Hey,
I am writing the HT exam early next year. I too ordered the BOR study
guide. ASCP did tell me on Monday that they would have more printed in
about a week. Alternately, The Michigan Society of Histotechnologists
has a HT/HTL Exam Study Workbook that I just received. It is well worth
the $18.  To order one:
Make check payable to MSH and mail with your address to:
MSH
c/o Bettye Amos
3816 Park Forest,
Flint, Michigan
48507
Phone: 810-257-9138
Also, the NSH website offers a list of educational materials at
http://www.nsh.org/education/studyaids.html
I haven't ordered any of those, so I can't comment.
Hope this helps.
Sharron
