[Histonet] ASCP Route 2 HT Certification
Hi, I was hoping someone could help me with the following questions: 1) What happens to the money if I were to submit my transcript and my fees for the exam and end up not qualifying? Do I lose my money or is it credited for when I do qualify? 2) How do I determine what classes are considered BIO and Chem? Does the prefix for the course ID have to contain BIO or Chem? 3) Can the courses taken be similar? Example: School A: I took Chem10: Intro to Chemistry School B: Chm:3 Chemistry basics. If these classes are interchangeable between schools do they still count or does it have to be a more difficult chemistry course for it to qualify? 4)Is there anyway to check if you do qualify before paying exam fees? 5)Do you have to pass the class with a C or higher? I took a BIO class years ago and received a D, but I was given the credited hours for the course. Route 2 for HT certification for ASCP At least 60 semester hours (90 quarter hours) of academic credit from a regionally accredited college/university, with a combination of 12 semester hours (18 quarter hours) of biology and chemistry, or an associate degree from a regionally accredited college/university, with a combination of 12 semester hours (18 quarter hours) of biology and chemistry, AND one year full time acceptable experience in a histopathology (clinical, veterinary, industry or research) laboratory in the U.S., Canada or an accredited laboratory* within the last ten years.

Re: [Histonet] ASCP Route 2 HT Certification
Thank you for responding. I agree with you that the ASCP would be the best source of information, but unfortunately I spoke with someone who was in charge of reviewing the applications. She was unprofessional and offered little assistance. I will attempt to contact them again, but finding the time to be placed on hold for 30mins while I am at work is difficult. I was hoping someone would know from experience or perhaps someone who is involved with the process would be able to offer some guidance. -Eric On Wed, May 4, 2011 at 2:42 PM, Nails, Felton flna...@texaschildrens.orgwrote: Your best answer will come from ASCP so contact them directly.

Re: [Histonet] ASCP Route 2 HT Certification
First class, first quarter in college. Should have taken it more seriously, but everyone makes mistakes and learns from them.
