pass. I had already taken a couple review courses for the previous attempts, studied the main review books, got to exercise and eat better, and I still wasn’t able to pass.
I was basically on one of the lowest points of my life and career. Luckily, I reached out to one of my best friends to ask for help and he put me in contact with Dr. Singh. After explaining my situation to him, I was blown away by the fact that he is a person who TRULY cares and wants you to pass the NPTE. He takes the time to help each one of his students based on their needs, strengths, and weaknesses. On top of that, his confidence level and positivism are something I’ve never experienced before and it’s extremely contagious! SO! DPT Students-You will never regret taking this course. Foreign PTs- this course is a MUST if you want to become licensed in the U.S.A.
Thank you, NPTE Final Frontier team for all the work, patience, guidance, optimism, and commitment you provided me with during these 11 weeks!! You’re definitely the best!
Finally its done done done.....!! Licensed PT for New York State..... Thank you Bhupinder Singh and NPTE Final Frontier team you are just amazing.... a special thank you for the motivation, support and encouragement throughout this process (sometimes that is all we need. Sir you are the best... you make studying concepts so easy.
I wanted to thank Bhupinder Singh and the rest of the NPTE Final Frontier team for giving me all the right tools that I needed to pass this exam. Honestly never considered myself a good test taker but after the classes, readings from timetable, pictures and discussions in whatsapp group I felt prepared for the exam. You guys are changing the game for NPTE prep and I advise anyone to choose to go through the program if you want to pass on the 1st try like myself. Dr. Singh and his team are the Gurus of passing the NPTE, and I am very thankful to have chosen NPTE- The Final Frontier
My journey with NPTE began with a dream. A dream where I saw only one goal, one priority. The goal was to pass my NPTE in one single attempt. This goal was strongly supported by Dr. Singh and his team- NPTE Final Frontiers. As I continued to work with this goal, a major hurdle faced by me was failing the retired PEAT. These words by Dr. Singh rang in my head through the final days leading to NPTE ‘there are people who fail the retired PEAT and yet pass NPTE, they’re few but they’re there’. I pushed myself, tested new limits, explored this warrior side where every awake moment was spent working towards this goal, receiving constant motivation. As part of the July batch, the motivation, positivity, and helpfulness were remarkable and I sincerely hope that each person does well, whether it’s as PTs right now, or all the future PTs to come. This is achievable when you lose sight, lack confidence or are shaken with your result, ask yourself ‘how bad do you want this?’ and remind yourself of your goal every single day.
Here’s a take-home message for those on their journey to passing the NPTE:
1. Understand the test, adapt to study in a way that meets the needs of the test.
2. Never, never, ever underestimate the test. If it were easy, it wouldn’t be esteemed. (Know that somebody out there is getting paid just to make the questions ‘look’ complicated and to scare students). Also understand that this is important because as PTs, we will face challenges every day and this prepares us for that.
3. Study like your life depends on it (because unless you make yourself believe that, you won’t take this as seriously).
4. Believe in yourself, even when the odds are against you.
5. Join NPTE Final Frontier because they make steps 1 through 4 easier for you and enable you to be 100% prepared for the test- both academically and mentally.
Me passing the NPTE Exam is not a miracle but the result of my immense hard work along with the motivation and support from a lot of people.
Firstly, I would like to thank my parents and my brother Nipul Vaswani for believing in me and being there for me no matter how far they are. This wouldn’t have been possible without you guys.
Next, I would like to thank the whole team of “NPTE Final Frontier”. You guys rock!!
Bhupinder Singh Sir thanks for giving me the proper guidance, support, motivation and helping me in restoring my confidence. It wouldn’t have been possible without the 11-week program you offer which includes:
1. The live lectures (especially the ones on PNF, spine mobs, and gait),
2. Tons of practice questions covering all the required topics,
3. The exclusive Final Frontier Exam consisting of 250 questions (the level of which was very similar to NPTE),
4. The amazing and very helpful Final Frontier Mobile App which made it easy to access the study material whenever and wherever I wanted,
5. The Final Frontier WhatsApp group which not only helped us to share information and gain knowledge but also helped us in solving the millions of queries that we had on the spot. The members of this group are active 24*7. Special thanks to Niraj Tankaria, Chhaya Patel, and Mona Minhaj for posting innumerable tricky questions in the group that made us use our brains and apply the concepts. Also, thanks a lot Gowre Anurekha Arunachalam for sharing the tons of pictures which not only made studies easy but also interesting and Akanksha Sharma for solving all our queries too.
Special shout out to my amazing licensed study partner, Niraj Tankaria, who helped me a lot in this journey full of hurdles. He motivated me to the core and made sure that I understand the concepts clearly and completely. He kept on revising with me each and every topic repeatedly without complaining. His random rapid-fire sessions were the best. His motivational talks were the cherry on the cake which always uplifted my mood whenever I doubted myself and felt low. The group discussions lead by him were not only comfortable but also fun to attend. The amazing useful strategies taught by him like the process of elimination, finding key words and eliminating distractors helped me to solve the questions more efficiently and choose the correct option. he is a very hard working person who is available 24*7. Even if he is at work he never fails to help us. After a busy day at work, his evenings were spent in teaching and discussing our doubts on skype with a cup of chai in his hand. (Sorry, Niraj Couldn’t resist myself from saying this..LOL! He used to sing motivational songs and send it to us to keep us positive, focused and motivated (P.S warning to all the professional singers out there Niraj se bachke rehna). He took an 11 hrs discussion session..which Oh my god was amazing!! He almost revised and covered the whole TEd including important topics from Sullivan and Kisner. This discussion session made me more confident. He has inspired us in each and every way he could. Thank you so much Niraj for all your efforts!
