VT1001 Registered Veterinary Technician Prep I

This course consists of weekly study sessions to help graduating students prepare to challenge their professional registry examination, the Veterinary Technician National Examination (VTNE). The content reflects the practice domains covered by the VTNE, currently set up as follows:  Domain 2. Surgical Prep & Assisting; Domain 3. Dentistry Procedures; Domain 5. Animal Care and Nursing; Domain 6. Radiography, Ultrasound; Domain 7. Anesthesia. It is recognized that acquisition of medical vocabulary is essential in answering many VTNE questions, as is proficiency in basic mathematical calculations. Students will review strategies considered helpful in taking multiple choice tests. Examples of typical RVT questions will be covered in this class. Questions the instructor considers “essential RVT knowledge” will be highlighted. It should be noted that the instructor never sees the actual paper RVT candidates write, but is presenting an “educated guess” on material likely to be on the exam. The Angoff method of scoring which the VTNE uses is explained.
