In Reply to: Mostly because ... - CS MT

"... they do not provide all of the Stedman resource books that M-Tec does. Those can be pretty costly and while they are great resources, might not necessarily be something you will need once you become a working MT. For instance, you might get a dozen books for any thing from Cardio to Surgery to Orthopedics but if you get a job on a Psychiatry account or a Dermatology account and then not need all of those books that you paid for."

True, but at least you get "real" reference books, not books written by Andrea Anaya. And you get books like The Language of Medicine, and Anatomy Coloring Book, which are frequently purchased separately by CS students because they're not included in the course. (I think you might also get the AAMT Book of Style at Andrews and/or M-TEC too, not sure.)

You're not just paying more for the books, you're paying more for a better education.
