Report
Back in the days after graduating from PT school before the day I passed my board exam I was dirt poor. I know I am not alone in this scenario. Most people who pursue higher education find ourselves in that gap between running out of student loan money and getting that first real paycheck. I was in this gap myself when I was attempting to get my PT board exam results.
As any PT can tell you the board exam is administered on a computer and there is no reason what so ever that results shouldn't be posted right away so you know if you passed or not. The money grubbers at FSBPT charge
