Question

Your friend is studying to be a medical assistant and because she never completed her medical terminology course at a previous institution, she could not transfer any credits. Still she thinks she could easily test out of the course through a process called Advanced Standing. Is this possible?

Answer 1

false

Step-by-step explanation:

Unless specifically stated otherwise by a specific university, this is false. Advanced standing applies to previously completed courses/classes. Proof of the completed course/class is provided, analyzed, and then approved. Therefore, allowing you to transfer the credits to your current career so that you do not have to retake that course/class. Unfortunately, in this case, your friend would not be eligible for Advanced Standing since she did not complete the medical terminology course at the previous institution.
