ASCP course vs Osler...

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Any strong opinions out there?

both are good. Different angles tho, Osler is much geared towards gaming the test like a SAT prep class might whereas ASCP is much more bulk basic info.

Honestly, neither really replace massive prep time needed to pass and are better suited taking very early in your residency rather than late. I might even take Osler year 1 of my training and take ASCP year 2 with the idea to actually use the note sets on my rotations.

In the original conception, people actually took the Osler literally the week before the exam in Tampa onsite of the ABP. This was incredibly inconceived and has since been changed.
 
I think they still have a review session the week before the exam, in Tampa. I got a flyer in the mail which seemed to suggest they had 4 review sessions (october in tampa, feb or march in LA, April in Philly, May in Tampa).

I still haven't decided what to do myself. If I do take a review course it will be the CP part only, not worried about the AP.
