Hints: Use your old quizzes, CTQ’s, and test to review types of questions you may come in contact with. Review the pictures in the chapters they will be in the visual component of the assessment. Google images of the epithelials we viewed in lab to practice for the visuals on tissues. Look at the webpage and the practice websites posted there.
