This review is from: Advanced Respiratory Therapist Exam Guide: The Complete Resource for the Written Registry and Clinical Simulation Exams (Book with CD-ROM) (Paperback)

This book provides an adequate review style outline for respiratory care. However, if you can only buy two books, I would recommend Persing's book, and the written registry exam review by Wojciechowski. I think this book was a waste of my money. Also, the CD-Rom doesn't work. Other options for practicing these exams include purchasing individual exams from www.goamp.com. They provide you with feed back, so you understand why your answer is wrong and another answer is the best choice.

This review is from: Advanced Respiratory Therapist Exam Guide: The Complete Resource for the Written Registry and Clinical Simulation Exams (Book with CD-ROM) (Paperback)

I GOT THIS BOOK AND THE CD-ROM DIDN'T WORK SO I HAD TO HAVE A NEW ONE SENT. SECONDLY, THE CD-ROM DOES REPLICATE THE SIMS AND SCORES IT FOR YOU BUT DOESN'T TELL YOU WHY YOU PASSED OF FAILED THE SIM AND WHAT THE BETTER CHOICES COULD BE. SPEND THE EXTRA MONEY AND TIME AND GO TO KETTERING NATIONAL SEMINARS BECAUSE THIS BOOK IS A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY.

4.0 out of 5 stars I passed the RRT, November 13, 2006

This review is from: Advanced Respiratory Therapist Exam Guide: The Complete Resource for the Written Registry and Clinical Simulation Exams (Advanced Respiratory Therapy Exam Guide) (Paperback)

I used this book along with some tapes from kettering and some practice simulations on the kettering website and I passed both parts of the RRT the first time. I think this book is a good review of what is on the test, but I don't recommend using this book alone.
