Written by practicing medical technologists, the text is well-organized and drawn from a wealth of hands-on experience. The authors explain everything from what to expect and how answers will be scored to reliable test-taking strategies. Readers will learn to identify personal strengths and weaknesses. Coverage includes: Clinical Chemistry, Hematology and Hemostasis, Immunohematology, Microbiology, Immunology, and Laboratory Practice -- reflecting the most current NCA content outlines. Uniquely designed to help both CLT and CLS candidates prepare, this handy reference clearly divides each chapter into two sets of review questions and answers -- one set for the CLT exam, one set for the CLS exam. Correct answers immediately follow the questions, along with any necessary explanations. The helpful Review Tests section at the end of the book offers a sampling of both the type and mix of questions used on the actual certification exams -- now matching the NCA exam in length and distribution of questions. Full of charts, graphs, and current references for further study, NCA Review for the Clinical Laboratory Sciences, Third Edition is the ideal guide to successfully prepare for the NCA exam -- and work confidently in a clinical laboratory. Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Not what I was looking for.This was recommended by the NCA website for those wishing to take the Clinical Laboratory Specialist in Molecular Biology. This book as NO information about Molecular Biology in it. Total waste of money. NCA should not be recommending this book for this specific certification. The book is also just full of questions, like a practice test. Rating: - NCA review for the Clinical laboratoryThis book was a waste of money. I also gave it to a CLS student and she didn't even look at it. There are way better books for CLS reviews. Not enough depths. Rating:  - Fairly Good bookI purchased this book years ago and in my opinion it's better than other review books I've purchased. I like the fact that there are explanations for all the answers. You don't just get an answer and left to research why the answer is what it is. Understanding why you have an answer is very important when your dealing with taking an exam, especially a board exam. Rating: - not for Mac users!I purchased this book mainly for the CD test. Too bad for me that nowhere in the reviews does it mention that it can't be used in a Mac! I don't really care for the format of the questions, either - I've purchased much better review guides; especially the CLS Review by Harr (of course, you can't use it's floppy in a Mac, either - that's why I wasted my money on another book)
