What is the total number of questions on the NPTE?

The total number of questions on the National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE) is indeed 250. This comprises 200 scored questions and 50 non-scored pretest questions used to evaluate future test items. The inclusion of these pretest questions means that while they contribute to the overall experience of the exam, they do not affect the candidate's score. Understanding the structure of the NPTE helps candidates manage their time effectively during the exam and gives insight into the comprehensive nature of the assessment, which is designed to evaluate a wide range of knowledge and skills essential for physical therapy practice.
