    I passed my MLS ASCP exam! I used the ASCP BOC and the Quick Compendium of Medical laboratory sciences. I must have reviewed over 2000 questions in 2 months. I graduated in April and recommend that you spend at least a month studying everything before taking this exam. The exam is challenging but with hard work you can pass! Thanks Dominique for the motivation!

    Hi dominique! i'll be taking the ASCP BOC in exactly 2 months, i have just finished studying chem, only micro to go. I was doing selected areas tests (hematology, immunology, urinalysis, bloodbank, 25 questions per exam) in labce (i was scoring 50%-70%, there were a couple times were i scored below 50, like 48%). I added chem and went up to 50 questions, i have taken 3 exams, and scored 62%,52% and 60%. Sometimes i feel completely lost answering these questions, mostly blood bank because they throw a bunch of random questions, i think that im doing terrible at the moment, and then i see the score, turns out i was doing "just ok". I do feel a bit scared because i do not know if i'm actually preparing myself the way i need to for this exam. Thank you so much for making these videos, i have watched the exam day vlog video over a 100 times hahaha. i Hope i can also pass this exam first try :)

    I took mine about a week after my program, during my final semester which was just clinicals, my program made us pass LabCE with a certain score after each rotation so that’s where most of my prep came from for the exam. Techs at the clinical site told me the exams not that bad, don’t stress about it so I took that literally and didn’t use my free week to cram or review and I regretted that when I was in the exam room!
    I passed with 535 but I only felt like I really knew the answer to 2 questions. I think I would have benefited from studying from more source materials. The LSU and Polansky cards are great but maybe if I read the BOC prep book I would have been more prepped for the way questions were worded? But I passed, if you did well in school and are making like 60-70% on LabCE (not just cause you memorized the answers) you’ll probably do fine too

Overall, I think it's a good tool in combination with other resources, but by itself it felt a little overwhelming trying to get through it.

The questions are in the weeds, but even the smallest context clue can help you with process of elimination. I can’t remember how random my questions were though. I know I had a lot of hematology/coag, which was my worst recall subject lol.

I'm gearing up to start my core lab clinicals in hematology and chemistry in a month and just wanted to say how appreciative I am for your content.

    I just passed my exam!! Ngl I broke down crying after it was such a relief. I used the LSU book, Polanski cards and book (my school has a copy but they unfortunately don’t make it anymore), Lab CE, and the BOC book. I did almost every question in the BOC book throughout the course of my program so I thought I’d be ready but truly nothing can prepare you for the way the answer choices are written. I felt like I was making a lot of educated guesses.
    Would you recommend holding onto your Polanski cards after graduating? I’m considering donating them to my program for other students to use but they’ve been such a great resource for me I’m hesitant to get rid of them.

Then before the exam, do a little more review and A LOT of practice questions!

    Hello! do you need to do a specific program before you take the test. You talk about "finishing your program" what program is that? Can you just take the test after doing the training? I have a BS and MS and have just started researching this certification. I am under the impression all I need to take the exam is my education and training hours, or do I need a specific CLS/MLS program too? Thank you!

    • @domilarae
      @domilarae  Рік тому

      If you studied life sciences and have the required full time work experience in a medical laboratory doing patient testing, then you may qualify to sit for the exam. If not, then you can consider a NAACLS accredited MLS program in your area for the formal training and education to be eligible.

    Hi dominique. Only one month left till exam day, and im trying my best to remain calm and stay positive about the exam. I wanted to know if this happened to you, up until recently i was doing labce exams the 100 questions adaptive, and i always score above 50%. I started with a 4.7 difficulty and worked my way up to >5.5, with 52-60 correct answers. Once i scored like 50 something questions right with a difficulty average of 6.54 and i noticed that the questions started repeating more often, which i thought was helping me boost my score the wrong way, did you also get repeated questions from time to time? Literally the same exact question show up (like 5~10). I stopped doing those for a week and focused on doing the questions in the harr book. That book has helped me a lot, because it has helped me identify the knowledge gaps i have, i always manage to get over half the questions (the ones in the harr book) right (like 55%-60%) today i did another labce mock test and scored 54% with an average difficulty of 5.5 but almost no questions repeated and i feel ok about it. Did you also get repeated questions in the labce everytime you took those tests? Do you have any words of encouragement for me? Thank you in advance and sorry for the long comment, love your vids

    • @domilarae

      @camilleramos8659 okay, this may or may not be helpful. The patient has a prolonged aPTT. The mixing study didn’t correct the aPTT, so it could be something systemic that’s inhibiting clotting, not a clotting factor deficiency. The DRVVT screens for lupus like antibodies that could be inhibiting the clotting process in the patient. It might be helpful to learn mixing study interpretations to understand why you wouldn’t perform the other tests.

    Hello I am from The Gambia, West Africa and I'm planning to move to the US for my graduate studies in biomedical science.I wanted to know the procedure to follow to find a job as a medical laboratory scientist in the US...I mean how easy is it to find a job in the science field as an immigrant..Thanks

      That procedure is outlined on the ASCP website. It will give information on qualifications for the international examination.

      What classes did you take ? Work experience? If no classes in medical lab science and no work experience with clinical specimens, then school would be the best route.

      @domilarae  8 місяців тому

      Either of the resources will work. The books are sectioned off by area, so you can just study the chemistry section if that makes sense. Or even get the chemistry textbook, but its alot of information and moreso helpful as a reference text instead of reading the entire book.

Most jobs either provide this opportunity or you can find many websites like LabCe, CDC, American Red Cross, etc - that provide online modules to laborstory professionals. I believe its 30 or so credits every three years to maintain certification

      @@nasirajabeen8010 if you are looking to practice, then the books mentioned in the video should be helpful. if you are looking for full textbooks - maybe “Textbook of Diagnostic Microbiology”. Or there’s a similar microbiology book by Bailey And Scott. You may have to find additional text to supplement for medical mycology as well as Parasitology. I have see those books on Amazon, but I haven’t read them to suggest titles.