A Very Special thanks to my Awwsome Roomate Sonal Patel for being the elder sister I never had. She not only took care of me by making it sure that I eat and sleep well but also kept me positive and motivated.Also thanks a lot to Navaz Tata for staying by my side and for ignoring my stupid mood swings.
Once again thank you “NPTE Final Frontier” team. I would recommend this class to each and every one out there as I was able to achieve my dreams because of them and I’m sure so will you.
Lastly, for people who didn't pass this time, do not give up. The wait is always fruitful. You always learn something from your mistakes and failure. Stay Positive and don’t let this failure affect you. Remember failure is just a delay, not a defeat. I’m certain that soon there will be a day when you will share your success stories too.
Passed. Just want to thank the NPTE Final Frontier crew. I was a little worried as I needed to solidify some of the core concepts. I took a total of 10 timed practice exams and some of them I took twice. In total I think I practiced over 3000 questions. For those of you that have to do a retake, hang in there, let the concepts sink in and after some time you will realize there are not too many ways a concept can be asked. If you have to cover the NPTE Final Frontier material twice (watch videos twice) then do it. Thank you Dr. Bhupinder Singh!
Here is my Story --
I read better from hard copies of textbooks and needed an updated version of Kisner. So I posted on Facebook if someone is willing to sell one! I got a message from Dr Bhupinder Singh (a Professor from California State) saying he will send a free copy. That was in early 2017, and I am now a licensed physical therapist in July, 2018. I got the book in mail, continued studying but for some reason I joined a different coaching program. The fear of not been able to pass NPTE is common among foreign trained therapists, and taking coaching classes is normal but I didn’t pass my first NPTE. I was looking for inspiration and read Niraj Tankaria post that he passed on his last attempt and how Dr. Bhupinder Singh helps everyone one on one. I contacted Sir and he never even talked about his Kisner. He just said I have followed your work as a PT in India, and State of California needs PTs like you to serve our community. That was it.
I joined NPTE- The Final Frontier classes, my confidence starting coming back. I started enjoying learning in classes. Final Frontier classes allow you to turn on your video and audio during classes, so I started asking questions. Some of the hardest concepts were explained in simplest manners (Gait, PNF, Spinal mobs, Cardiac Rehab). I had some wrong concepts on key topics and every time I asked Dr. Singh, he would just smile, give me the correct answer and say don’t believe it is correct because I am saying it, read it from this book, this page number and this table. Probably the most intelligent person I have ever interacted in my life!
I could not take it in April 2018 because of some miscommunication/delay with my State board application. I wanted to stay charged and joined Niraj Tankaria as my licensed study partner. He mimicked the NPTE- The Final Frontier philosophy- Hard work, dedication and humbleness. Niraj was great help and kept revising with me again and again and again. Long discussions, grilling sessions, random rapid fire,how to read questions carefully and pick up the words which leads to the right answer,motivational talks, fun during discussions (just to make the surrounding light) prepared me more for this exam. He was always a msg/call away. He was confident more than me that im going to clear the exam !!!
I made few very good friends during this journey Niraj Tankaria and Mona Minhaj (my anytime call friend for anything and everything)
My Husband Gyanendra Kumar Gautam who never ever had a doubt even for a single moment on my ability to crack this exam. He has been the biggest support during this journey. He would always say-- I get scared seeing you studying so hard with focus attention ????????. He kept motivating me and kept a record of what Im studying (as if he knew what the Neonatal reflexes are ????) and how much Im scoring in test exams.
He gave up his "Ergonomic Study Table" for 6 MONTHS--- one of his biggest sacrifice ????????
Thanks to my friends and Family who believed in me. (actually they kept on asking when im giving exam & why im delaying it,no one knew until my result came.
The whole group was great- Akanksha Sharma (AKS) in live class, Gowre Anurekha Arunachalam(Reka) on whatsapp, Mona Minhaj with the questions. By July I was ready and excited for the exam, took the exam and passed with flying colors. To all the people struggling to pass the exam, I would highly recommend taking the NPTE Final Frontier classes. Don’t feel bad if you are a repeat offender or getting back to studies after a decade- As Dr. Singh always says Pass with Pride! And Sir, I am your new licensed PT ready to serve people of California and will return the Kisner when I meet you in person !!
Once again Thanks a lot to Dr. Bhupinder Singh Sir and NPTE- The Final Frontier . It would have not been possible without you all !!!
Hi everyone! I am a DPT student (or was) until I received tremendous help from this course! NPTE is no joke and if it were easy, everyone would do it! If you’re ever feeling down just remember YOU CAN and YOU WILL do it! If anyone has any questions about how to be successful and why I believe NPTE- THE FINAL FRONTIER and Dr. Bhupinder Singh are the best two resources to put you on track to pass go ahead and message me!!
Still unreal!! It took me 24 hours to believe this. I am beyond happy at this point. It's a long journey so far and to all those who are reading this and haven't made it this time I know how you feel to witness everyone around you parting and the only thing you can think of is " Why not me?"
I would like to quote one phrase that made me fight through this, “Success is not final, Failure is not fatal. It is the courage to continue that counts."Having said that, this wouldn't be possible without the guidance of Bhupinder Sir, Ravneet, Niraj, Gowre. Thank you to you all.
Special thanks to Arpit Krishna, Krisha, Siddharth, Manpreet, You guys have been my pillars throughout.
Recipe to Success: Believe in yourself, Never lose hope, Make your basics strong.
P.S.- Please feel free to reach out to me if you need any guidance or motivation. Always happy to help
