Synopsis

With imminent changes in educational requirements for athletic trainers looming, new review materials will be required to assist students preparing for the new exam. This book is geared to the student who wants to be successful in taking the athletic training certification exam. This book is broken into three parts, with part 1 describing test procedures, administration and scoring together with strategies to help control a stressful test environment. Part 2 describes the structure of the exam covering written, practical and simulation components. Part 3 offers hundreds of questions designed to simulate real test conditions. Questions for the written and practical exams are presented in multiple choice and yes/no formats. The written simulation questions provide students with training situations requiring appropriate decision making solutions. Written questions are fully referenced and documented allowing students to review subject areas as the need arises.

Since she became certified as an athletic trainer in 1980, Lorin has put her knowledge and experience to good use by helping numerous students study for and pass the National Athletic Trainers Association (NATA) certification exam. Not only has she served as an examiner for several NATA exams, which has given her insights into common errors students make on the test, but she also has taken numerous certification tests herself and learned firsthand about test-taking strategies and skills.

Lorin received an MS in education from the University of Michigan in 1981.

She earned the NATA Distinguished Service Award in 1999 and in 2000 and became a certified athletic administrator (CAA).

In addition to being a frequent speaker at NATA national clinical symposiums, Lorin is the author of several articles on injury prevention. In 1994 she became the first woman, as well as the first high school athletic trainer, to be elected president of District IV of NATA.
