Re:
It is accredited, or so it claims. I have aced the tests so far, but the tests are open book, so I still have some distance to go, especially learning to type well again and transcribing from dictation. That is next.
Time will tell if I get good at it!

I got a certificate in this too, and really enjoyed the coursework. Is your school accredited? I don't want to discourage you, but despite the fact that I aced every course, the fact that my school was not accredited hurt me in the end. Medical transcription companies are very picky about who they hire, no matter how good you are.
The flip side is that if you are good, you'll have a rewarding career for years. Medical terminology is fascinating.

I can see how this would be very difficult in the beginning! Trying to familiarize one's self with the terminology can be mind boggling! I have trouble pronouncing my medications! My blessings and keep at it, you will succeed! sam
