Day 8 🧪 Welcome back to 30 Days of ASCP: Ratchet Study Tips! 🍄🔬 Today we’re locking in the dimorphic fungi that LOVE to show up on exams:Coccidioides, Histoplasma, Blastomyces, and Paracoccidioides. From boxcar-shaped arthroconidia and spherules, to spiky tuberculate macroconidia, to lollipop conidia, to the mariner’s wheel in tissue; if you know the growth pattern, the spores, and the geography, these questions get a LOT easier. Save this for later, send it to your study partner, and follow

Day 25 🧪 Welcome back to 30 Days of ASCP: Ratchet Study Tips 🤪🤏🏽🤏🏽🤏🏽 Today we’re locking in Mycobacterium, because these organisms follow their own rules. Mycobacteria have thick, waxy cell walls rich in mycolic acids, which is why they don’t Gram stain well and require an acid-fast stain. If the red dye stays after acid alcohol, it’s acid-fast. Growth rate matters too: slow growers like Mycobacterium tuberculosis, M. bovis, M. kansasii, and MAC take weeks to grow and form dry or rough c

📚 When studying for the ASCP, don’t lose sight of the big picture. It’s easy to get bogged down in every tiny biochemical reaction, enzyme pathway, or obscure organism… but remembering key clinical associations is just as important. 👉🏽 For example, if a patient has Cystic Fibrosis, you should immediately think of the three major organisms that are clinically significant in these cases. 🦠 Pseudomonas aeruginosa 🦠 Stenotrophomonas maltophilia 🦠 Burkholderia cepacia Questions like this test w

Studying parasitology for the ASCP exam can feel overwhelming. There are so many parasites to memorize; protozoa, helminths, blood parasites, intestinal parasites…each with unique life cycles and identifying features. The best way to study parasites is to group them, focus on their standout characteristics, and practice with ASCP-style questions until they stick. This is how I teach my students to actually remember parasitology and pass the ASCP. 🧪 Ready to simplify parasitology and crush your

Day 15 🧪 Welcome back to 30 Days of ASCP: Make It Make Sense because once you get it, you never forget it. Leukemias are cancers of the bone marrow that cause uncontrolled production of white blood cells. The key to understanding them is recognizing whether the cells are acute or chronic, and whether they’re myeloid or lymphoid. Acute leukemias involve immature cells called blasts and progress rapidly. You’ll see high blast counts, anemia, thrombocytopenia, and patients who are very sick very f

Day 21🧪 Welcome back to 30 Days of ASCP: Make It Make Sense, because once you get it, you never forget it. CSF is collected in multiple tubes because each tube answers a different clinical question, and the order matters due to contamination during collection. Tube 1 is typically used for chemistry and serology because it may contain a small amount of blood contamination from the needle entering the space. Tube 2 is often used for microbiology, since sterility improves as collection continues.

If you don’t know your cells, you’re cooked for the ASCP exam. 🥴😬 Every lab scientist remembers that first moment when the microscope just clicked: when you looked down and realized, “Oh, that’s a lymphocyte.” ✅ It’s not just about memorizing cell types for the ASCP exam, it’s about training your eye to recognize what’s normal and what isn’t. In real lab life, that skill can be the difference between catching leukemia on a smear or missing it completely. Knowing morphology means you understand

Marilyn | CLS MLS(ASCP) on Instagram: "This is what a vaginal parasite actually looks like under the microscope. Yes… it really moves like that. What you’re seeing here is Trichomonas vaginalis, a sexually transmitted parasite. It’s transmitted through sexual contact and commonly causes vaginal discharge, itching, irritation, and discomfort, though many people can be asymptomatic. In this video, you can see its characteristic jerky, tumbling motility, and it’s literally dragging a red blood cell

Day 24 🧪 Welcome back to 30 Days of ASCP: Ratchet Study Tips 🤪🤏🏽🤏🏽🤏🏽 Today we’re locking in an easy tapeworm distinction that the exam loves to test: proglottid shape. If the proglottids are longer than they are broad, think Taenia species: Taenia solium and Taenia saginata both follow this rule. If the proglottids are broader than they are long, that points you to Diphyllobothrium latum, the broad fish tapeworm, and yes, the name is the hint. One segment shape can take you straight to t
