Hi all!

I have applied to several different schools throughout the Southeast and am currently looking to send in my application to Mercer as well! I was looking over the prior health care experience information on the website, and I'm a little confused. I have over 2,000 hours of experience as a scribe in both the ER and outpatient orthopedic surgery, but from what I can tell Mercer will only accept 500 of these hours towards their 1,000-hour requirement. Is that correct? If so, does that mean that I would also have to have 500 hours of some kind of experience listed under the "desirable" category in order to apply? If anyone happens to know the answer or is in the same boat, please let me know! Thanks, and good luck to everyone!

From what they said, scribe is partially accepted, so yes up to 500 hours.
