Online Practice Tests To Help You Pass The MBLEx in 2021

Passing the MBLEx is often the last hurdle before you can get your massage license and begin your new career as a professional massage therapist. 

Unfortunately, only 73.4% of MBLEx candidates pass the massage exam on their first attempt. And for those who have to retake the exam, only 40% pass (according to the FSMTB 2019 Annual Report).

Failing the MBLEx can be discouraging. Plus it means spending another $265 and waiting another 30 days before you can reschedule the exam. This postpones being able to start working as a massage therapist at least a month. 

You’ve worked hard to get this far. Don’t let the massage licensing exam slow you down. 

Increase your chance of success with MBLExGuide!

Why include practice tests in your MBLEx study plan?

Practice tests are one of the best ways to improve recall and prepare for an exam. Reading from textbooks is important to learn the concepts initially. But research shows that reading the same material over and over again is NOT the best way to increase recall and improve performance on tests. 

Using practice tests frequently is a much better strategy to increase your recall of the material. This is called the testing effect. Testing makes your memory stronger and makes it easier to retrieve the information you learn.

Repeated testing is an effective strategy for learning and retaining information about human anatomy.

Logan, J.M., Thompson, A.J., Marshal, D.W. (2011). Testing to enhance retention in human anatomy. Anatomical Sciences Education, Vol. 4, Issue 5, pp.243-248.

Repeated studying after learning had no effect on delayed recall, but repeated testing produced a large positive effect.

Karpicke, J.D., Roediger, H.L. (2008). The Critical Importance of Retrieval for Learning. Science, Vol. 319, pp.966-968.

Immediate testing after reading a prose passage promoted better long-term retention than repeatedly studying the passage.

Roediger, H.L., Karpicke, J.D. (2006). Test-Enhanced Learning: Taking memory tests Improves long-term retention. Psychological Science, Vol. 17, p.253.

Repeated testing with feedback appears to result in significantly greater long-term retention of information taught in a didactic conference than repeated, spaced study.

Larsen, D.P., Butler, A.C., Roediger, H.L. (2009). Repeated testing improves long-term retention relative to repeated study: a randomized controlled trial. Medical Education, Vol 43, issue 12, pp. 1174-1181

"Just wanted to say I appreciate mblexguide.com. I just passed the MBLEx yesterday on my first try and I really only used this site to study. I took practice test after practice test for about two months and I know it was the key to my success! Thank You!"
Amber R.Massage Therapist
I passed the MBLEx! I felt confident and ready when it was time to take the exam. Taking all those quizzes definitely helped! Thanks again:)
Jessica C.Massage Therapist
Thanks MBLExGuide! I finally passed the massage licensing exam!!! This was my second attempt. The first time I tried to just use my notes from class and textbooks to study, but I was very unprepared when it was time to take the exam. I didn't want to take any chances this time and I'm glad I found your website!
Taylor G.Massage Therapist
You made it so simple to prepare for the MBLEx. I joined for 3 months and just took a few of quizzes every night. Then I took about 30 minutes to review any I missed or had to guess. Thank you!
Amanda O.Massage Therapist
I passed! I graduated massage school several years ago so I definitely needed this review. I would absolutely recommend mblexguide to anyone preparing for the mblex.
Michael I.Massage Therapist
OMG this helped so much! I passed the MBLEx and am now completing my state license application. Looking forward to starting a part-time massage job soon!
Rachel S.Massage Therapist
You guys rock! I had my first job lined up after graduation and they wanted a therapist ASAP. So I didn't want to risk failing and having to retake the MBLEx. I passed, got my license and will soon start working at an awesome multi-therapist practice. High fives!
Emily F.Massage Therapist
I really appreciate the extra information you give about why the correct answer is correct. I had previously tried another test prep website and they did not give any explanation about the correct answer.
Brittany M.Massage Therapist
This is definitely better study material than ****, which is who the school tells us to use. The questions there weren't even similar and I failed my first time. My first attempt at the MBLEx was aweful and made me feel very dumb when I got all A's and one B the whole time I was in school. I love the study material and full-length tests which I will be taking after school. This is helping me a lot. The questions here are more like what appears on the MBLEx, so this is definitely better study material!
Tina N.Massage Therapist
Good stuff here on mblexguide.com! I passed the exam on my first attempt no problem. Now I help out as a teaching assistant at my massage school and have recommended mblexguide.com to current students.
Josh L.Massage Therapist
Hi. I used your website to help me prepare for the MBLEx. I found the quizzes and full-length exams very useful. The price was a great value compared to the alternatives. I passed the exam and it actually seemed easy after going through all the practice tests here. Thank you!
Elizabeth P.Massage Therapist
I am so glad I found MBLExGuide. I was honestly concerned about passing because I always get nervous when taking tests. I was still pretty nervous when I sat down to take it but after about 10 questions I was like "I totally got this!" Thanks again!
Ashley R.Massage Therapist
Really helpful study resource. I took 5 full-length practice tests and many of the short quizzes for each section of the MBLEx. I realized that I was weakest in kinesiology and pathology, so it helped me to focus my study time in those areas. I really appreciate you!
