Tell your students to prepare for the computerized NBCOT OTR exam with the book that comes with a money-back guarantee that they will pass the test Over 1,000 review questions in five practice examinations help them to identify areas of weakness and improve their test taking performance. The questions familiarize them with the format of the questions in the actual examination. "The key to passing the test is not only knowledge, but practicing taking multiple-choice questions, and these questions most closely match the ones on the exam. I think that this is the best exam review guide on the market." -- Paula Kramer, PhD, OTR/L, FAOTA, University of the Sciences in Philadelphia "The greatest strength of these review questions is that there are so many questions rich in diverse material and that the questions are so similar to the questions on the actual exam. Additionally, the explanations help in correcting the reader if he/she is thinking on the wrong track. As a former student, I would have felt far more comfortable taking the test after having finished reviewing all these questions." -- Amy Perez, OTR/L, Graduate from Xavier University
I thought this book was fantastic. I also bought the review study guide from the NBCOT website. I have a MAC computer and the CD that came with that book was not compatible with my computer. So I purchased this book so that I could practice taking the test by hand. I did not use the CD that came with this book either. The book was great! I first read & studied the book from the NBCOT website and then I moved to using this book to test my knowledge. When I took the real exam I felt that this book had really prepared me b/c the questions asked were similar in content and syntax. Someone said in a previous review that the 4th exam in this book had pulled questions from tests 1-3. That's true but it was probably less than 5 questions and in a 200 question exam I don't think skews the results enough to matter. Highly recommend!
Very helpful guide!

This is a very good book to use to study for the exam! I used this to study for the NBCOT exam and found it very helpful. The questions were similar to those used on the actual exam, and the answer sections were full of valuable information. Not only did you get explanation of the right answer to each question, but the book also gave you information on the other answers as well. There is also a really good mix of types of questions - from intervention, evaluation, to program development and management type questions. Very comprehensive, and I felt it really prepared me for the real exam.

This book is GREAT!!! The book is NOT cumbersome at all. In fact, the CD uses the SAME questions as the book. Each question that you answer is like 4 lessons. This book thoroughly explains why the answer is right, or wrong. Definitely effective in learning and retaining material. Highly recommend!!
A great study guide

This book was so helpful while preparing for my exam. The author explains why an answer is correct and why the other choices are wrong. I found that very beneficial.
Outstanding practice guide

This book gives a comprehensive review with rationals for all questions. It is extremely helpful to have a disk and practice on the computer, since OTR exams are now taken on the computer. I have a better understanding of how to interpret test questions.It's a must have book!
