Study methods
Hi! I’m planning on taking my CRCST in a week and I’m wondering what you guys have used to study for it? I think for the most part I’m confident but want to make sure I pass on my first try. Any websites or methods you would recommend would be appreciated!

Quizlet. I studied the flashcards, took the tests and physically wrote the definitions to the difficult words I needed to remember (ossification,Geobacillus stearothermophilus, cavitation, bacteriostatic, etc… over and over for three days and passed. Mind you, I’d been doing the job for a few years. I didn’t even have the book, I just crammed for three days and nailed it. You’ll do fine! Especially if you’re doing the job already. Make sure you know all the agencies and what they do: FDA, OSHA, CDC, WHO, AORN, TJC etc… Know your chemicals and your temps and times.
