NBCE Physiotherapy Exam Questions Practice Test

Description

The National Board of Chiropractic Examiners Physiotherapy Exam (NBCE PT) is a professional licensure examination for physical therapists in the United States. The exam is designed to assess the knowledge, skills, and abilities required to practice as a physical therapist in the country. It is administered by the National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NBCE) and is one of the requirements for obtaining licensure in most states.

The National Board of Chiropractic Examiners (NBCE) is a non-profit national and international testing organization for the chiropractic profession that develops, administers, analyzes, scores, and reports results from various examinations. Examinations are offered to students at chiropractic colleges accredited by the Council on Chiropractic Education (CCE). The NBCE maintains its headquarters in Greeley, Colorado. The organization was established in 1963 to standardize chiropractic testing requirements as opposed to each state having its own board exam. Since 1963, all but one of states have adopted the passage of Parts I-IV; however, each state has its own licensing requirements in addition to the NBCE exams.
