  • Although the experience of preparing for the NBCOT® exam will forever remain etched in my memory, it has been a long while since I've taken the exam so I invited my good friends Emilio Villavicencio and Noémie von Kaenel to discuss what their recent experience was like sitting for the occupational therapy board exam. So join us, as they share their best tips and strategies for how they prepared for the exam and successfully passed it on their first attempt.

    I failed by TWO POINTS my first time testing in 2019, and now in just a month I'm taking the NBCOT again! So much has changed in my own life between then and now, but Miri your videos have kept me on track and been a phenomenal supplemental resource since before I even began studying three years ago! Thank you so much for your time and effort creating this content for us!

    This channel was a blessing during my season taking the NBCOT in 2016-2017. And by God’s grace and mercy and love, I passed and have been working for almost 5 years as an OTR. And I love this ministry He called me to be a part of. God bless you and your channel, Miri.

For me, this channel is not only my passion, but also my ministry and it delights me to know that you and I are working and living through a shared mission and purpose.

      Yes! Dominican University of California forever has my heart as it was my first speaking engagement event where lifelong friendships were forged. Also, I'll never forget the cute, charming little lodge by the campus that DUC arranged for me to stay in. It was such a heartwarming experience all around. So much love!!!

    Hi Miri! I wanted to leave a comment to say that I passed my exam on the first attempt. Your videos were really helpful, alongside the podcast OT Exam Prepper (really great resource for anyone studying; it helped me a lot and I didn't discover it until 1 week before my exam!) I ended up taking almost 3 months to prep (it was excessive but I was being super laid back and inconsistent for the first full month of studying, so it was basically 2 months of prep really). I used AOTA study pack and the practice exams from Therapy Ed. The Therapy Ed tests were significantly more difficult than the actual exam and that psyched me out into rescheduling my exam to give myself an extra 2.5 weeks to prepare, which I don't think would have been necessary because I ended up passing with a score of 540. I almost certainly over prepared and over stressed because of therapy ed shaking my confidence, but at the same time their rationales were informative.

    Miri! May you please ask Noémie for her Canva visuals she made? I’m a visual learner as well and would love to study from them! If not possible, I understand. Just thought I’d ask! 🙏🏻
