Re: I passed!

I received my results today and I passed too! Now I can start studying for my X-Ray stuff. Thanks to everyone that posts on this board, I discovered this board about 1 month into my schooling and so I was forewarned about the difficulty of the exam and to work extra hard to find a job. Funny but when I signed up for school I was told how much in demand Medical Assistants were and the employers were just waiting with open arms, lol.

Re: I passed!

Congrats to all of you who just passed the test. I am just starting my program in 2 weeks. I have already completed 2 classes online this summer.

I am going to our local community college. I am nervous and excited. There are jobs in the paper every week here in Cincinnati for Medical Assistants and I am seeing more and more how they want CERTIFIED assistants, which I think is great and will hopefully pay more!

Congrats again!

Re: I passed!

great job!
I take mine next month.
What book (if any) did you study from the most?
Did you take the practice exam they sent you, and did
you find that they actually DID ask questions on the exam that they said were not going to be on there (that were on the practice exam). Make sense??

Re: I passed!

I studied from the guide that they sent me from the AAAMA. I looked at the guide and said well, what isn't on here? LOL.

I studied long and hard because I didn't want to have to take it again and especially after having to wait a long time for the results. I just pretended I didn't pass the first time and gave it everything I had. I was in the 99th percentile and I easily studied over 200 hours to know everything I could possibly know. I do recall there being a LOT of administrative stuff on there.

Re: I passed!

Sybil,

Congratulations!!!

I have been on vacation, out in southern central Oregon, about 50 miles from civilization. We have had no services for about 2 weeks. I went into Lakeview Oregon, to get a tire fixed, and my cell phone went off as soon as I got service. It was a text from a classmate who had received her results, she passed too. I texted my daughter and asked her to check the mail, I had mail from AAMA too. It was painful but I completed our vacation and then came home to a stack of mail.

Wahoo! I'm certified to.
