-
"In graduate school it seems we as students are expected to "figure things out on our own." Oddly enough we do still need some guidance and this course provided the necessary direction to succeed! I feel like this course should be implemented by all DPT programs."
-
"Online Advantage has made a dramatic improvement in our pass rates- we had a 100% pass rate for last year's first time test takers."

"We love Scorebuilders' exam questions and find that they provide our students with the most realistic pre-exam experience possible. The explanations of each correct and incorrect answer allows students to not only assess their current decision making, but to identify their tendencies and make changes to improve exam performance. Keep up the great work!"
-
"Our students have never used a required resource as much as they have used Basecamp. Thanks for creating such an informative and creative study resource."

-
"Our school required that we purchase the Scorebuilders' review book which I was originally upset about since I had previously bought a book by another company. After using the book, I understand why your book was required. The Scorebuilders' book is superior in every way."
-
"Our last two classes of graduates have used the annual version of Basecamp with great success. Our plan is to have students purchase the program in their very first semester on campus and then continue to use Basecamp throughout their entire academic experience."

"Content Master definitely hits the highlights and then some. It was pretty cool to be taking my exam and thinking, "ok, that information was on a green card..." and know I had the information down. First time pass!"

"I was going to say that I wished there was a table of contents or section by section list of topics, then I found the index in the back of my cards. Yes, there is an index! (only took me a week to notice it). That works! Thanks!"

-
"I re-write most of my class notes using colored pens to help me remember certain things so the color-coded section of the flashcards were GREAT! Part of me wants to go back to some of my old notes and use the same colors just to reinforce the information."

-
"Your review book and Basecamp have been an incredible 1-2 combination. I just received news that I crushed the exam! I am so happy and believe your products helped me achieve this magical moment. Thank you!"

"I have bought a lot of required books during my physical therapy education. I am happy to tell you that my most valuable and most utilized resource was your review book. I used this tremendous resource during my clinicals and of course when studying for the exam."
-
"It was not until I began the ACE program that I realized how little I knew about the NPTE-PT. After completing this program, I can honestly say I feel more informed, prepared, and confident. With a task as large as the NPTE-PT it is essential to address all areas of preparation and ACE has provided the foundation for success on the NPTE-PT."

"The Scorebuilders' questions were similar to my actual exam and provided me with a better sense of my exam readiness. In addition, the explanations offered for the questions were incredibly detailed which helped me to understand "Why" certain answers were better than others. The video explanations with Dr. Giles have helped me to improve my decision making."
-
"Thank you for creating this incredible learning tool! I originally purchased 30 days of access but have enjoyed it so much I have purchased two separate extensions. The amount of material and the way the information is presented makes me forget I am studying. Is it possible that I am addicted to Basecamp?"
-
"Our students have always hosted a Scorebuilders' course on campus, but changes in the academic calendar made this impossible this year. We reluctantly moved to the online format and the feedback I have gathered has been nothing short of fantastic. I greatly appreciate Scorebuilders adding the online option and offering class pricing."
-
"I feel that taking a large number of sample exams was a huge part of why I passed the exam. The explanations were amazingly detailed and served as an additional academic review."

"Allowing the students to experience a formalized testing experience prior to the actual test has been very beneficial. We formally reserve the computer classroom and build in as much formality as possible to the testing experience. Thanks for offering such a great product!"
-
"Our students have always hosted a Scorebuilders' course on campus, but changes in the academic calendar made this nearly impossible this year. We reluctantly moved to the online format and the feedback I have gathered has been nothing short of fantastic. I greatly appreciate Scorebuilders offering a variety of course delivery models!"
-
"Not only is the Mountain and Trail theme fantastic, but I love the ability to focus on specific content in isolation. I have never seen so many sample questions in one place. I have several Scorebuilders products and am beyond a happy customer!"
-
"I took my flashcards with me on my latest clinical and felt like the kid with the newest toy. Some of the therapists at my site actually seemed a little jealous that they didn't have such a good tool available when they were studying."
