Has anyone taken HCC146 medical terminology for healthcare workers? I need this for the EVIT program. I am planning on taking it with Rio Salado online but I am wondering what to expect? How difficult was this class? I am trying to figure out if I will be able to juggle it right now. TIA for your responses. :loveya:

Dec 8, 2008 I just wrote something but I think it was all too confusing so I'll try again.You have to read several chapters a week and there is 1 graded "quiz" per week on the terminology in the chapters you were assigned.After the 3rd week you have the mid-term which is like 3 or 4 quizes of stuff on all 10 or 11 chapters you read.The good news is that it's all at-home, so while it's important to know everything for the sake of your career, nothing is stopping you from checking your book to make sure you are right.. heehee.You have only 1 chance to take the quiz after you open it. Don't open the quiz unless you are READY to take it!It's do-able, a lot of stuff to memorize though!

Glina 269 Posts Dec 9, 2008 I took this class recently with Rio, and I had to go to the testing center for the final. However, final had all the questions from quizzes and a few from the last chapters that you have not bee tested on. It was super easy and I was done in 10 minutes.

Ready2Help 39 Posts Specializes in NICU. Dec 10, 2008 I took it online this summer and it was really easy. I did have to take the final at the testing center, but I think maybe missed one. It's just a repeat of what you've already done. I also suggest printing out the quizzes and looking over them to study for the final.
Hausfrau 197 Posts Specializes in CNA. Dec 11, 2008 Wow, you guys had to take the final at the testing center?? I wonder why I don't have to... perhaps it depends on the instructor..
