5.0 out of 5 stars Comprehensive Lactation Consultant Exam Review with CD-ROM, August 10, 2001

Elliot A. Gibbs (Richmond Va., US) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

This review is from: Comprehensive Lactation Consultant Exam Review (Book with CD-ROM for Windows & Macintosh) (Paperback)

This book is an excellent preparation and a "must have" for the IBCLC Exam. If you have not taken a board exam in a long time, this book gets you into "exam mode". Sometimes, taking a test of this nature requires good exam skills. This book gives you plenty of much needed practice. The first part of the book delves into the different sections on the exam blueprint. It lists topics to learn and resources to read. The second part is three 200 questions tests. Eighty some questions in each test are based on pictures from the CD-ROM. The answers generally give the reasons for the right and wrong answer, list the difficulty of the question, and state from what section of the exam blueprint it pertains to. Having practiced with these tests, I felt very confident going into the Exam. It also is a great review for LCs who are retaking the certification exam. I heard comments from several LCs who stated the first exam they took they did not do as well as they thought because oftentimes taking exams is all about practice. They performed much better on the subsequent exams when they studied their mistakes. This is a "must have" for everyone planning to sit for the board exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars RN, IBCLC, June 8, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Comprehensive Lactation Consultant Exam Review (Book with CD-ROM for Windows & Macintosh) (Paperback)

This text and tests were very helpful in preparation for the lactation consultant exam. Very good practice exams helped those of us who haven't been in school for a while. The exams help with content and timing. CD Rom was helpful for the picture portion of the exam.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource for those taking the exam for IBCLC certification, November 11, 2008

LC in Wilmington (North Carolina) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: Comprehensive Lactation Consultant Exam Review (Paperback)

The book includes 3 full practice exams. I took one a year before the actual exam and made a 65, I took the second one a few months after starting to really study and got a 75. The last exam I took a month before the actual examination and got an 85 - which is the grade I received on the actual test. I found it so helpful to know which areas I needed to work on.
