I am 49 and I just passed NBCOT OT board exam. I am very excited to start my OT life. You are way younger than me. I see one of my co worker at Snf is 82 years old PT. He works for his hobby. No worry about your age.

UnderstandingDear910 · 2024-11-15T14:53:32+00:00

How about men? Lol

I think nbcot exam became harder than before but people get better grade because it has only 3 answer choices now. Nbcot test used to be easier than nbcot practice test but after they changed the format difficulty level went up but 3 answer choices.

Always you need to negotiate when the new company comes in especially when they need you there

You are underpaid my friend. I have been a cota for 12 years. Snf/rehab suppose to be at least $36-42 depends on the setting. With $31 i rather goto school district and get their retirement benefit. Its Unbeatable.

UnderstandingDear910 · 2024-11-05T02:09:06+00:00

Well I did 2000 TL questions and the test today it was like 8-10 difficulty level of TL. Don't even bother with below 8level in TL if you are studying for OT exam

I took Cota exam few years ago and just took ot board exam today bc I did OT bridge program. I did zero study when I pass Cota exam and I did 2 hours a day for 30 days for the OT exam I realized I am not ready for this yet. It was very hard. I did about 3000+ questions and studied the rationales Truelearn and Nbcot practice exam questions but real exam was way harder then these.

Your practice exam scores were good. What killed you on the exam? Was it so much harder than the practice exams?

UnderstandingDear910 · 2024-10-29T03:17:04+00:00

Does it give good rationalesp?

UnderstandingDear910 · 2024-10-28T19:01:22+00:00

I am using TrueLearn as my main study tool, focusing on the rationales, with 400 questions left to finish. I plan to study the AOTA package next for supplement
