HELP MICRO (Angela J. Arndt)!?!?!

Hey! I bought the microbiology for dummies and it was much easier to understand than the excelsior/distance learning book. I just read that and made notes and I passed with a B. Havent heard of the Angela persons notes, but im sure if it covers the main micro information you will be ok! Make sure it covers all the important people involved with microbiology..... you will be asked about them and what they are known for.

From what I remember you will need to really know about: diseases signs and symptoms (important) and how they are transmitted, the people in micro, fermentation (not alot of questions but know the main process), stains (my question on that were not to deep), know the domains of bacteria, fungi, protists, viruses, know the tempatures that certain microbes grow in. There is more I cant remember all of it. I took my exam early this year and its hard for me to remember all the info. Hope some of this helps.
Here is a website I used to practice: http://microbiology.jbpub.com/microbes. Very helpful!

I am starting this one too! I am waiting on my cpne date and only have this one left to do! Let me know if you want to bounce some ideas off each other!

I have to say, I did the idiot's guide to micro, micro demystified, cliff note micro, and the text book. Read the text once, and the other books at least twice. Then used the text as reference for any more in depth questions I had.

Took it Oct. 21 and got an A

It was actually pretty easy. They all follow the same format, but in different levels of difficulty. The text is very scientific and dry. "demystified" and "idiots guide" were so much easier to read. Almost like interpretations of the text. And the cliff notes actually is the EC study guide without ANY filler.

And I was able to skip the chemistry portion of all the books, because it's not part of the EC exam.
