Join Jim Connely in this solo show discussing an article he found about clothing and body odor PLUS the NCLEX exam style questions in McGraw-Hill Education’s Connect Microbiology! 

The article on body odor can be found here: https://beautymatter.com/2019/08/could-probiotic-clothing-eliminate-body-odor/

Jim outlines how McGraw-Hill has questions in the following areas:

• Career Prep
• Clinical Application
• Test Prep 

NCLEX questions are key in Microbiology to prepare students for a career in nursing. Practicing for the NCLEX exam not only prepares students with the knowledge, but also the confidence for success on the exam. So, we’ve created the resources to help! NCLEX course-wide content for all Microbiology Connect courses. Questions written by a contributing Registered Nurse are modeled after the true NCLEX exam (they are not identical).
