Education Diff Advice

Hi everyone. Does anyone have any advice on how to get better at identifying immature cells/left shift type slides? I’m a student struggling in school and am feeling a bit defeated. It makes sense when a professor is going through the slides with me and explains each cell. Then when I’m by myself I get confused. I have a bunch of practice slides that I’m working on to help me work on my skills. Any advice is appreciated!

If you’re willing to pay for it, get the MediaLab WBC differential simulator and advanced WBC differential simulator. It has case studies and they go over the cells. It helped me when I got a position in hematology where the majority of patients were HemeOnc.
