I bought four books before renting this one. This book is thee book i would recommend to everyone. It is the most accurate to the exam. It also has awesome reviews followed by the questions you actually will find on the test.

I loved this book. I got it back in January and have been studying from it. It goes into complete detail and breaks down everything. It's an amazing book. Even though it doesn't come with a CD, there is a website on the back of the book that you can go to and create an account for free and they have EVERY chapter in this book with practice exams plus more exams that weren't in the book. I would recommend this book over any of the other certification books!

Arrived on time, Good conditionSo far very helpful I really like how the book is set up. I just finished my training forsurgical technology and will be taking my my certification test. Great review ToolGood Buy

I would recommend this book to anyone wanting to study and pass their CST exam. This book is very straight forward. Includes rationales and an array on content.

My daughter is studying to take her Operating Room Test and so far she says the book is very helpful to her. It is definitely a good buy. Thanks

It took a bit longer to receive the book as expected, however once I got the book it had everything I was looking for. I needed to use it for my CST exam, and I was able to pass it with the help of this book. The only reason why this review is given 4 stars, is because there were a few items on my exam that I believe this book could have gone more into detail with. One of those being the medications and anesthesia. While it does touch on it, it could be better. Otherwise, great study tool! I am grateful that I bought this book, and would again.

I was excited about this when I purchased it, but noticed that there isn't a DVD to take practice tests on a computer. This would have been a useful study tool as the certification exam is a web based exam

A LITTLE HARDER THAN MOST REVIEW BOOKS, BUT WORTH THE $. This book has a website that actually gives you quizzes for each chapter. This was a great tool, allows you to see what you do and don't know.
