    For those currently in the academy: I'm sure I asked this before.... But for people who have gauges, are we to take them out and cover them with bandaids or are we able to keep them in and cover them with a bandaid... I currently have an 8mm hole in my ear and I wouldn't want it to get...

    Disclose EVERYTHING. Whether it's a unique situation such as yours, or a simple speeding ticket. Disclose it, if you've been fired from a job, laid off, etc. Disclose it. Seeing that your situation happened way back when in high school I doubt that will affect you as long as your drug tests are...

    They just wanna know in your own words on why you took those medications. Don't stress. I was in the same shoes. You'll spend more time waiting on the person than you actually will with them. Which is maybe 5-10 minutes

    You have a bit of a wait still... There are a little over 700 on exam #5003 before they even put those on #6003 through the academy. Just have some patience, especially with your investigator. Sometimes hearing nothing from them is better lol. Can't tell you how many times I've been called...

    Getting into the academy is all dependent on your list number. If you're in the early numbers I would say six months to a year til youre in the academy. When I did my PAT It was in the middle of the summer last year, then everything else was a month to two months apart. From what my...

    Similar boat here. I did my PAT and Medical with those with lower numbers than mine (200-300 number difference) Don't stress so much. They space it out to keep you occupied in the lengthy process that it takes to get into the academy.

    Thank you everyone. I just didnt think it was a good idea to bring up because the July Academy is so close and part of the trigger for this attack was weather related

    So just a quick question. Recently I had an asthma attack caused by extensive exvercise while being sick... Is this something I NEED to disclose, or is it something I can let slide.... I don't want to be medically DQ'd for something that doesn't happen that often

    My file was handed to one of the senior investigators. She had contacted me recently for an updated statement about a motor vehicle incident I was involved in because the first one was no good.... (not enough details)

    Well have fun. Hope all goes well, and hopefully I'll see you on the other side lol. I'm still dropping in weight overall and my cardio is improving slowly. The academy Will probably get me into better shape than what I was in high school too lol

    They're reviewing the folders for a final determination for the upcoming academy. Easy guys, if you haven't heard anything That's usually a good thing. Fermando double check with your investigator in regards to the whole EMT card thing. That's something I myself wouldn't push off til last minute

    Our folders are being reviewed by senior investigators. I was called by the one reviewing my folder recently just to check on my current employment status. So much has been going on I was almost DQ'd for failure to disclose about being laid off some time ago.
