A few months ago, my cousin took his medical technologist licensure exam. Luckily, he passed this time around.  It took him two years to finally settle the bet we have agreed on when he took his first licensure exam.  Me and my other cousins only joined in this betting game because he opted to skip his review classes and worked as part time laboratory assistant without our aunt’s permission.  It was our simple way of persuading him to take his review classes as we all knew that it will help him a lot during the exams.

After he failed his first licensure exam, he learned his lesson well.  He enrolled into review classes before taking his second licensure exam this year and it paid off really well. He got one of the highest marks and now one medical assisting school already called him for an interview barely a week after the results were published in a national newspaper.

Although it took him two examinations to be a licensed medical technologist, we were very happy that he is now a professional like all of us in the field of medicine and health. Kudos! Job well done!
