OVERVIEW
First off, we're not here to introduce you to some radical new way of studying. Even if we had one, now wouldn't be the time. You've gotten this far somehow - something has worked. So why would we now tell you to throw it all out the window? This isn't the time to be testing new writing styles, starting yoga classes to calm your nerves or taking strange pills someone offered you. We need to stick to the basics! The basics work! Can they be boring and repetitious - yes. But we're going to take the things that have worked for you and make them count!
The RMR exam consists of -
Literary at 200 wpm
Jury Charge at 240 wpm
Q&A at 260 wpm
If our RMR Prep Program simply supplied you with plenty of high-quality dictation, that may be enough for a small percentage of you to prepare for the upcoming RMR exam. That's assuming it was used in a productive fashion. But without some kind of solid schedule and supervision, what are the odds of that?
Simply sitting at your machine and writing isn't the way to prepare. It's a great place to start, but it's taking a minimal approach to achieving your goal. So we've set up our program to cover all the areas you'll need to get a running start at the RMR exam.
With our program, you will receive a CD with every day's schedule, along with all of the study material you will need for that day. And we'll do our best to keep each day fresh and keep you engaged!
Of course writing on your machine is a big part of our program, but so is preparing mentally, before you even place your fingers on the keys. If you're not in a solid place mentally, being a 280 writer isn't going to do much good. That's where we'll start.
Next, you'll get plenty of great dictation to work with - 2-voice, jury charge, literary, medical, names and numbers - over 7 hours worth in the 5-week course. These are mp3's that you'll be able to utilize and keep forever.
Read those notes! There's only one way to tell if you're writing well - read your notes! You may feel like you "got it", but unless you read your notes, you don't really know what you have. Do you really want to find surprises in your notes when it comes time to transcribe? You should be reading at least 75% of what you write. We work that time into your RMR Prep Schedule.
Speaking of transcribing, you need to get in the habit. Write - transcribe. Write - transcribe. Write - transcribe. That's the way the RMR is given, so shouldn't you be practicing that way? It's in the schedule.
Grading? RMRPREP.COM will be grading your mock tests. You won't be grading your own RMR exam, so let's make this a real mock (an oxymoron) and let someone else do the grading for you.
Unlike our other prep programs (RPR and CSR), we do NOT offer academics with the RMR program. The fact is that the machine is the key. That's the largest piece of the puzzle, so we've decided to focus on that.
The bottom line - our RMR Prep Program is NOT designed to get you ready for reporting at an agency or even in the court system. Your school and mentorship hours should be preparing you for that. RMRPREP.COM is about one thing - getting you ready to pass the RMR exam. So take full advantage of our RMR Prep Program and you'll be taking a step in the right direction!
Thanks!
