See what other prepathon participants have to say!

Participating in the Prepathon was a game changer for my NPTE prep. It helped me identify my weak areas, improve my test taking speed, and build confidence under pressure. The focused review and real exam-style questions made a huge difference and I truly believe it played a key role in helping me pass the NPTE on my first try.

The TrueLearn preparation made me feel so much more confident during my exam preparation. I was able to have a simulated test experience that allowed me to get used to the styles of questions used during the actual exam. The explanations provided for each answer, both correct and incorrect, allowed me to understand what topics I had mastered and what I still need to work on.

Participating in the prepathon was a quick way to get an idea of what my focus should be as I study moving forward. The simulated Praxis experience is good exposure to prepare for what the exam will really be like, particularly the timed element. The score report I given at the end of the test really helped me tailor my study approach.
