BVNA Launches New Laboratory Revision App
Student and qualified veterinary nurses can now benefit from the new BVNA Laboratory App for iPhone and iPad.

The British Veterinary Nursing Association has joined forces with leading IT provider, AT Veterinary Systems, to produce a handy laboratory revision app for veterinary nurses.

Split into two sections, the app comprises a quick revision and a full revision option. The quick revision is a spot test of 20 multiple choice questions with a time limit for each question. Each score is recorded on the scoreboard to chart the user's progress.

The second section is a quiz of up to 110 questions that can be answered at the user's leisure, providing an in-depth review of laboratory processes in a veterinary practice.

All questions are randomly generated to reinforce every aspect of the subject in the user's mind and the layout makes it quick and easy to use. The app is also flexible and can be adjusted for any length of study period; for example, the full revision option enables the user to adjust the number of questions to answer at any one time.

If you are a veterinary nurse in training, perhaps with approaching exams or maybe simply wanting to test and refresh your knowledge, then this app is perfect for you.
