What your students practice
The National Certified Medical Assistant (NCMA) exam is the National Center for Competency Testing's (NCCT) certification exam for medical assistants. NCCT's detailed test plan, effective January 2024, gives it 125 scored questions plus 25 unscored pretest questions, with three hours to finish; about 92% are four-option multiple choice and 8% are alternative items such as drag and drop, multi-select and hotspot. Scores run from 200 to 720 and a scaled 575 passes, which is not a fixed percentage. The plan has four content categories: Pharmacology and General Medical Knowledge 18 items, Clinical Medical Procedures 72 (Infection Control and Safety 15, Patient Intake and Care 32, Phlebotomy 15, ECG 10), Medical Administrative Duties 15, and Law and Ethics 20. It is taken on a computer at a test site or by remote proctoring, in English only.
Tigertest's practice follows NCCT's NCMA Detailed Test Plan (effective January 2024) and Candidate Handbook (revised January 2026), checked November 2026. Students train in short sets where missed questions come back until they are mastered, then take full practice tests.

Questions teachers ask
Is the NCMA (NCCT) class free?
Yes. Classes are free for teachers. A student in your class also gets that test's full stats and every step of it at no charge.
Do my students need accounts?
No. A student opens your class link, types the name you know them by and starts practicing. An account is optional and keeps their progress across devices.
What do I see as the teacher?
Who practiced and when, each student's practice test scores, the NCMA (NCCT) topics the class is weakest on, and every question the class answered with how many missed it and which wrong answer they picked.
Can I use my own questions too?
Yes. Any account can turn its own material into a Tigertest quiz and limit it to one class, so only your students can play it.
