So has anyone got the CSMLS report back yet or sat the exam?? I would really like to discuss this with anyone, either on here or by PM, as I'm intrigued and a little scared about the exam as it sounds hideous!!! I have got my report back from CSMLS and have to do a refresher in Histo but thats it so I'm super happy!!!
I think you need work experience because letter from your employer is a requirement...and at least clinical internship experience is a must....you can get more info from this link: http://www.csmls.org/Certification/Certification-Process/IEMLT.aspxpaigey said:
You definately need work experience as that counts for a massive section of the application otherwise you will probably have to go to university as they don;t have on the job trainees like we do in the UK and I was surprised to hear it as I was willing to start all over again just to get a job!!!
So anyone CSMLS exam??? Come on!!!!! In fact any news at all....
PLA done...was a total beast and I have to do a histo refresher course but thats fine as I was expecting it! Just make sure when anyone does the PLA that you have as much evidence to back up your statements as possible, I was really lucky and my seniors were excellent but reading in some areas some techs weren't so lucky!!!

yes coz you dont have a choice. you need the PLA to assess your eligibility and further requirements. assuming your a med tech, just put your clinical internship training coz thats all you got as of now and will still be considered for evaluation.paigey said:

Its been a long time since I've been on here but I thought I'd see if anyone still checks this and how people are getting on with PLA and CSMLS exams etc... I've just sat my exam and results are in the post...its all a bit scary and essential to pass so no pressure there then!!!!!! Anyway good to hear from anyone and hopefully its stories of success xx

Congratulations for passing MLT. I have forgotten about this post that I started way back. Here are my updates. I already finished my PLA and im planning to write MLT exam this October. I am apprehensive to write it this June as I wanted to make sure i covered all the bases before paying $1000 (yikes!) for the exam. I already passed the MLA (assistant) that I was automatically qualified to write upon my fininshing my PLA.
