Congratulations!! :)

Congratulations!!! Your hard work paid off 🥳

Since you're only a few days away now, really focus on the biggest subjects, especially on the ones you aren't that confident in. HIGHLY recommend the wordsology website for the high yield notes! And I see Marilyn is having a study session the day before your exam. If you're able, definitely join so you can get some extra help and a confidence boost! She's super helpful. The night before your exam don't cram yourself into exhaustion and try your best to get some good sleep the night before. Eat a good breakfast too. These are things I should've done 😭 . On the day of, don't stress yourself out by looking at a bunch of heavy info. Keep it light and the flashcards you have should be good for this. Remember your calculations!!! You wanna get these right since they're easy. On the exam, really think through every question and break it down. Eliminate what you are sure is wrong and go from there. Don't freak out if you don't know something, trust me, I had A LOT of things I didn't know 😭. Make your absolute best guess and move on. I hope all of this is helpful! Good luck and I'm sure you'll do great :)

@Yancy Diaz No problem at all! 😊

Yay congrats on graduating soon! Very exciting. I think the LSU book should be sufficient enough for learning those things, but if you need extra information I would just Google it to find out. On quizlet there are tons of study sets if you search "ascp mycology" for example as well. For formulas you need to know you can find them towards the end of the content guideline here: https://ascpcontentwebsite.blob.core.windows.net/boccontent/docs/default-source/explore-credentials/content-guidelines/ascp_ascpi_mlt_content_guideline.pdf?sfvrsn=507fe042_1

@Catherine Carter No problem!

Don't panic! 4 months should be plenty of time to study if you're consistent. That's roughly what I had. I would start by finding the content outlines for those exams so you know exactly what you're expected to know for the exams. Study each subject for at least a week and begin with high yield subjects and concepts. My study routine was basically: 1. Take notes over certain topic using PowerPoints from school and purple and gold book 2. Take a 25 or 50 question selected areas exam on review mode with LabCE over the topic(s) that I just studied, for example, microcytic anemia. 3. Write down questions that I missed or guessed on with the explanation. 4. After studying for a couple weeks take a mock exam on LabCE to see your progress overall. 5. For calculations and reference ranges I wrote them down over and over until I remembered them. I hope this helps! :)
