I'm currently typing this as I'm walking out of the testing center. lol. That experience made me question if I was fit for this career, but I ended up passing, first try. THANK YOU for all the resources and laughs! I coundn't have passed my MLS exam without them.

Anything can help memorize and understand ?

I passed the ASCP Exam on the 1st try!!!

I passed!!! 🎉 I have NO idea how! Does not feel real..... That test was... I don't even know what that test was. I feel like I dissociated through the entire exam. The only thing I kept whispering to myself was, "Think it through," just like Marilyn @marilynthescientist always says. Meanwhile, my internal monologue was just the F-word every two minutes. 😂 I was fully convinced I was failing the entire time!!! I mean THE WHOLE TIME. I almost walked out🤣 I felt despair self-deprecation you name it but..... I clicked Submit, a few words I barely even comprehended appeared on the screen, and then I saw PASS. Ten weeks of nonstop studying paid off! Afterthoughts: I despised my program director and basically lived at school five days a week, 8 hours a day for two and a half years. It still feels like a fever dream. But somehow I made it through......
