Are the Career Step Medical Transcription courses hard?

I just enrolled at CS to take their MT courses. I heard you have to pretty much graduate with "high honors" to be able to find a job once you've graduated. How hard are the courses?

If you have to ask that, you shouldn't do it!

If you did well in English and science in school, you may not find MT training to be terribly difficult. Once you figure out how the words are put together, medical terminology really isn't that bad...it just looks hard. LOL

Also, if you have good computer skills, that will help a lot. Good luck!

If you can spell, read, put together sentences, have some good computer skills, and work hard, you can do this. If you aren't motivated, though, don't bother. It will take some determination and perseverance. I graduated recently and I have some real possibilities for employment coming at me!

I also graduated from CS and have found employment. I was an honor grad, but I really don't think that had anything to do with my finding a job. I'm pretty sure it has everything to do with how well you do on that particular company's own employment test. CS isn't easy, but it's worth it.

Ive been researching this field for months. I'd love to be a SAHM and would love a career, not a job. I know it'll take dicipline to complete the course but I know i can do it ... Im just scared there will be no jobs when I graduate! .. reviews are so mixed that I see. Im thinking of going to Career Step... I need to make a decision and stop "sitting on the fence"!
