    Everyone taking the ABO in Columbia, SC.........

    ........on November 15, 2009??????

    I would love to put together a FREE study group. I am taking it myself so Im not expert...........

    If there is already something like this I would love to be a part it. I just havent heard of anything free. I live in Charleston, but I will drive where needed.

    If there isnt a group already is anyone interested in starting a group?

    Thank you,

    I am taking the both the abo and ncle in november. all I can tell you is there is no study groups that I know of. There are classes from state to state that have refreshers courses the week before the test. I don't feel the refresher course is worth it though. All I can tell you is that if you get the book 3rd edition systems for opthalmic dispensing it is a blue book that will help you somewhat. Hope I was able to help you

    There is a free ABO study guide that was written by Optiboard members.

    It has been very successful in helping people pass the test.

    Check it out at http://www.laramyk.com/education/ope...udy-guide.html

    The guide and study questions can be found here.
    A lack of planning on your part DOES NOT constitute an emergency on mine!

    study session

    I live in columbia and am free to tutor your study group on tues and wed evenings if you need assistance. I suggest you come with topics you need assistance with, rather than have me prepare an outline. At this point you should be aware of what you know and don't know.

    curious to see

    When my fellow South Carolinians get their results I'd like to see how we fare.
    So far we're one for one. I passed the ncle advanced.
