5.0 out of 5 stars A must study before the registry exam, December 7, 2006

It's true that these cards aren't in the traditional flashcard Q&A format, but these cards are a great way to review for the certification exam or just to keep on top of things. There's no fluff whatsoever and so far I haven't come across anything that is incorrect or severely deficient for the ASCP/NCA exam, with the exception of the blood bank section, which only grazes the surface in that area.

I expected question on one side and answer on the other side of the supposed Review Cards. Isn't that what Review Cards/Flash Cards are supposed to be?
Instead, it's just outlines of summarized info. It's like Cliff Notes in card format.
I give it 3 stars - an OK rating, bec. I did like the straight-to-the-point writing style.

Believe me, I only had 3 weeks to concentrate on my review for the MT(ASCPi)examinations. With such very little time, I even scheduled my flight as a study time and to finish 1 subject in 2 hours. I was able to read the entire Urinalysis & body fluids topic while on board the plane on my way to Manila for the exam. That was fast, yet it helped me focus on important things to remember that are frequently asked in the exam. Quick review cards by Polansky helped me a lot, and prayers too. I was able to pass the exam the following day. Thanks to Polansky for such a great help.
