No time limits (usually) on transcription portion
Subject: No time limits (usually) on transcription portion

As far as posting test questions and waiting around for the answers, I would assume these questions were being asked about the transcription portion of the exam. Mind you, not all companies set a time limit for returning the transcription testing files to them. Tests I have taken in the past have been tough ones, as many as 4 parts, with testing time spanning a few days while waiting for the recruiter to grade each section.
*English grammar/punctuation skills. Pass this, you move on to the next.
*Medical terminology skills/medication uses/disease processes, etc. Pass this, advance again to the next.
*Transcription skills demonstrating all of the above plus your ear-ability. Pass this, whew...almost done with this testing stuff! On to the last step.
*Oral exam. Pass this, get an offer (hopefully for a lot more than 7 cpl considering ALL the testing you just passed). lol

Not all companies perform this kind of in-depth testing, but I think the ones that do are more interested in hiring an MT who will be able to taken off full QA within a day or two of being hired, as opposed to an MT that is not as familiar/experienced with this employ.
