rlmirand Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 hello fellow blood bankers-i want to share my joy with you all. On friday, i sat for the sbb exam and i passed it on the first try! It was very stressful and intense, and i am so glad that it is over. For anyone out there who is considering taking the test, i wish you all the luck in the world! There is another thread out there about tips for passing the exam...i went through a caahep program, used the technical manual, denise harmening's "modern blood banking and transfusion practices" (5th ed), and the blood group antigen facts book as my primary study materials. I also want to say what a valuable resource this website is -- especially the case studies!http://www.indianablood.org/educationtraining/pages/specialisteducation.aspx:hooray::hooray:-heather congratulations! I know exactly how you feel. I passed my sbb last year after a year of struggle and grief. Hooray to ibc! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L106 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I think L106 means "SBB exam", but I listed my resources in my original post, too. Good luck if you choose to self-study!Yes, I meant SBB. (Sorry!) Surely it wasn't a Freudian slip when I typed "BSS" (as in "BS") instead of "SBB"!! (Just teasing!)Your son is beautiful!!Donna Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cinbb Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Special Congratulations on Passing the SBB! I studied the same texts in minute detail along with the Standards. I did not take any special courses. Just studied A LOT on my own. It took me 2 tries but it was a total feeling of ELATION and PRIDE when I saw that PASS flash on the exam screen! This Site is fantastic for information helpful to passing the exam. At least 3-5 questions were related to Malcom Needs' posts. Everyone here is so helpful and Blood Bank intelligent I don't think I would have passed without the support of Blood Bank Talk members.So Celebrate! You earned it!Best Regards:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarest Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Congratulations. Yes it is a hard exam and I too would never have passed it without going through a SBB program. I can recommend the program at Rush University.Could anyone please give me more info. about this university and the program? By the way, I am in Canada. Thanks a lot!
