Don't know to much about visas, but one of the smartest people in my AEMT class was a guy from Haiti. Like I said I am not sure about his visa status, but if he could do it I am sure you can.

This is just my opinion, but I would tell anyone who would listen not to waste money or time on being a CNA. Focus on EMT.

I knew a girl that worked right up until a few days before she had the baby. So it shouldn't be a problem.

Just wanted to chime in about the MCAT. A friend of mine, he is an AEMT as well. He just finished his BS in Biology, and got accepted to some Med school in the Caribbean without having to bother with the MCAT. Also a doc I know in the ER didn't take the MCAT and got into a DO school in...

Like most have said don't read anything if your test is tomorrow. One thing you can do though, is to make sure that you have all the baseline vitals memorized for all the age groups. That will come in handy. When I took my B and A test that was the only thing that I looked over the night before...

It really depends on how fast the people in the state office can clear your paper work. I would say prepare for a two week wait at the worst, and that is after you instructor signs off. On the other hand it could happen the very next day. When I tested for basic I got my ATT 2 days after my...

I took my test back in August, and passed it the first time around. Let me start off by saying that I thought that the A test was easier than the Basic, but that is just my opinion. The only thing that I would tell you to memorize would be vitals for all the age groups...

The only thing I did the day before the test was to memorize all the vitals for all the age groups. Beyond that there isn't much to do. You either know it now or you don't. Just remember stay basic. Just because it says ADVANCED EMT, do not get fancy treatment syndrome. Good luck and let us know...

I took my AEMT test back in August; I passed it the first time around. Some people might disagree with this, but this is just my observation from my time in school and my time now working in EMS. First off let me say the AEMT is not hard. People that tell these horror stories are people that did...

I have passed both my Basic and Advanced test first time around, and I think a lot of that has to do with EMT National Training. No test prep will be just like the NREMT, but EMT National Training is about as close as you can get.

It my school EMT B and AEMT was a all in one course. EMT B was about a semester and a half, and AEMT was about a Semester and a half, so it takes about the same time as it took to get B.

Where I work if a Paramedic draws up a med outside my scope and has me give it because he is busy doing something else that is allowed, because it is the Paramedics decision. It is a big no no for Aemt to draw up drugs beyond their scope.

I see in Georgia not even in the big cities is there such a thing as a BLS truck. Basics don't work in 911 here. Nearly all the trucks in most of the cities that I know of have 1 paramedic and 1 EMT I or AEMT, and fire doesn't have much to do with ems in all but a few cities in the whole state...

Don't mean to get the thread off topic but I just have to ask, are you serious when you say a fire truck goes to nearly every medical call in LA County. Lets say someone calls for vomiting, or something like that and they get not only and ambulance coming to there house but a fire truck...

I used JB learning. If I were you I would talk to the NREMT people or you instructor, because it took all of 5 hours for me to get my results for the test, so something doesn't seem right about waiting 3 months.

I used JB learning for my test. I passed it the first time out. I thought the JB learning test were harder than the actual AEMT test.

Told you ya passed:wacko:

On the front page of the NREMT website there is a link that says State EMS agency info. Click on that when you do a map of the country will pop up. You will then click on the state you are in and it will take you to your state EMS agency website, and from there you should be able to find the...

You really shouldn't get mad at Ben, he was just being honest. EMT-B is by no means difficult. All he was trying to say was if you put in the work in class you can pass the test and that is the truth.
