I took it in 2003 and it was an easy multiple choice exam with two possible answers and two impossible answers and some true or false questions.

There are two exams, I believe. One is the NCTM and The other is NCTMB. The later includes more Eastern theories but is not that hard if you stayed awake in school and went to a COMTA accredited institution.

You get three chances if you don't pass. Most schools offer prep seminars if you are not confident.

One question I remember was something to the effect of, "What is the longest muscle in the body?" and the four choices were:
A. Brachioradialis
B. Sartorius
C. Vastus Lateralis
D. Levator Scapula

Another was, "Gliding strokes are referred to as:"
A. Petrissage
B. Effleurage
C. Tapotement
D. Friction

I think there is a practice exam on the website but I am not sure, there are definately more sample questions:

Good luck!
