When studying for the NBCOT I listened to all the podcasts (some more than once) and heavily used the free handouts. The information is presented in a way that makes sense to me and was easier to understand than other resources. Happy to say I passed the NBCOT on my first attempt!⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This has been such a life saver. I was sooo worried about my studying habits (which include a lot of procrastination, passive reading, 500 different resources/videos, and very nonhelpful mnemonics). So, stumbling across your podcast and 450 formula have made this experience for me so much more...Read full review »

I am currently studying for my NBCOT and have found this podcast very helpful! Some episodes are more helpful than others (based on my study style and mnemonics that work for me) but I am so thankful I have this to use while studying! If you are first starting to study, I suggest beginning with...Read full review »

I have literally never written a review on a podcast but this pod helped me pass the exam. I wish I would have listened to them before I started studying anything else!

Just found your podcast off of a blog post and listened to episode 8. I love your approach on how to look at the exam in a different/more approachable light. I’m optimistic about listening to the rest of your episodes. Thank you!

This is such a great resource to supplement studying for NBCOT. Especially on the days when you can’t stare at your computer or a textbook any more. Thank you for making these so easy to understand and accessible!

Thanks to this podcast, I passed the NBCOT and I’m not a COTA/L. this podcast is amazing at breaking down information that’s hard to digest into smaller chunks that are easy to remember and apply.

I am so thankful for this podcast and for Miles for putting this all together. I can’t tell you how helpful the mnemonics were in helping me tackle huge topics. I feel so much better about the exam and would recommend this to anyone studying the NBCOT!
Jammy1904 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/23
This podcast was a huge resource for me and how I passed the exam. I cannot thank Miles enough for the time and effort that went into creating these podcasts and study guides!! I would recommend this podcast to every soon-to-be OT out there!!!
KasiaOTR via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/09/23
Miles makes learning fun and easy with great mnemonics and examples. Professors will beat a topic to death and still no one understands. Miles can teach it once and people will remember it for years. Thank you!

This podcast was one of the biggest reasons I passed the exam! Thank you Miles 🙏🏽

I highly recommend OT exam prepper podcast and the UE packet. Both were so helpful and Miles does such a great job of explaining the material in a way that is understandable. He is fantastic and is a big reason I passed the exam! Thank you so much Miles!
hdjqiurbjdjoabf via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/06/22
Miles thank you for making this podcast!!! I passed on the first try!! The best part of this podcast (in addition to providing knowledge) is that it helped me calm down once I was in the exam. I felt way less anxious knowing that I could fall back on the pneumonics and worksheets Miles made for us!
Omg1.2.3.2.1 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/30/22
This is an INCREDIBLE supplementary study resource for those taking the nbcot. Miles does a great job of conceptualizing difficult topics and proving mnemonics/easy ways to remember things. He exemplifies studying “smarter not harder”, so much so that I purchased his hand and upper extremity...Read full review »

I honestly do not know what I would have done without these amazing mnemonics for the NBCOT exam!! Also I highly, highly recommend the OT Game Plan course. Thank you Miles for teaching in a way that makes active recall possible across all of these topics!

Your podcast has helped me with studying for my OTA test for Nbcot. I just wanted to say thanks. Katherine
Mcilwa via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/05/22
I found through studying that by listening I remember information better, I downloaded the free study guides, but I often drew everything Miles discussed myself and looked at his later. I can’t explain how much of a tremendous help this was, but after passing, I’m happy to delete it!! ;) would...Read full review »

Honestly I had such a hard time conceptualizing all the different scales. Although I understood them I would have trouble recalling the information when answering questions. This podcast has helped me so much and I no longer have difficulty recalling all of this information!
new OT guy via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/22
This podcast has been extremely helpful with preparing for the exam. It’s impossible to remember everything but these pneumonias and movie/book references have helped me recall information and feel confident in my ability to pass. Thank you so much for taking the time to make these!

I love how you provide mnemonics, easy to remember stories, and fun visual cues to help remember some of the more mundane or wordy parts to study for. I really love your podcast and REALLY appreciate the free sources to study. As a student, it’s very hard to afford a lot of helpful material, and...Read full review »

I came across this podcast courtesy of a recommendation on a study group page I was on - for, of all things, Lactation Consultants. The episode on stages of development was brilliant.

I cannot thank miles enough. This podcast was insanely helpful in preparing for the exam. I used it from the day I started to taking the actual test with reciting the mnemonics in my head.

Would not feel as prepared for the NBCOT without listening to all his episodes, multiple times in a row ;) Thank you Miles for all your hard work on creating these!
Jt968 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/30/21
He speaks so fast that the words are all blurred together and it is difficult to understand. I thought the sound was sped up at first and moved on to the second and then the third episode. But they are all the same. I became frustrated and had to give up!

This podcast help so much with remembering the hard parts Miles’ mnemonics to help remember things were extremely helpful! Must listen if you’re studying for the NBCOT!
