Today Briana sits down with Vanessa Jaimes, PTA to discuss her journey towards finally being able to pass the NPTE on her 4th attempt! Vanessa talks about what she finally did to pass and how she was able to never give up! Here's a little about Vanessa!




"When I first started college I wasn’t sure what career I wanted to go into. I was taking my general prerequisites while still thinking about what career to major into. The summer of 2017 I decided to take a cna course when I finished I said to myself you know what I’m going into nursing school. Looked into it I had the grades then a few months later I started working as cna and realized there was much more than only nursing! One day I was working with a therapist and said to me “you would be a great PTA “ asked me if I was enrolled in a program I said no not yet but I’m looking into nursing I’ll never forget her saying check out physical therapy you’re very motivating and physically active. I looked into it and liked the idea of helping others with exercise! So then I started going into facilities for observation hours. Just by completing observation hours I found myself enjoying it! So I decided to apply at Morton College I was accepted, started the program 2019 the program was manageable! After finishing school I decided to take boards felt overly confident because I didn’t struggle with test taking in school and then the first attempt came around I failed didn’t study really or take practice exams I was very upset! The second attempt came around I failed again I decided to read the book but I found myself not having a study plan! The third time came around I decided to read the book and look into videos to understand better took about 11 practice exams still failed! I felt like the third time around I wasn’t giving myself any breaks I was burning myself out! The fourth attempt comes around and said to myself I need to make a change I started reflecting on everything I did in the past my coworkers said to me look into prepping courses and one of the girls I graduated with had mention about Bri program I was very frustrated and said at this point if I need to get every resource to pass I will! Let me just say the best investment I ever made was to get Bri program it helped me get organized and know how to study for the exam! I didn’t take 11 practice exams this time around I took 7! I found myself taking breaks not overly doing it with my studying and passing every practice exam! Bri made sure I was on track like I said again best investment ever because I passed on my fourth attempt! I can’t thank her enough for helping me out because I can officially called myself a licensed PTA💕"
