[Histonet] ASCP Route 2 HT Certification

[Eric Velazquez]

Hi,

I was hoping someone could help me with the following questions:

1) What happens to the money if I were to submit my transcript and my fees
for the exam and end up not qualifying? Do I lose my money or is it credited
for when I do qualify?
2) How do I determine what classes are considered BIO and Chem? Does the
prefix for the course ID have to contain BIO or Chem?
3) Can the courses taken be similar? Example: School A: I took Chem10: Intro
to Chemistry & School B: Chm:3 Chemistry basics. If these classes are
interchangeable between schools do they still count or does it have to be a
more difficult chemistry course for it to qualify?
4)Is there anyway to check if you do qualify before paying exam fees?
5)Do you have to pass the class with a C or higher? I took a BIO class years
ago and received a D, but I was given the credited hours for the course.


Route 2 for HT certification for ASCP
At least 60 semester hours (90 quarter hours) of academic credit from a
regionally accredited college/university, with a combination of 12 semester
hours (18 quarter hours) of biology and chemistry, or an associate degree
from a regionally accredited college/university, with a combination of 12
semester hours (18 quarter hours) of biology and chemistry, AND one year
full time acceptable experience in a histopathology (clinical, veterinary,
industry or research) laboratory in the U.S., Canada or an accredited
laboratory* within the last ten years.

Thanks,
Eric
