Hi,

I did this in 2005 and at that time all they required was to send your papers with the corresponding payment. No exams or anything like that.

Good Luck

Hi. I got my certificate as registered medical assistant last year. Go to their website and fill up the pre registration form and then they will evaluate your credentials and documents. No exams and no need for schooling.

hi everyone

thanks a million for all your reply

I still have a question I went to the website arma.com but in prequalification form they ask your SS number what is that?
should I say I meet the criteria or no?

Please help
thanks
