A medicаl lаb science student is wоrking in the hemаtоlоgy department making peripheral blood smears. The student is consistently making blood smears that are too long - the blood from the slide spreads all the way to the end of the smear, leaving no appropriate critical area in the feathered edge to evaluate cell morphology or count the differential. From the list below, which corrective actions should the student take to correct their technique? There may be more than one acceptable answer; choose all that could be correct.
