Ms. K! I passed my medical assistant exam yesterday. Your videos were my ONLY form of studying. I never went to Medical Assistant school but I've been working as a x-ray tech / medical assistant for the last 13 years. Now I'm finally certified! Thank you for all that you do! Your videos are amazing. I pass with a 436!
Oh wow that’s awesome… congratulations 🎉
Hey there. Can you share tips and tricks on which to study more? What’s in the questions? Do you have to do essay as well? Or is just multiple choices?
Congrats
Thank you for sharing I feel even more encouraged to get back into my studying
Oooh wow yu did that sis
Hey Ms K. I passed my exam with a 431 !!! Thank you for all you do ! ❤️❤️ your videos really helped so much ! But everyone else if you see this ! It is sooooo important to study EVERYTHING ! and make sure to READ THE QUESTION bc it can get tricky. Congrats to everyone who has passed and good luck to everyone that is about to take it. you can do it !!! 🤞🏾🤞🏾
Awesome congratulations 🎉
And thanks for sharing the importance of STUDYING!
Congrats Stephanie. I take mine in Nov. and I am scared!
Congrats boo
Hi Ms. K, I wrote the RMA exam today 8/25 and passed with a score of 80. Thanks for allowing me to troll you all over the web. Also, i came across some questions that you taught us, specially the insurance, CPT, ICD-10-CM codes, positions, root words, OSHA, HIPAA.
Thank you MS.K you are a rockstar. I lived, breathed, ate, slept, dreamt and wake up with your videos. Studied content, content, content. Thank you for all your hard work and thorough teaching.
P.S. I am not going anywhere, I'll be there for all your new videos. My next challenge is EKG & Phlebotomy Tech.
Veronica
Hey congratulations I take mine again next month .I tool it the first time and made a 68😢 but I got this 😊
I passed with a 481! Thanks for your videos they did help a lot!
Wow excellent score!! Congratulations 🎉
What did you study?
I have been watching your exam prep videos, they have been SO helpful. I just took my second practice exam on the NHA site and got a 96%
I have 4 more available to tighten up my knowledge. I’m feeling much more confident and recommended your videos to all my classmates.
Awesome! I’m looking forward to hearing back when you pass :)
I'm also studying for the NHA exam and trying to do an CMA course online. I also have the CCMA Study Guide from NHA. What did u feel helped the most? I'm an older student and need all the help I can get. Thanks in advance and Congratulations🎉
Taking my CCMA exam in an hour!!! I'll let you know how it goes. I watched all your CCMA and CMAA religiously. Thank you for making these videos
🙏🏾❤️
How’d it go?
@@JB21- It went great! I scored a 449!
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK Thank you SO MUCH for these videos! I tested last Wednesday, 8/31, and passed the CCMA exam with a 449! I followed all your tips and tricks, went through the entire NHA study guide, as well as watched both your CCMA and CMAA videos. :) Listening to your detailed explanations really helped, and I became familiarized with so many different concepts/key words thanks to your videos. (I'm an auditory/visual learner) It was my first time testing and I was so nervous because my new MA job's salary was contingent upon passing!
You're an absolute gem!
@@aavil97 congratulations 🎉🎊!! I’m really nervous lol does the CCMA. Have clinical and MA questions ? That’s what I’ve been confused about
Know basic lab tests and your way around the lab.
Yes, Katerina, thank you for adding this!
New subscriber here I’m starting my CMA journey in the next couple of months . I’ll be applying for my Student Aid after holidays. I was a licensed hairdresser for years now I’m changing up. Thank you for these videos .
Hey! No prb. I wish you the best on your journey 😊
I watched this video before i went to write my exam and went over all that you mentioned and guess what I came across everything you mentioned. Thank you, thank you, thank you, I appreciate you more than you can ever imagine.
Veronica
I always miss ur lives but always check to see when u have videos out. I start school in 2 weeks!
Wow you’re already watching these vids and you haven’t started school yet?? That’s awesome. You’re gonna do so well because you’re getting a head start 🙌🏾
As far as getting notified when I’m live, make sure your notifications are turned on, by hitting the bell beside the ‘Subscribe’ button. Btw, I’m planning on going live next Thursday evening at 9pm EST
I really appreciate this video. I have 7 weeks until my exam and I’m really starting to focus more on studying. I still have stuff to learn in class such as EKG. I did take my first practice exam off the NHA website yesterday just to see where I’m at before studying and to get an idea where I’m struggling at. I had a sticky note next to me the entire time and I wrote down things I came across that I didn’t know. There ended up being a lot I still needed to learn: Codes, Lab Results, Insurance Fundamentals, Letter Structures, etc. I scored 70% and saw some questions that you’ve gone over before in other videos. I’m nervous for sure and I feel overwhelmed but I’m trying. I really want this certificate.
70% is a good score considering there were a lot of things you still hadn’t learned yet. You’re doing great by getting a head start so I’m confident you’ll do fine when that time comes ☺️
I love this channel !!!
Thank you a lot !!
