Is very helpful, the teacher explained everything very clear

By Catherine Wood on 11/8/2020

The links to external pages are old. None of the pages exist anymore. None of the 'Resources' are available in PDF form as is shown in the explanations. I feel I am not getting what I paid for if I have to go searching the internet in hopes of finding similar PDF files.

I grew up with my mother being the RN and my father working as a RPh. A lot of this information is a review for me from when I was studying to be a Veterinary Assistant/Technician. I am looking forward to applying all of my knowledge to an everyday career helping the patient, pharmacist,etc.
