Well I too have been selected for the beta test-sm

I am absolutely thrilled about this test and once I have 2 years acute care experience I will write the CMT as well.  To me it is very well worth the $95 US to write the test, even the beta test.  This is something that I would like to achieve. 


No, it is not for everyone.  No, not everyone wants to spend $$ to take a test. We all have different ideas of what is right for us.  For me I want to have those letters behind my name.  In a couple of years I would like to trade them in for the CMT.


I know that there are many here who dislike AAMT and are stongly opposed to many of the things that they are doing but I have got to tell you I have gained so much by being a member of AAMT and especially the Online Chapter of AAMT. 


If you don't like the fact that there is offshoring going on well that is too bad...it is here and it is probably here to stay.  What we can do is offer credentially, such as the RMT, for those in other countries as well so that the can be required to meet a certain level of education and training.  I know I gonna get yelled at here for this one, but this is my opinion.


 


I think it's nuts that it's still in beta test but we still would have to PAY to take it. sm
If I'm helping YOU develop your product, I should not be paying! When game developers need people to beta test their games....the game company PAYS THE TESTER!  AAMT is absolutely out of their minds.
Anyone else get an email from aamt about REGISTERED MT beta test?
Seems pretty stupid to me.
Are you not going to elaborate???

Can you elaborate?
Please
Can you elaborate on something for me? sm
What do you mean it will soon be over? Are you talking about the new pay structure or is there something I missed?

Thanks :-)
Please elaborate
You are such a fat imbosil! DUH!

Clean the slobber off your screen and adjust your bifocals you geek - nobody knows what the heck you are talking about.


Are you scared little Miss Admin might remove your post or what.

Go back to GEEK SCHOOL - LOSER!
Can you please elaborate...
What exactly is your question?
Elaborate?
Can you please tell me what SmokeAway is?  Is it a pill?  Patch?  Gum?  I really need to get someone to be repulsed (as the poster below mentioned) by cigarettes and smoke.  Also, is it expensive?  I would really appreciate some more info . . . I'll try anything to get him to stop.  Thank you very much. 
Can you elaborate? (sm)
Can you explain in more detail how you "settle" an account? I've heard of that but don't know how it works. Thanks.
to elaborate . . .
Sorry, I didnt' read your inside message the first time. I would say it depends on you - are you the adventurous type? I have a friend who lived in Paris for a year and hated it - the people were rude and anti-American. You might want to look into how Italy regards Americans !!
Could you please elaborate on this?
I would LOVE to be able to set up to work without a footpedal, especially on my laptop, but I have no idea how I would use hotkeys to do this. Please share!
I'd like to help you..Please elaborate.

Please Elaborate??
Thank you :)
Could you elaborate on what that is? nm

Soon to be exCMT, please elaborate why
you would not recommend AAMT CMT to MTs.
Could someone elaborate on what this really means.
Electronic Medical Record could cover a lot of territory.

What is the point and how is it done?
Please elaborate on your question.
.
The RMT is just in beta now
and is meaningless, in any case. Very few employers care whether MTs have a CMT or RMT or whatever. Even fewer even know what a CMT is, and it's a sure thing no one's heard of RMT. The whole certification thing is simply a power grab by AAMT. Their goal is to sponsor legislation in every state that will force every MT to be certified to be employed. Since the AAMT is the only organization offering "certification", guess who will benefit from the whopping fees they will charge to take the test?
re: beta
Could someone who is computer literate please explain this "beta" stuff to me and what it means? Thanks !
It's a test in progress to measure what MTs know and what type of test to give for the SM
different levels of MTs.  It's over $90.  That's a lot of money to pay to someone who is giving these tests for research as to what type of testing should be done for the different levels of MT.  The AAMT will probably take the results and make a test that they can give in India or the Phillipines or some other foreign country. 
tuning fork test: Is it about a hearing test? .See inside
A whisper is about 20 dB
Loud music (some concerts) is around 80 to 120 dB
A jet engine is about 140 to 180 dB

Hope I could help
Could you elaborate? Are these people recruiting, or what? - nm

what is this beta-thing...

