Go back and see where you struggled or dont feel confident on. If you got any algorithm sheets, study those. Take a deep breath. You know it, if you worked for it. Youre not going to learn anything new, just throughly review where you know you need to. Best of luck! I took mine yesterday.

I use the L C Ready and love it. It tells you why the right answer is the right one- and its written by the guys who wrote the NREMT (which I dont know if it makes a difference or not). But it takes it level by level and different stages of each level. Its easier for my learning system anyway.

Thanks! I keep checking my grade to see if my final kicked me off of my "A" grade that I had. he he

I'm so relieved! I've been told that my instructor's tests were harder than the NREMT and I have the study software/website that I'm practicing on. So now I'm in limbo between class completion and NR. Oh well. My school gave me an "EMT" shirt. Good enough for me in the meantime. ;)

One thing I love about this board is that there are so many strong personalities, points of view, and experience. That being said.... we shouldn't use our talents to attack one another. On a message board, in the garage, or in the field. Everyone take a deep breath...... Goosfraba....

Hello. My name is Amelia and I am a smiley face addict.

I'm not going to study "hard core." I'll just review the important stuff like age group vitals, some terminology that have been difficult for me (just a couple- nothing earth shattering). But yes, I am most definitely taking your advice. Thank you

Ok. :D I'm a mom so those things catch my attention big time. But as for kids- be smiley, goofy, cartoon-like. If it doesn't fly, go into teddy-bear, soft caring mode. Let the kid help with what s/he can. Don't ask permission, but like "Which arm should we hug?" (with the bp cuff). "Which eye...

Tomorrow is my course final. I'm oddly not freaking out. I know what I need to really study, but I'm sure I will not get much sleep tonight. Apparently our course final is harder than the NREMT. Keeping my fingers crossed!

^ That is just going off by what you say... during my first cup of coffee. If I had misread, I apologize, but the "fell out of a car and is normally quiet" doesn't cut it for me, to be honest. Possible? Absolutely, but I'd at least tell the EMS that something is a bit off- if they see it too...

Well, my first concern is that this MOI isn't really a concern with you. Even as a FR, your first priority is to the patient, being awkward or not. A 4 year old simply doesn't fall out of a car (as a mother of 2 boys and being a nanny of 5 boys for 7 years in college), let alone hitting her head...

Wow, now I'm really baffled by where you live and curious because we don't need a Ps permission to perform our SOP, but again, it is not a boss/employee relationship... maybe?

I think everyone has that "one thing." I've been through upper GI bleeds coming out both ends, multiple bone fractures, illnesses of all kinds..... and that was before I was in EMT school. And now I've been through a lot more! The one thing that always gets me- drunk puke. But I hear you get...

well currently I work 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

youre my new hero. Most likely I couldnt stay professional.

This is going to bw awesome. One of the course admins say that in one night (12 hours) we may only get 3-4 calls. Of course thats just what he said, however I imagine it wont be too far off.

100-question final on a 1095 page book. Oh Lordy...
