FDNY EMS Candidates

[MelEmtNyc]

Hey brothers and sisters alike, I have heard from a very reliable source that this April coming will be the last class of 5003, and that in July test 6003 will have a class. I was informed "bet all your money on being in the academy in July" I am list number 11x on 6003.. It could be wrong, but I wouldn't question what I was told by who I was told by. Good luck brothers and sisters, let's see what's in store for us all

Thats impossible there is still like 1300 ppl left from 5003 the class size is gonna be 180 even if they need more ppl they physically cant FT TOTTEN isnt big enough hard enough to even park with a normal class size

You're getting me so excited! I've been expecting the first class of 6003 to be like Jan or Feb like usual. I really hope your source is correct!
List number 8x.

I'm just concerned about the promo to firefighter, although I do love ems and I genuinely want to be a paramedic (rescue medic hopefully) I still want to know that I have options and doors open to me. I really hope that promo to ff isn't closing like the rumors say. Not buying it until de blasio or nigro says it. List 6003, #13xx

 

[SIEMTB]

Stupid question, but how do you go about deferring the physical? Not that I have to, but if I missed my physical for any circumstance, can you reschedule or can you only reschedule if you have a medically documented reasoning as to why you can't take your physical that day?

Why would they skip the end kf 5003? Thats so unfair to like 600 or more people. Have they ever done this before?

 

[FDNYEMT]

Day. You?

I'm really considering night.

 

[MelEmtNyc]

I'm really considering night.

I'm gonna pick night also

 

[MelEmtNyc]

I'm really considering night.

Day sounds good but I'm coming from staten island and I would have to leave super early each day so Def night plus all my friends told me night is much more relaxed than day

Hey Guys I'm on the 6003 list but my number is 654 do you think its a long shot to expect a callback in the coming months. (Have no previous experience that's why i have this #) But I was told the FDNY was looking to hire 800 people.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

You will go to the FDNY EMS Academy in Queens once for:
Agility test.

You will go to Metrotech (FDNY HQ) in Brooklyn 3 times for:
Psych Test
Medical Examination (Physical and drug test)
Interview (not a real interview, but one where you meet your investigator and provide documents to prove who you are, etc.)

As long as everything goes well on your Medical, Psych exam, and Agility test, those will not require any additional trips. However the Interview MAY include multiple trips if you do not have your documents in order, so make sure you bring all your original docs and certs (can't remember which you needed off top of my head, I can get back to you with details later.)
If I remember correctly there is a hotel right across the street from the Metrotech square, so that'll be easy for you.

Interesting, I thought there was a drug test during your PAT. In the letter I received about my PAT, it said there was a drug screening.

There is thats the first thing you do before you take your physical and you have another drug test during medical