RMT Beta Exam
How many of you are taking the beta exam for the RMT credential? Are you planning to take the final version after beta testing, or will you not take it at all? I'm curious. I received email notice that they have openings until June 1st. Should I bother? I know that many companies ask whether or not we are certified, but do you think it will come to their asking if we are an RMT also? Any and all opinions welcome. Thanks!

I work as a beta tester and they pay me to do it.

I don't believe anyone would pay the 90-somethng bucks to do a beta SM

test which is practically useless. 


I tested the beta version
I enjoy using the software. I work in InScribe over half the day and have tons of shortcuts in there. Until now, I could not use those shortcuts in other programs. I imported the InScribe shortcut file to Ditto and now I use those shortcuts in WordPerfect and Word. The shortcuts work in e-mail, also. The pop-ups are not annoying - they go away after a few seconds if you do not respond to them. You can do functions with it, also. I have not tried whole blocks of text. For me, it's worth the price. I think you can download and try it before purchase.
Not a medical typing test but this website can test you..

It's called www.typingtest.com


Atleast it will give you an idea.. Sadly, I had to take it twice before I passed it LOL


Why would they do a microalbumin test when she has the period? A lot of test s will come out wrong

Neer's test is a shoulder impingement test

Don't think that has to do with the knee.  How about "bucket handle tear" of the knee?  Never heard of Neer having anything to do with the knee. 


Beta testers needed for MPLite

The beta testing for MPLite has been going well.  Phase 3 of the beta testing will begin on Wed or Thurs of this week.


We are soliciting 2 or 3 additional volunteers for this final phase of beta testing, and anticipate this phase to last no longer than a week.  Volunteers should be experienced working transcriptionists, but not so busy that they don't have time to read the help file, and set things up in MPLite.  We need the testers to actually work in the program, and not just look at it.


Testers will receive MPLite free of charge, and all subsequent releases of MPLite free of charge.  If you have the interest and the time to assist us, please send an email to support@mpword.com


Most likely, MPLite will be a the most popular program we have ever produced.  For a preview of it, see our website:

Best wishes,


Vann Joe


Beta is usually a program that is in the development stage
where lots of people use the program to test it out to help make it better and fix all the bugs before the final release.
U love beta fish? Aren't those the ones that kill

I remember my exhusband always had Japanese beta fish when we were married.  As I recall, if my memory serves me well, these specific male fish impregnate the female fish and then when she has the babies, the beta (male) squeezes all life out of the mom and kills her after she has the babies.  Just the idea of this made me hate this type of fish 4ever. 


Just one person's opinion though!  No flaming please! *LOL*


Henry's such a cute name, and I love beta fish
:)

You really should not be asking for help if this is a test sm
If this is a test for school or employment, it really should be done by you. It is not a fair test if someone else does it for you.  If this is not a test, please clarify and maybe people will help, but I think it is cheating otherwise.
test, this is only a test. nm

If this don't work, I'll quit.


If this is just a test then (sm)
why don't you just pick something...like @@@ or ??? or *** or something like that...leave it for where you find it inaudible, and when you send back your test just tell them. You could do ___inaudible___...anything. Just let them know when you send the test back. If you were actually working, then you'd go by the account specifics for how leave a blank, but for a test, just pick something appropriate and let them know.
We have to test because there have been....sm
too many times that people claimed they were transcriptionists, or could do a certain work type, only to find out they couldn't and were bluffing.  Testing is the only way to tell if an applicant has any knowledge or not.  Resumes don't always tell what their true skill level is. 
That's the best way for a co to test you because they never know if someone sm
is having someone else take a written test for them. The best way to test and just as accurate as mega transcription tests is oral phone testing. That way, it comes from what is in the person's head of what they know
