Serving Over 20,000 US Medical Transcriptionists

I wasn't saying that you were

In Reply to: I meant no harm, you seemed to need assistance...sm - -Jade

but I have also been told by a lot of people that you can get scammed...so I wanted to ask on here to see if anyone else had done something like this. They have never talked to us in class about interning for another 3 or 4 months after graduating.


I don't know I'm just getting really discouraged. It seems like after being in school for a year and half for medical transcription I should be able to start working when I graduate, not have to intern without pay. I mean this is a legitimate school that I go too, a real campus where I actually go and sit in class for four hours on Monday and Wednesday, and then take another class online. Does that not count for anything?

Jade I wasn't saying you were a scam, I just wanted to get some feedback from other members. I didn't mean to offend!

Well it wasn't
just one post in particular, I see it a lot.

Another thing, just because it doesn't come naturally, I still think it can be mastered, you just have to make a conscious effort. If I was to sit here and pound out an email to one of my friends mindlessly, it would probably not be the best example of correct grammar, but if I turn on my brain and pay attention to what I write, I can make sure there are no grammatical errors. So don't be discouraged if normally your emails need a decoder for someone to read, but just be mindful when you are on a professional board where future employers may see what you write. I know we can pretty much be anonymous on here, but I am sure there are ways to find out who it is!

Tulip thank you for your kind words!

She wasn't being rude in any way. Perhaps
Or learn to ask the Administrator or Moderators if you don't know what a board is for.

Wasn't 5.1 the last DOS-based WP program? Not sure...nm

I wasn't criticizing M-Tec. It is a very good
MT school. My point was, M-Tec notwithstanding, AAMT pronouncements should be viewed from the perspective of their championing of off-shoring. Simply having an endorsement from AAMT should not be the sole criterion for choosing a training program since AAMT does not have the interests of American MTs at heart. This should especially be borne in mind if (or possibly when?) poor training programs start getting AAMT "approval". M-Tec would be a fine choice for anyone considering an MT career. I was simply cautioning the OP not to base any choice of a school on AAMT endorsement. That's all. No need to get your knickers in a twist. Sheesh.
lol It wasn't for this case...the 1st answer was there

If the OP wasn't pulling our collective leg,
then heaven help us all.

You know, some of the companies that offshore their work use the excuse that they can't find enough qualified MTs in the US. If the above is any indication of what's coming out of some of the schools, their excuse is actually starting to make some sense to me.

As I said... heaven help us all.
I wasn't aware that I was misleading anybody with my post.

Did you have a bad experience or are you just going by what other people have said? 


OP wasn't asking about caps in diabetes mellitus

rather asked about if the word *type* after diabetes mellitus (type 1 or 2) is initial capped.  *S*

I wasn't being nasty - quit reading between the lines
x - but do not think that you are just going to walk back into this like it's a walk in the park. It's not. Things have changed and it's not what it used to be and it is not where the money used to be.
