I passed the CIS exam yesterday, and I wanted to say thank you for the practice exams. It really does help in showing where I need to have a better understanding of the topics in the HSPA/CIS book.

Hey hey! Passed my exam with ease & ended up using a lot from my flashcards, the videos I was provided with from The Sterile Guy helped me a TON! I have literally learned so much more that I didn’t know about sterile processing from my ultimate bundle. I 10000000017347493987% actually INFINITY recommend The Sterile Guy’s bundles, even just the flashcards will do wonders, but the ultimate bundle will legitimately save you & help get you even more ready for your exam. THANK YOU @TheSterileGuy for EVERYTHING!!
