College of Saint Mary and FIU Join Typical Prep’s Faculty Portal to Track NPTE Readiness
Tampa, Florida, United States – November 11, 2026 – Typical Prep today announced that the Doctor of Physical Therapy programs at College of Saint Mary in Omaha, Nebraska, and Florida International University (FIU) in Miami have joined its Faculty Portal program. Faculty in both programs will use the portal to follow each student’s progress toward the National Physical Therapy Examination (NPTE) and step in early when a student falls behind.
Most programs find out whether a cohort was ready when board results come back. The Faculty Portal pulls each student’s question bank practice, quizzes, mock exams, and video lecture progress into one dashboard. Faculty see the whole class at a glance and can open any student in one click.
“Program directors shouldn’t have to wait for board results to learn which students needed help,” said Dr. Yash Shah, PT, DPT, cofounder and Chief Product Officer of Typical Prep. “College of Saint Mary and FIU can now see who is falling behind and in which content area, then assign the right practice in a few clicks.”
What the Faculty Portal Includes
Performance by content area. Cohort scores across every exam content area, broken down by category and by difficulty. Faculty can tell a class that does not know the material from a class that only misses the hard questions.
Pass Readiness Score. Each student gets a score built from question bank accuracy, mock exam results, and study consistency. Students who drop below passing are flagged automatically, with a written summary of what they are struggling with and what to assign next.
Assignments and custom exams. Faculty assign practice sets, mock exams, video lectures, or flashcard decks to one student, an at-risk group, or the whole class. They can build their own quizzes and exams and track completion in a gradebook view.
AI assistant. Faculty ask questions in plain English, such as “Which students are weakest in cardiovascular?” or “Who hasn’t practiced this week?” The assistant answers with the students and their scores, then suggests the questions and lectures to assign.
Progress over time. Every student and cohort has a score trend plotted against the cohort average and the passing line. Exportable reports cover cohort performance by content area and a pass readiness roster for program review and accreditation.
What Students Use
Students in partner programs prepare with the same Typical Prep products that feed the portal. These are an adaptive question bank with more than 1,800 scenario-based questions, an animated video course with more than 100 lectures, the Physical Therapy Essentials review book, and the Essentials flashcards. An adaptive study calendar builds each student a plan around their exam date and diagnostic results, and it rebuilds each day when they fall behind.
Faculty use the same data in capstone courses and remediation. They can plan lectures around the content areas where their cohort scores lowest and assign targeted work to the students who need it.
Availability
The Faculty Portal is available now for PT, PTA, OT, and OTA programs. NCLEX-RN and NCLEX-PN prep is in development, and nursing programs can ask about early access. Typical Prep is working to add more DPT and PTA programs, and interested programs can book a 20-minute virtual demo at typicalprep.com or email [email protected].
