It's official: Contents in today's mail from the Certifying Board of the American Association of Medical Assistants (AAMA) revealed successful test results for the CMA (AAMA) Certification Exam that Marla sat for last June for the CMA designation, the gold standard of the medical assisting certification. It was interesting to read about the percentile ranks for the total examination and the three major content areas of the exam (i.e. General, Administrative, and Clinical) because they indicate the percentage of the reference group candidates who obtained scores lower than Mar's, reinforcing a unique sense of accomplishment that demonstrates so well, the fruits of her labor. For example, in the General content area, Mar's percentile rank based on reference group was 99; this means that 99% of the reference group candidates had scores lower than her on the General items. Similarly, Mar's percentile rank for the Clinical content was 98; this means that 98% of the reference group candidates had scores lower than hers on clinical items. Lastly, Mar's percentile rank for the Administrative content was 93; consequently, 93% of the reference group candidates had scores lower than hers in that area. So all in all, Mar's total examination percentile rank was 99. Thus overall, 99% of the reference group candidates had scores lower than Mar'sl. On behalf of all those who know and love Mar, we thank you for participating in her evolution and giving her the strength to reach for the stars!

Marla, I am so proud and happy for you. I do have to admit that you being at the top does not surprise me. You have always been a bright, intelligent young woman, always being such a joy to talk to and to read the many amazing things you write. Congratulations, Marla!!!
CONGRATS, cuz!!! so excited to hear the excellent news! i bet that felt good to see that you're in the top 1%! you're too awesome! love ya lots!
As I recall, you were not feeling well at all when you took these tests. I thought to myself, "bad timing" and was concerned that your sickness would adversely affect your scores. I don't know how you did so well under such difficult circumstances. You're amazing!
Wow! What more can I say, but "Wow!" 99%. That means... you're amazing. OK, we already knew that, but now everyone else does too. :)
Marla, CONGRATULATIONS!! We are bursting with joy over your well deserved accomplishment! You are one awesome and very smart cookie! Love, Lori and Family