I take my exam next week and I’m so nervous but I have started watching your videos and definitely has help more than many other vidoes I’ve tried ❤️🙌🏼
Hi, Priscilla ☺️ So happy to know these vids have been helping! Let me know when you pass (because you will) 🙏🏾
How it went?
Thank you!!!!! I will continue to follow and watch your videos
I’m on practice test number 3 with my exam in two weeks 🙏🏽🙏🏽 been a long time coming
Used your videos to study for my ccma test and passed first try wit the equivalent of an 87!
Awesome! Congratulations 🎉
Hey Ms. K I am in the administrative medical assistant program and I am having a hard time with the terminology so a video going over the medical terms would be a big help
Hey, Bionca! Sure, will do... already have it on the list
This video came at the perfect time ☺️
Glad to know ☺️
Where can I find the study guide for CMA ? I tried looking on AACMA
@Horus Amun I’ve always believed CCMA is not for all but studying, you need God’s grace to pass
People keep talking about James all over UA-cam, he must be a very awesome help
@@tomswilliamson9395 Yes you’re correct but remember heaven helps those who help themselves, try studying if you can’t study then get yourself a good help
CCMA might seem so tough to pass but studying very hard is a very vital skill to win trust me
@@maryjane5370 Everyone has their own way, James worked for me
I needed this - thankyou ❤❤❤
Thank you very much for what your doing to help us ALL become a better MA. You mentioned Quizlet on here, which I have. Your right, there are soooo many study set's on there that people have put on themselves. Would there be a particular set that you would recommend studying? Also, do you offer "paid sessions" where someone completely new to studying for this could do? I'd be interested. Thanks again!
Anna
Hey, Anna! I don’t think I have any particular quizlets saved in my account but I can check and share them. And yes I do offer one on one sessions. One second, I’ll post the link here.
Here’s the link: calendly.com/thinkinglikeavirtuouswoman/30-minute-1-on-1?month=2023-01
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK Ok thank you very much for the link. I'll definitely be booking a session with you because with me being older...I need all the help I can get to ensure I'm able to absorb as much as I can before the exam. I'll be in touch and have the link saved. Have a great rest of your weekend!
They have the new AI quizlet (I think it's with the paid version) where you upload notes (I uploaded my class ppts) and it makes everything for you. It's very very helpful.
I have the perfect study guide for this with alot of questions / answers from the test
Hi :) Are you able to send the study guide
May I also see the study guide?
@@shesjustniy434 yesss what’s your email
@@beatriceines3456 yes what’s your email love
@@jomayracolon7077 THANK UUU
i want to say a million thanks.....i passed my certification today..
Awesome ‼️ Congratulations 🎉
Thank you!!! 🙏🏼
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Thank you for these informations was very helpful have a question is there abbreviation included of terminology in the exam
You’re welcome… Yes, and some common abbreviations that you will see is CXR, MI, CHF, TID, BID, QD, QOD, QID, NPO, and PRN just to name a few. So make sure you are familiar with abbreviations as well.
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK OMG thank you sooooo much 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I am a new subscriber and I plan to take my CMAA exam and I am really nervous and am lacking confidence as far as if I'll pass. I'm taking the practice tests repeatedly but I'm not sure if that's good enough.
Hello again im watching your videos and practicing are very helpful i have a question please im taking my test in December so im really frustrated on the medical terminology i have to study body parts and terminology and what else in the book i need to study diseases too? Please help me thank you so much
Yes, make sure you also know some diseases and disorders of each body system.
Hey Ms.K! I’m new here and I’ve heard a lot about how you’ve impacted other medical Assistant , I’m trying to get my ccma with NHA and I’m stuck on where to start studying could you help me on what you think is best?
Hey! So I think you should get both the practice tests and the study guide. But if you can only get one, get the practice tests for sure. Take your first test as you get 6 altogether and see where you are. Once you see your weak areas, go to those areas on the study guide and review those. Another way you can go about it is just simply going through the entire study guide first and then start taking your practice tests. And every time you take another practice test and see your weak areas, go back to that section of the study guide to review again.
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsKthank you
Personal mexical ote book
i retake my CMA exam in July and want to start studying early. I have the online study guide on the NHA website that I had to purchase myself. Should I use that and also my textbook and study guide book?
Hi do you mean you’re taking the CCMA? I am asking because you mentioned the CMA but that’s not the exam that NHA administers. But to answer your question, I would focus more on the study guide for the exam you’re taking, not your school’s textbook. Also, make sure you purchase the practice tests because they are essential for preparing you for the actual exam even more than the study guide.
Hi I wanted to ask, how would you study all the category’s for the AAMA CMA exam? for example there are 3 main category’s (Clinical competency, General and Administrative.) Each category has several sub topics. How would you organize and study the sub topics? i’m having a hard time making a weekly study schedule to cover all sub topics. I want to study 1hr and 30 min a day 5 days a week but I don’t know how to make a plan.
Hi, you would need to Google the test plan for that exam. It’s free so if you Google “AAMA CMA test plan” it’ll come up and it will show you an outline.
I’m new here and I’m very nervous about taken my exam
Hey, is normal to be nervous. I hope all goes well with your test 🙏🏾❤️
Hello, I am going to purchase the study guide. Do you suggest the online study guide or the printed study guide that NHA offers?
