Start testHow these NPTE practice tests match the real exam
The real National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE) — PT has 225 questions and a 300-minute time limit. Question types: Four-option multiple choice with one correct answer: 180 scored and 45 unscored pretest items. Most are stand-alone questions, some with a graphic or video. Up to 40 are scenario-based questions that share a clinical scenario (2–5 independent questions each, at the end of a section). Each practice test here uses the same question formats, so you get used to how NPTE questions are asked before test day.
The tests draw on every NPTE content area, weighted like the official outline:
- Cardiovascular & Pulmonary Systems (about 14% of the exam)
- Musculoskeletal System (about 27% of the exam)
- Neuromuscular & Nervous Systems (about 24% of the exam)
- Integumentary System (about 5% of the exam)
- Metabolic & Endocrine Systems (about 3% of the exam)
- Gastrointestinal System (about 3% of the exam)
- Genitourinary System (about 2% of the exam)
- Lymphatic System (about 3% of the exam)
- System Interactions (about 5% of the exam)
- Equipment, Devices, & Technologies (about 3% of the exam)
- Therapeutic Modalities (about 3% of the exam)
- Safety & Protection (about 3% of the exam)
- Professional Responsibilities (about 3% of the exam)
- Research & Evidence-Based Practice (about 2% of the exam)
Use tutor mode to see the explanation after each answer, or timed mode to practise at real exam pace. Every answer comes with an explanation of why it is right and why the other options are wrong.
