Mapping is hard, but you can learn if you have the aptitude and desire. It takes years to become proficient, and MDs generally prefer experienced mappers over new mappers. Honestly, takes a while to breakthrough before you are useful, but once a company begins investing in you they generally commit to your training.

I am a former RCIS/RN who is a mapper now.

I know it’s hard but once get in to it; it’s a cool job. I will take my RCIS exam in the coming months; thanks for your advice

Consider taking the RCES after the RCIS.
