REVIEWS
I just purchased the fourth addition after having bought and lost the third edition. I am currently studying to take the ASCP MLS exam this month; and I really liked the previous edition. After I take the test Ill come back on here and give a thorough book review as well as a review of the exam. Ill be posting on all of the major book review sites and on indeed.com, in large part to give prospective ASCP exam applicants a foundation in which to build their studying. Im doing this because I felt that information regarding ASCP MLS exam prep was sorely lacking on the internet. Although, there is an excellent website that provides nice review notes as well as other exam information. Just google "ASCP wordsology" and the site will be the first one that comes up.
I have had this book not more than 5-6 hours and my preliminary analysis is that this is a great resource, and provides excellent feedback. I used the CD resource a few hours ago to take a couple of quizzes. My goal is to better prepare for lab results associated with disease states, or vice versa. So, I hoped that the CD resources would concentrate in that area. I can tell that the quizzes are excellent. You can arrange your own quizzes by subject and difficulty level. The level 3 difficulty quizzes did not disappoint. They were heavily geared towards lab results associated with disease states; and thats exactly what I wanted. I was initially worried that some formatting may had been changed in regards to the previous editions, but it appears that this book as has went above and beyond what the previous editions have presented. I will go in to more detail after the exam. Stay tuned, after January 17 Ill be back!
Good luck to all of you taking the ASCP MLS exam soon!

Science Probes for the iPad
Science is one of those subjects that really excite students because they get to see cause and effect, they get to create, record and then document results and they get to manipulate the variables that produce the data. Students then get to make connections between what they do and the real world.

Add an iPad, a series of carefully chosen apps and a couple of probes and you can make all of these observations happen in a mobile environment - outside, at home or even on an excursion. I would love to be a student in a classroom with these tools!
