Applying for a new job is a job in and of itself these days. Is anyone else having this ?? All these tests on these job applications. They are sometimes hours long. Some of these test reports are HARD. They are harder than most I do now. I work for MW now. I don't really have time to go through all these tests for hours and hours for FREE. I'm thinking of just not doing it and forgetting about that particular application. One of them I really was interested in too but what if I do all ...
I have a dictator who dictates the same thing every time and it is fairly clear, but I can't verify it despite looking at a lot of ocular testing sites. I'm hoping someone here can tell me if I am understanding it correctly. This is in the context of saccadic eye movements, gaze-hold nystagmus, VOR to slow head movements, VOR to rapid head movements, vergence. It sounds like, "times 1 viewing" followed by "not tested," but once it was followed by "Patient saw mul ...
Has anyone actually been able to get through Inscribe's testing process? I have tried two times now and it sucks towards the end of the tests. I must be an IDIOT! Just curious.... ...
Why in the heck don't employers give you at least some basic instructions for a transcription test?
Some want you to format, others don't.
Some want you to edit punctuation, etc., others want you to transcribe verbatim.
It's very frustrating because they all seem to want something different, yet most don't bother to give instructions. It's like they expect us to be mindreaders!

for MT jobs that were ridiculous as in you basically need to be a doctor to pass, but I took a pretest just to take the coding course and it was ridiculous, as well. I sure felt like emailing them and saying nevermind, I would not consider taking a course that you have to be a doctor just to do coding!! Very frustrating!!!! ...
I got an invitation to test for a transcription company. This company does not do any doctor's notes, but they do other medical type work such as meetings, etc. On their site they have 3 tests and you can do all or as many as you feel comfortable doing. I downloaded one of the tests to check it out and it is almost 30 minutes long. I am ambivilent about taking such a long test with no compensation just for them to decide if I can do the work. What do you people ...
I know that the tests given by MTSOs are from mttest.com and that they are pass/fail tests. Does anyone know what the passing percentage is? One strike, you're out? How does this work?
Thanks. ...
I am so depressed. I guess I am trying to vent to you guys. I have taken 4 tests for companies and failed all of them. I didnt even get an answer back from one. I have been doing this for years. I feel like a dummy. I dont think there are any good companies out there that any one of us can trust. I havent found one. I have sent out my resumes to at least 25 companies I got through my school and on the internet. I also was soooooo scammed through Dit transcription. I just dont know what to ...
I am not that familiar with lab tests for sickle cell disease. Is it normal for the doctor in the CBC to state how many sickle cells are seen? thanks. ...
I cannot seem to pass these MT tests to save my life. I spent all last week testing. I've been informed I've failed four tests. I've passed Nuance and M*Modal's test, which is pretty much the same as a few other tests I've taken but failed. I've also taken two other tests that were not the mttest, but failed those as well. These tests have taken me FOREVER to do, as I have no footpedal and the dictators talk so fast that I have to stop ...
Just took a test with one company. Getting ready to take a test for another company and realized that the test company is one and the same. Does this mean the tests are the same? Would anyone know if the companys that use the same "tester' can access the same test? I just don't want to do it again and find out I wasted my time. Thanks! ...
Don't you just hate transcription tests that are TIMED and you start listening to the audio, and the audio is so bad that you just feel and know that you are going to flunk it?
What do you do, then? Do you continue and count your blessings or do you just exit?
I very much appreciate your answers. thanks! ...
When a doc dictates lets say "negative Kernig" versus stating "negative Kernig sign" will I transcribe it as "negative Kernigs" or "negative Kernig's" ...
Looking for the ADHI / book of style / transcription rules regarding drawer tests. I have found loads of posts on this subject, but they contradict each other. Does anyone know the "true" accepted format when discussing anterior and posterior drawer tests?
is it:
anterior-posterior drawer
anterior/posterior drawer
anterior and posterior drawer
Along these same lines, is there a generally accepted format for varus-valgus stress testing? hyphen, slash, or and?
