ARRT prep
Customer Rating:
The questions and practice test are extremely difficult. It was almost discouraging taking the practice test and it made me nervous. However this book more than prepared me for the ARRT exam. I walked out with a 91 so I do recommend this book.
Great to guide your review process and test your knowledge, but explanations could be better
Customer Rating:
This review book helped me out in so many ways. It was a great resource and supplement to my radiography textbooks.
As I went through it, the questions and explanations allowed me to determine what I needed to focus on in my studying, and what I already knew. The chapters are broken up into topics, and each question is categorized further into a subspecialty.
The questions are pretty tough, and I would say they are moreso than the actual registry exam. This is, in fact, very helpful. The questions share a similar style, which definitely prepares you for what is asked of you on the registry exam. There are about 1000 questions available in this book between all the chapters and the two practice exams.
What I found lacking, however, was in the explanations of the answer. Some were, in fact, wrong. Others were too vague or too short. I felt this was the one shortcoming, but I supposed it's why the book should be more of a supplement than a resource. Knowing this, though, forced me to go through my textbooks for the answers that I was not sure about.
All in all, the book offers a fairly reliable study guide that leads you in the right direction to pass the registry. I'd recommend the online version if you can, as it allows for customization of tests. I felt it was more efficient, rather than having to flip back and forth through a book.
Lange QAndA: Radiography Examination, Seventh Edition (LANGE QAndA Allied Health)
Customer Rating:
Lange QAndA: Radiography Examination, Seventh Edition (LANGE QAndA Allied Health) wit a CDROM of the book, I did receive the book in excellent condition but prior to buying it said a CDROM was included in the purchase and I fell for it only to realize that it was only the hard copy.The main reason why I ordered this product was to download on my laptop to review during travel, airport wait and at my leisure or when helping out x-ray students at my job use it as a reference guide. Am very very unhappy about what I got b'cos a CD will be of much better use for me. Thanks
Good
Customer Rating:
The book is very useful for reviewing for the registry. Get it early to get started. It was in good condition and if you don't have a Amazon card already get it to get the discount that way you can get it shipped faster and still pay less than usually. Total I paid $140 for 3 books and dvd thanks to the credit card.
excelent information

I bought this book after finishing my Radiology program. Took the mock test, then find out where's my weakness and go over the chapter where I need to concentrate more on. Got a 93% in ARRT. Yippeee!!!! Good luck to all.