I prefer the online study guide and I believe my students do as well. However, I know that some people like to physically have the book in their hands. If it doesn’t matter, I would recommend getting the online study guide so you could easily navigate through it. Also you could do so much with it like create flashcards and they have quizzes within the study guide as well
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK Thank you, I purchased the online. I like it. You're content is the same as the study guides NHA I see. Thank you so much for all this information you provide us with.
@@sotoalexandra57 no prb 😊
I have a month before my test and I feel like I don’t remember much at all. If there a way I can relearn everything by then?
Yes you definitely can… I’ll be going live tomorrow evening at 5pm EST for a study session if you’d like to join.
I have no clinical experience once so ever so if I study and get my certificate, will this help me get clinical experience or will I only work in a office setting?
Hi, are you saying you went to school for medical assisting but have no experience? Or are you saying you haven’t even gone to school for medical assisting?
Hi Me K how are you doing today
Hey, Veronica! I’m well how are you?
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK, I am well Ms. K I passed my exam (AMT) today. I wanted to get over with exam before I said anything to you today. Thank you
Ms.K, so your college offers free tutoring?
To its students, yes. As instructors, we are to tutor our students as needed.
Hi Miss K. I have been working as a medical assistant for 13 years but now I’m out of job and everywhere I go, they’re asking for a medical assistant certification. I want to sign up to U.S. Carrer Institute for an online self study course and very soon take the test. But I’m a little confused about the CMA, CCMA and CMAA tests. Which one should I take in order to work and not have any issues in the future?
Hey! I have a video that breaks down the differences between the tests which I’m linking here. But in short, I always recommend people in your situation to take the CCMA because it will most likely be easier for you since it’s a clinical certification and you’ve been working in the field all these years.
ua-cam.com/video/NJ_1A-HxIr0/v-deo.html
Also, have you ever considered becoming an MA instructor? You definitely have the experience. I’ll be posting a video later today or tomorrow about this. Make sure you check it out if it’s something you’ve thought about.
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK
Thank you so much for that information my dear 🫶🏼 I called the U.S. Career Institute and they told me after completing all 4 courses and passing with 70% or higher, then I can take the CNA exam. I’m about to watch your video about those tests, thanks in advance for posting these videos and helping so many of us out ❤️
Also about teaching: as a medical assistant, I am amazing. But as a teacher, I suck lol I can’t really teach, but I can work 12 hour shifts back to back lol maybe I’m a little weird 🙈
Hiii Ms. K. I just called US career college and confirm the information about the exam and I misunderstood them it is CCMA exam through NHA. You were right and thank you soooo much again for all you do for us strangers 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️
@@americausa5448 Nope it’s not weird at all… teaching isn’t for everyone so I get it. I wish you the best! Let me know when you past your test 🙏🏾
Is this one official NRCMA
Iam in My last courses of this program and I'm struggling
Ok your comment was 10 months ago any change did you pass
My school is gone where do I go for help now
Hey, I’m not sure if you’ve seen my recent comments but I have told you a couple of times to email me KHeartCPR@gmail.com
When I asked my school what should I do?
They responded just to study my book again. That’s all
Ask them how they can help you pass? At my former school we had study sessions just for students who were having a hard time passing. They should def provide some type of support.
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK that what exactly I asked but they told me sorry
@@MN-ru9uy I’m sorry I looked too fast and misread your comment… I thought you were asking me what to do 🤦🏾♀️
So they offer no help at all? I’m sorry to hear that smh…
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK yes no help at all. Just we need to study unfortunately
Study everything Ms. K is teaching, she is sooo right on point, I came across alot of the questions she quizzes us with and that really set me up for success.
I did practice test with AMAA, AMT, NHA, Quizlet (becareful with quizlet) cause your answers maybe right and they'll give it to you wrong.
I start in October is it wise to start learning before I start school?
I don't want you to be overwhelmed so I'd say don't focus on the exam videos yet but you can definitely watch some clinical videos and even anatomy and terminology. Just don't overload yourself.
I woul# ifi could
I was working 50-60 hours a week and missed the deadline to recertify. I went to MA school in 1989! I have to take the test before November 1, 2022.
Oh wow okay… do you have the study guide and practice tests?
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK No. Watching multiple refresher videos. I've worked for the past 33 years in internal med, general and family med, cardiology, and orthopaedics and sports medicine. I've worked in lab and I'm also a personal trainer and sports nutritionist. Praying for a good outcome. I have to certify with the AAMA.
@@teresahunt5521 Let me know how it goes!
@@MedicalAssistingwithMsK I will! Thank you!
I wish I was able to afford the study guide for NHA CCMA, I’m only able to afford the test itself nothing else. Money is tight currently.
I understand… just take advantage of as many free resources as you can. If you go to the Smarter MA website they have a free version of the practice test you can take as well as a couple of videos. If you are not already, you can join my medical assistant group on Facebook called the medical assistant lounge, and you will find some study material in the files section.
I can't get unto amt I forgot the web@ight
