Glad I could help :) I know you will do great 😊

[@toyriedawson3215]

Thank you so much, very Helpful!

[@dauniestream]

I failed my exam 2 times and they both hardly had questions that are from the study guide... or even like similar to practice test. one of the question I remember they asked if you have $15 as account balance and copayment is $20 what is the minimum payment. And they didnt even mentioned about that in the study guide. a lot of the questions from clinical patient care which are general patient care, infection control, test lab procedures, phlebotomy, EKG total of 81. there's only 8 questions about ekg and 7 questions of phebotomy. 46 questions about general patient care... It seems that the NHA questions are changing each year. Because my friends didnt get questions like the ones I had.. they told me it was similar questions as what study guide material gave... and practice test. Which is hard for me to answer the questions sometimes. But i did notice they asked a lot about medication names. a little bit of CPR.

[@poo1697]

Did you ever pass???

[@anuogunnaike7142]

Which resource do you think helped the most

[@HamsaJavagal]

If I had to chose one of these resources I would recommend the reddit posts! Also, my new KZbin video talks about exactly what you need to know to pass the exam. Here is the link: kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZmXHh4CPl8mYn6c

[@cristinalosardo1855]

Hi! the reddit thread you shared mentions a lot more stuff than NHA does, do you feel that reviewing each module quiz and completing the NHA practice exams is not enough? I also saw the reddit thread had a practice exam on there, do you recommend I use that to study? Thx so much! Congrats on passing!

[@HamsaJavagal]

Hey! Great questions. I think the Reddit posts are a really good tool to use since some of these questions are exactly replicated on the exam (word for word). Hope this helps!

[@cristinalosardo1855]

Thanks so much!!

[@chariceweddle]

Where can I find the reddits?

[@farriyathalho7830]

Where do you get the content to study for prior to practice tests?

[@HamsaJavagal]

That is a great question! NHA has an interactive study guide (currently $62). I have also created 2 different courses (and revealed exam questions) for much cheaper. I hope this helps!

[@beatriceines3456]

Would you say there was more focus on administrative or more clinical concepts?

[@HamsaJavagal]

Definitely more clinical related questions. For admin assisting, it was mainly some insurance questions. If you have more questions on what is on the exam check out my other video! I basically say what is on the exam and give examples

[@beatriceines3456]

@@HamsaJavagal than you so so much this is so helpful

[@tyrelledavis828]

Heyy hamsa javagal I finished the program in May of 2022 and I took my test in July of 2022 and it was hard and I just gave up but I need more tips

[@demariawells1295]

Also did you purchase nha studying material ? I take the CCMA exam August 25

[@HamsaJavagal]

Yes I purchased the study guide and the practice exam bundle through NHA! However, I will say that it is not needed to pass the exam and there are plenty of other free resources out there!

[@demariawells1295]

@@HamsaJavagal ok great thank you

[@meownycole6153]

Hi love I wanted to see what program you did your ccma test with? Thanks!

[@HamsaJavagal]

Hey! If ur asking what course I took, I took the medical assistant course through Calhoun Community College. Then, I registered for the CCMA exam through NHA on my own and took it. Hope this helps!

[@chloewood6508]

where are her a anatomy Quizlet?

[@annaclayton1408]

Oh boy do I need help. I came across your video while looking up CCMA NHA exam prep. I didn't know what to look for in Quizlet to find your study set's so would you mind letting me know? I'm currently working at a hospital in Endocrinology at Front Office Registration and currently have my CNA. I wanted to obtain my CMA to take care of family as well as others. I'm an older student and it's a little hard to retain sooo much info. I'm currently taking an online course through Phlebotomy Career Training as well. Thank you in advance...I have also subscribed. 😊

[@HamsaJavagal]

I get what you are saying! It can be overwhelming at the amount of information on the CCMA Exam. Personally, I would recommend looking at the reddit posts specifically since there have continuously been on past (and future) exams. If you want more practice exams/questions, check out my course in the description of the video (way cheaper than NHA as well). It is a great way to learn and practice with questions from past exams. I hope this helps, let me know if you have more questions!

[@annaclayton1408]

@@HamsaJavagal Yes, this does help. I remember you mentioning Reddit so I will head over there to review that. I didn’t know if that was an “app” or there are posts on KZbin to look for? I’ll most likely go to the like you linked at the top of the comments section. Thanks again for what your doing to assist others. Since I’m working in healthcare I’d like to have more than the CNA that I have. Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

[@annaclayton1408]

@@HamsaJavagal I did get the Reddit app…just installed it. I wanted to ask if there is a specific NHA exam prep they have on there like KZbin? Thanks for recommending it…I have to wait until next week to purchase the one from you since I just had to pay outright for school 2 weeks ago…so needless to say it’s a lil tight for money right now. 😉

[@josephb4086]

How do you feel about U.S. Career Institute MA program? It's DEAC accredited and allows graduates to sit for the nha ccma certification.

[@wingyinlam9031]

Hi! Do you think instead of studying the whole textbook, studying the NHA exam guide and finishing the NHA practice exam are enough?

