The only thing that my school offers is an externship. I am required to do 160hrs. of unpaid work before I can get my degree.

I will have my Associates of Applied Science Degree for Medical Transcription in March and am trying to get an early start on job searching.  Does anyone know of any good companies that will hire someone at entry level?  My main goal is to do it from home so that I won't have to pay for daycare and basically be working just to pay a sitter.  If anyone has any suggestions they would be greatly appreciated!


Venting and Searching

Okay, I need to vent.  I've been at this study now for 1 1/2 years and am SOOO ready to be done with it.  I have become so frustrated with the online course that I am taking.  I get the hint they are severely understaffed, having to wait sometimes 2 weeks to get one transcript graded and back to me.  Now, I am ready to submit a transcript that they require a 90% target accuracy rate on and I need to ask them questions.  I have submitted 2 e-mails and called them now 3 times, only being allowed to leave messsages which noone will return.  They grade everything with such inconsistencies that it's impossible to know what to do anymore.  I need to know from them if they will mark me off for adding headings to a HISTORY AND PHYSICAL EXAMINATION or mark me off if I don't add them (I have been marked off for both).  And the doctor has put blood work in a separate paragraph than the physical exam.  I know I will not get a 90% and they will mark me off either way, so I wanted to get some advice from someone at the school!!!  BTW, this is Allied and I know they are hated here on this board.  I am just trying to do the best with what I have gotten and they are making it increasingly difficult!!  Thanks!



6 months and still searching!
;) So, I've taken the ball into my hands, and I must say, it hasn't helped!

I've applied to numerous companies that were willing to hire a "noob" but heard nothing back from any of them.

Does anyone know of a few more I could look up?

I graduated with a 97% accuracy, so I'm not worried there. Let me know! Any help is appreciated!
I found a job after about a month of searching
I have read the threads with so many negative comments about Softscript, but they do hire new grads.


You might find something searching for the ABC+Z system. And

Keep searching the boards for the info you seek. And go thru an MT program if you haven't already

I've been searching for quality MT school- glad I found this Board

It appears that everyone can agree on M-Tec or Andrews School--by the way is that Linda Andrews and not Andrews/Holbrook?


I want to get started with training soon and I'm having difficulty deciding.  I've taken both their tests and they both seem like good choices.  Decisions, decisions...
