It is my first recert cycle-
What happens after I send in my new paperwork to recert...will I be notified via website/email/mail that its computer and I am in fact recert'd? Will I get a new card or certificate =/? How will I know if there are issues /or its ok?
Ijust took the emt b test for recert...and stopped at question 70/71 and I kinda feel like I failed...I felt like I had a lot of OB questions...which is my weakness, and difficult ped triage questions.
I feel like so many people state they feel they didnt pass but then did...and when I...
my previous instructor informed me that to pass nremt you must be above 70%, and anything below will fail you. i read somewhere that through the cat system...your test can be longer or shorter depending on if you are getting the difficult or easy questions right...so if you surpass 70% you can...
ive been reading through threads and there was one person who stated..the only difference thus far on teh 2012 and beyond tests are the aha cpr guidelines that slightly changed (recently renewed my cpr as well so golden there..) but unsure if this is correct--just to expand on my last question.

I have heard from a variety of sources that the practice guide books you can get....do not ask hard complex questions like the NREMT exam. I have a textbook I am studying from, which allowed me to pass NREMT last time and has been suggested to me by my teacher:

Re
That is great news.
Where did you find that information out? I emailed my teacher initially to suggest a study book for me....and she kinda put the fear of go* in me and said that with the new standards all books she knows of to study by are outdated......but from what you just said it...
Re
i was told by an nremt rep that you can recertify via mail and paper application if someone is not affiliated as long as you can prove via hr letter or pay stubs you worked at least 6 months. only affiliated companies are online.
