Re: BOR exam

From:Janay Zeck

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the photomicrographs were
terrible on the HTL.  (And this is some years ago now..) I had a red
fuzzy blur supposedly representing IHC ~ it would have been helpful if
the it was in focus seeing as I was asked what specific structure was
staining..  All the practical knowledge in the world doesn't help there..
