I took the final in January of this year... it was relatively easy compared to some of the later quiz transcriptions. Good luck, don't stress, there's really no need to! You'll do fine as long as you kept up with your course.

Were you able to transcribe most of the chapters with passing scores? I found they were very difficult and didn't get a passing score on very many of them. Am I going to have problems taking the final??? How much studying do you think is necessary for the final? I really really appreciate your feedback. Have you found work yet?

Come on, now. Is this is joke, something to just get everyone all riled up around here? You aren't really serious, are you?

Tsk. Tsk. Where are your manners?
If you haven't been performing well on your coursework, why are you taking a final?

speaking of manners. From what I have seen, not too many people have them on this site. One of the rules of this site stated that if you don't have something nice to say, do not say it at all. It is too bad that people have to be so "high-and-mighty" on a site that is suppose to be available for help and support.

Okay, it seems I was wrong and your post was for real. I apologize. I'll try to answer your questions, even though they weren't directed to me, because after all, this is a public board and anyone can answer.
First, I have never quite understood people asking for "tips" on taking finals. It's a test. Be prepared. That's the best tip I could ever give.
Second, you say you found most of the chapters difficult and didn't get a passing score on many of them. My question to you, and I would love for you to ask your instructor this, what in the world are you doing taking the final now? The MT school I went to would have never let me get to that point without some serious extra work. Your next question, "Am I going to have problems taking the final??" is kind of a no-brainer, isn't it? If you failed consistently throughout the course without any of your instructors pulling you aside and giving you the help you needed, or at least being honest with you and telling you you are not cut out for this business, yes - you are going to have problems with the final. Unless, of course, your school's final is designed to be so easy that anyone can pass it.
Then you say "How much studying do you think is necessary for the final?" Well, honestly, a lot more than you put toward the many chapters that you failed. Maybe you did study a lot, I don't know. Again, if you scored that badly and you did study, something is not right with your school to let you continue on in this manner.
Your school has a pretty bad reputation on grads who are not prepared to get jobs, and these are students who haven't had the problems you are having, so you are really in a bad position, the way I see it.
If you seriously want to learn this profession, and you seriously want a job within a very short time after graduating, I would suggest biting the bullet and taking another course through either Andrews or M-TEC. I wouldn't even bother taking the final with your school. You've already wasted your money - why waste any more time.
Good luck.

I came back to add something to this thread. About taking another course, just so you don't think I'm giving advice I know nothing about, because I can hear you saying, "Oh, easy for her to say." I have taken two courses, 7 years apart from first to second course. I aced both of them, I might add :). The first course was just under $7000. The second was Andrews, $3800. Do the math. Lots of money, but I wanted to do this that bad. In my case, I had been out of the business, and really not even working for more than a few months the first time around, too long to get back into it without having a school on my resume that was well recognized by the national companies online that would waive the standard 2-year requirement of experience to even test with them. So, I did what I felt I had to do. I made all that money back, for both schools, well within the first year of working. Up until going to Andrews, I hadn't even paid the first school loan off, so taking Andrew's course, which I finished in 6 months, and getting a job within 2 weeks of graduating was definitely a wise choice.
