Re: Is there a way to get help paying for the CMA exam?

I'm sorry to hear about your situation. Thats very unfortunate.

I could be wrong about this but I have been told that some physicians will pay for your exam. If you can manage to get a job as an MA, and if the physician wants you to become certified, possibly they will pay for it. That's just what I hear from some people. I'm going to just go ahead and pay for it myself just to be on the safe side but I totally hear what your saying. Go on a few interviews and see what they say about your not being certified. You might find an office or two that don't mind. Good Luck, let us know how it turns out!

Are You Still In School? yes

Are You Working? no

Thanks, yes I will be graduating in December but wanted to take the exam soon after, I just thought maybe there were grants or something out there to help or something.
