| Description |
This study examined the effectiveness of the use of a test preparatory course to increase the first time passage rate on the National Board Certification for Occupational Therapist (NBCOT) examination. Means of the pre- and post-Occupational Therapy Knowledge Exam (OTKE) scores, as well as the change between pre- and post- intervention were calculated. The pre-OTKE mean score was 50.85, in comparison to, the post-OTKE mean score of 56.00 with a mean change in OTKE score of 5.15. The study results support the use of a mock examination in conjunction with other test preparatory techniques. Results of this study can serve as a baseline for the structured use of educational techniques to measure student improvement on first time passage rates for the NBCOT examination.