[@HamsaJavagal]

Absolutely! The NHA study guide is great and if you are looking for some practice problems you can check out my course (pinned in the comments) which includes 170 quiz questions and a full length practice exam for a fraction of the cost of NHA. All in all, text book reading isn’t required and probably has too much information than needed for the exam.

[@diamondc3119]

What school did you go through and was it online

[@HamsaJavagal]

I did the CCMA course through Calhoun Community College and YES it was all online. There was an optional externship (which would be in person if you choose to go - since it is hands on learning), but you do not need it to get a job.

[@patiencenti6208]

Hi how long do have to write the state Exam after medical assistant program thank you

[@HamsaJavagal]

I think after you take an accredited medical assistant course that allows you to sit for the exam, there is no expiration date for the amount of time you can wait before you take the exam (I’m not 100% sure though so don’t quote me on it!!). However, I would recommend you take it sooner rather than later as the content will still be fresh in your mind soon after the course. Hope this helps and good luck on your journey in healthcare!!

[@toryheartsdepp]

After taking my CPT they only gave me 2 weeks to study for the CCMA. My brain was still fried from studying for the CPT that I didn't studying the first few days. Time for me to cram for this exam!

[@HamsaJavagal]

You got this, take it easy, the reward will be great after all the hard work!!

[@go1d3n.nightmare]

I’m currently in the 2nd month of my 6 month CCMA program (classes every Saturday) and I’ve been stressing and worrying about this exam! I study little bits throughout the weeks but I definitely plan on really studying hard that last month leading up to my exam. Did you do classes for this or did you do an online program or what? Cause I’m curious as to how long your course was before you took the exam?

[@HamsaJavagal]

Hey! So I did an online CCMA 4-6 month program as well. However, based on personal experience, the course was way harder & more in depth than what’s on the exam. When i started prepping for the exam, I used the NHA study guide for content review (as needed) so that I only spent time reviewing what’s on the exam. Hope this helps!

[@Shantel_Inspires]

Am suppose to take mine on the 3rd of September

[@cwv9164]

How did you do?

[@jailanlanderos1925]

hello im going to school in the spring for MA and im not really finding much info on MA just CCMA. Do you think they are the same material to learn? because as in right now im going based your study guides and your exam tips! plz let me know asap thank you!!

[@rakibou8941]

How many hrs in the program

[@HamsaJavagal]

I’m not completely sure about the hours as it depends on the course you are taking. Usually it should take anywhere from 4-6 months (the one I took was this long). Hope this help!

[@tyaisajones8396]

Hi did you take your exam at home or did you go to a site?

[@HamsaJavagal]

I took mine at home! If you want more information about the online/at-home exam I recommend you watch my most recent video. I break it all down so you know what to expect :)

[@tyaisajones8396]

@@HamsaJavagal I took the aama exam and didn't pass, so I've been studying the nha study guide how did you know when you were truly ready?

[@HamsaJavagal]

@@tyaisajones8396 I have generally heard that the AAMA exam is much harder than the NHA exam. Firstly, you are never going to feel “fully ready” because of the amount of content that needs to be covered. I would recommend taking CCMA practice tests and aiming for a 78% or higher. Once you attain this score, I would say that is a good indication that you are ready for the actual exam. Hope this helps! Note: a lot of memorization is needed!

[@shawaiis2844]

You are a life saver ! I’m not sure if I should buy the NHA study guide with the practice test or if I should follow the topics and study from quizlet like you mentioned in your “everything on the Ccma exam” video. I have my test in the first week of September and I’m stressing out

[@HamsaJavagal]

Love to help out :) Personally, I am not sure if every test that the NHA gives is different. The quizlets, Reddit’s, and other resources I mentioned are from past exams. So the content does seem to repeat on every exam. The NHA study guide and practice exam may be a good resource but I wouldn’t say it is NEEDED to pass. Hope this helps!

@@HamsaJavagal I’m also confused if I should study on Reddit or the nha Because the study guide on NHA is expensive

Did u take notes while studying

[@HamsaJavagal]

I did take some notes on the concepts I struggled on most. I also created a “review” sheet with all these concepts I struggled with to review the morning of exam day. Everyone studies differently but I do recommend taking some notes on concepts you don’t understand or want to review later.

[@demariawells1295]

Thank you

I have a question for 17 modules/ chapters? how did you manage to study all that content within 1 week? How did you take notes? I am currently studying for this exam and I don't want to spend too much time studying for this. However, I am not a good note taker.

Hello !! I am studying to get a CCMA but I am not having the program x 6 month because I worked as a doctor on my country . So I decided study and take the exam .I am a little confused about this because maybe I have not been explained as well by the team of NHA . Is this ok ?

Do you think watching the videos just from Ms.K will help me pass or should I use more resources? I take my CCMA nha exam soon.

[@HamsaJavagal]

My advice would be, if you are getting the practice questions right from Ms. K's channel, you should be good to go. However, I would HIGHLY recommend going over the Reddit posts, because those questions will 99% sure be on the exam. Good luck with your studying !!
