Top 10 CMA (AAMA) Study Tips

Please take a few moments to review and print these study tips.

The following emails were received from recent MA graduates and we wanted to share them with all of you as you study and prepare to take the CMA exam.

"Just letting you know I took the test today and passed! Woot!

Good advice to students, really do those practice tests from the Exam review book, over and over until you get them. Some of those questions are actually on the test and it's the same format. And actually, the actual test questions didn't even get as specific at the review ones."

ALso, lucky (smart) me, I had printed out most of my chapter tests and finals. I went through all of it. Plus, I reviewed all the workbook questions. I found that it refreshed my memory. I hadn't forgotten too much since I actually knew the correct answers, but it just refreshed my brain and solidified the info that I had forgotten about. I only spent a couple of hours a day studying for two weeks before the test and it was enough. So not that hard really."

"Just wanted to drop a quick e-mail to say that I passed the CMA exam the end of May and I am still working at Franciscan as a regional float. I worked at a very busy family practise clinic for 3 months before my state exam and I think the experience there helped make the exam much easier. I thought there was plenty of time to take the exam and that the questions were easier than I expected."

"There are a few tips that I feel could help those studying to take the exam. The most important is to make sure that they feel very comfortable the terminology it will help narrow down the choices for a lot of the questions. Also study the administrative sections fully. As well as take plenty of practice exams using the cd."

Something fun!
