The AAMA should be mailing a practice test to you if you signed up to take it. If you didnt get it, contact them and request one. I think you can even get one on Amazon or someplace cheap but don't quote me on that. I made a post about my experience taking it in Oct of last year, see previous post RE: certification.

Hi. I'm scheduled to take the RMA exam this Friday @ 8am and I was looking to see if there was a way that someone who has previously taken the RMA exam can send me ideas of the type of questions that are on the actual exam or the sample test. I have been out of school since 2/2007 but have been working but as a Medical Receptionist, then for 3 months I began working in the clinical side but am not currently working due to me being in my 3rd trimester now. Please someone help me out I been like crash studying but need an idea of what is on the test. Thanks SOOO much

what association are you going to take the exam with, because i've contacted NHA about taking the exam and was told because I haven't worked in the field as a MA in a year that I would have to take a refresher course in order to take the certification exam. I've finished in 2007.

I write exam questions for the California Certifying Board. They will give you a packet on all the area's that you need to study for. Doing practice exams is ok, but you really need to know the core material. If you do not understand that it will be much more difficult to do well. I would suggest looking for a review class or review book and using the practice exams as supplemental and as a way to find out what areas you need more study in.

My school recommended a couple that you can by but they are super expensive! Try your local library...they should have some prep books there. Also review from your own texts especially the things you had difficulty with. Good luck!

We had copies of the official RMA Preview Exam handed out to us in my class in 2005. This is the one that costs almost $20 if requested to AMT. I took the time a few years back to copy it onto my computer, and I copied it very carefully, and since then I have mailed it out to countless people. This was just to help them and save them a few dollars. Most people taking the test are very nervous and I try to assure them the actual test is not that difficult and that some of the preview questions WERE on the actual test, at least when I took it they were.
Maybe it wasn't "legal" to do what I did but I did NOT post the entire test on this site, but just offered it for FREE to anyone who wanted it. Going through an MA program and taking the certifying test costs enough. I was just trying to be helpful.

Linda, I am sure you had nothing but the best intentions, no doubt. I do not know any exact details, nor have ever seen what was copied or emailed and not being a lawyer I really don't know whether it infringed on anyone's rights; however as the forum admin I have to think of everybody who comes to the forum and there are certain things that I'd rather steer clear of. Giving advice and speaking about your own experiences publicly here in the forums is one thing. Using this forum to solicit email contacts and promising to send people unapproved printed materials is one of them. While we do not care what you do on your own time and what you give and share with others on your own time, we don't want this forum to be used as a springboard for activities that we have no control over. I am sure you understand.

There is nothing wrong with asking information about the national or state exam! We are all hear to help each other!

I know by looking at my book that its not going to help me pass the national or state exam.

I have contacted the national office as well as the state office and paid for there version of the practice exam.

One thing I have learned from being a good EMT is that we are all hear to help each other be the best we can be.

I know I want to hear from anyone that has just taken the NATIONAL OR STATE EXAMS how they did! Lets hear from everyone ! No need to keep things to themselves!

I know for the EMT national test NREMT the test stops at 70 questions if you passed. What is the MA test like? So far since starting class it seems like MA training is below the curve as far as training goes?

Just so we are clear I believe EMT is below MA so I expect alot more from MA school! Not happening so far. I am in a great training program as well. so thats not a excuse.

So far the MA program seems to be outdated as far as study material goes and the test taking system unless they use the JB LEARNING online. Any suggestions out there? Would love to hear about some better test prep programs out there?

I agree with Fresh, otherwise, what good would this entire forum be? It costs me a lot of money and effort just to keep it up and running and as stated near the very top, its purpose is to reach out, help and share ideas.

To clear up and avoid any possible misunderstandings: by all means, everybody please feel free to talk, discuss, review, share tips, and rant and rave about any and all medical assisting and related certification exams. Chat away about how many questions there were, what you liked, what general topics were quizzed, what was easy, what was challenging, etc, etc, etc.

What I will not tolerate is when somebody spams this forum with unapproved advertising and links, makse false promises, swears, slanders, gossips, uses foul language and any activities that might violate 3rd parties rights, such as trademarks and copyrights. As a web developer, forum admin and creative writer I have an interest and obligation to uphold and insist on certain rules and these happen to be mine. Very few will be ever affected... over all this forum is open to everybody and anyone and so far it has worked out wonderful.

Hi,
I just took the RMA exam today, and I have to tell you that from the 206 Q none of them were in the AMT study book. I passed the test so I feel very lucky, it was very difficult. I was very disapointed because I felt the RMA test was not fare, they focused too much on the administrative area and I felt like it has nothing to do with the MA profession.
