I took it last week! I got to question #70 when it cut me off. It was my second time taking it, so I was really nervous.

I passed. Just got my cert/patch/card in the mail yesterday.

For anyone who doesn't pass the first time, don't give up, and keep trying. I studied with EMTprep.com for the second go-around and found it extremely helpful. (and a lot of advice from reading through the forums on this site)

Hi everyone,

You guys were a great resource while I was studying for the NREMT. I figure I'd give back and keep building this post.

I took the NREMT yesterday at 5:30 in Miami, Florida. The test shut down at 66 questions. I received my results today at about 8:30amish. PASSED!

I took a semester EMT course at Miami-Dade college. They utilized the AAOS Orange book, 10th edition along with JBLearning. Our instructors MANDATED that everyone take the Final Examination TestPREP portion of JBLearn 5 times and score over 95%. I personally did the Testprep a total of 11 times scoring 95% or higher. In total, I probably did that testprep atleast 30 times trying to achieve 95% or higher. Again, this wasn't by choice.. the instructors mandated it in order to be approved to sit for the NREMT.

At the end, what really helped us the actual book. The testprep is good for overall understanding, but I didn't get any truly similar questions on the NREMT, just the concept.. (types of seizures, Pneumothorax, diabetes types, cardiac tampenade, burn types and percentages, trauma involving bleeding, OB/GYN, Drownings and airways)

Hope this helps and thank you all before me for giving an insight into this exam. It truly helped!

Took the NREMT Basic at 1130 today.....bad choice taking it on a friday. Stopped at 70 sudden onset of stomach discomfort and walked out like "who the?, what the?, huh? I'll be honest, I'm pretty sure I failed it first time out. It's been two years since the class, and I only studied a week. Had been an EMT prior to letting it lapse, and left the test feeling beat down..... It's gonna be a long weekend, but I guess I'll just start studying for my second at bat...

Just took my recert exam and it ended at 70 questions. I passed the first exam, so I don't see why I wouldn't pass the second... but I'll know on Monday or Tuesday :p

Just a tip for anyone waiting and wondering... Put a mark down for every question that you aren't 100% sure you answered correctly (hopefully you were able to narrow most of them down to TWO good choices). Keep track of your total number of questions. Take your final number of uncertains and divide it by two and assume you got that many wrong. If you didn't get enough wrong to fail outright, you almost certainly passed.

Example: 70 questions total, 35 marked as uncertain. That's a 50% score, but cut that in half (statistics say that just guessing between two choices you'll trend towards half right) so you are at a 75% score and you need 70% to pass NREMT. You probably passed.
