This is a common question many students ask when studying for the NPTE. There are a lot of great resources out there, but NPTE Final Frontier has narrowed down the REQUIRED books and the RECOMMENDED books when it comes to NPTE preparation.
Many of these you've seen in PT school. Big text books with a lot of important information. Information in these is vital for the NPTE. But don't worry about studying each and every page. Instead you should have a detailed guide on what information matters for the NPTE.
Some of these do a good job of narrowing the focus on what material is needed for the NPTE. It is still helpful for all students to have a clear guide on what to study each day.
