your instructor from your course is supposed to send the approval to the NREMT and when you create your profile on their website it should show your approval. at my school, the instructors said they had up to 1 month after the course ended to submit our grades from both the class score and...

i went to a community college for my basic course simply because it was $1100 cheaper than it was at the 4-year university down the road. thinks to note: university pass rate was 91% cc pass rate was 67% university made you pay for health insurance cc didnt university had city FD...

math math math! it does help.........the statistics comment stumped me at first but after i thought about it i believe it really could help if youre going to take physics, i would advise against the cal based version. there were two other types at my university that were MUCH easier but at...

is this from your past experience of taking forensic anthropology? i think hands on bone and bone fragment studies really helped. you dont have to agree with it, but i would hope you at least took the course if you are going to dismiss it so easily.

haha, you can take chem classes without finishing high school too! nah, thats good to know, maybe i will finally get to use some of my chem knowledge (at least the little bit i remember) in the field......

the second sentence may have been a little confusing so i will state it a different way.........organic chemistry topics didnt get covered at all in basic class......neither did gen chem either for that matter.

really? i dont think organic helped at all. are you saying for when you become a paramedic? knowing the structures of compounds (basically all organic chem is) didnt get covered at all in class. forensic anthropology was pretty much a "bones" class. really helped with human skeletal...

izibo, look at my previous post and theory

i think if you take it more than once it only depends on mastery of previously failed points. ive had friends that passed it after their first try and it only went to the 50's. i havent heard of anybody going below 70 on the first try (at least for basic). this is just a theory though.......

I had the "advantage" of getting my bachelors in biology and forensic science Prior to taking my emt-b course and I would say out of all the classes I took in college that A&P, forensic anthroology, developmental biology, and biology I and II were the most helpful in my emt training. I also...

POW! good job!

oh i dont know, seeing as AHA changes it every day seemingly. (joke) or maybe because some peoples books could be outdated. I know our book seemed to just skim CPR guidelines. Nowhere did the book cover the 2010 guideline specifics, especially when it came to infants. maybe because some...

dont worry too much. my buddy passed on monday and went to 120. if you did fail, at least you know what type of questions will be on the test next time.

retaking CPR classes every several months. i know, it may seem simple, however you would be surprised what you forget in just a little bit of time.

Exactly what the previous poster said.... I had two burn questions that were worded differently but were the same question with the same answers with those same answers just simply changed around. I answered it the same way both times because I was confident my answer was the correct one. passed...
