Real practice questions

Straight from our Question Bank

A few of the OT school questions you'll practice, from the bank the AI interviewer draws on. Practice one now.

Question sets
Client-centered care

“A client recovering from a stroke says the only goal they care about is cooking for their family again. How would that shape therapy?”

Observation hours

“Tell me about something you saw during your observation hours that changed how you think about OT.”

Patient care

“A client refuses to take part in a session. What might be going on, and what would you do?”

The profession

“What does 'occupation' mean in occupational therapy? Give an example from your observation hours.”

OT school interview questions

Feedback built for OT School

Scored on What Interviewers Look For

Every answer gets a score out of 100 and notes on the things OT school interviewers listen for.

  1. Occupation-based thinking

    Do you talk about helping people do the everyday activities that matter to them?

  2. Client-centered care

    Do you start from the client's goals, culture and environment rather than the diagnosis?

  3. Why OT, not PT

    Can you explain what makes OT different, using something you actually observed?

  4. Creativity and teamwork

    Problem solving with limited resources, and working well with the care team. No clinical OT knowledge expected.

From a practice round

“How would you explain the difference between occupational therapy and physical therapy to a patient?”

Both help people improve their function, but OT is centered on the daily activities that matter to someone, like dressing or cooking. On an inpatient rehab unit, I saw an OT help a stroke patient use adaptive tools so they could cook for their family again. PT focuses more on movement and strength…

Follow-up: When you saw that patient using the adaptive tools, what challenges or frustrations were they facing that the therapist had to help them navigate, beyond the physical act of using the equipment?
