Filipino physical therapists blacklisted in the U.S.

Filipinos are now banned from taking the US licensure test in physical therapy due to evidence of examination leak in some review centers.

In a decision released by the Federation of State Board of Physical Therapy in the US, applicants from the Philippines, Egypt and India are suspended from taking the National Physical Therapy Examinations or NPTE for at least a year.

Next time there is an indignation rally against some form of "cheating" scandal, let us remember the above example and understand that cheating is really an ingrained part of our culture.
