I passed!

Aside from various editing errors (not sure if it's just the Kindle edition or with the book as a whole), but I passed my test on my first try! This book has helped me a lot.

These books look so out of place on my shelves! No vampires or anything!

Ahem. Anyway. Liked this version. The CD with study tests and flash cards is awesome. Except for that one question in, maybe study exam IV where it says that hydrocodone is the generic for Dilaudid. That is just a big lie, and I see you trying to set me up for failure, book.

I passed my PTCE so I can’t complain! It is a bit outdated now but that’s to be expected.

After finishing one technician book, you would think starting another one a little crazy...Right? This review book has so much more information in it. It would've been crazy not to read it.
