    Having Trouble Passing NREMT-B - Suggestions?

    I did my practicals back in january as well and the biggest thing as you know is practice! Sometimes I stayed after class was over and worked on my skills and especially intubation. Try practicing at home with a buddy or sibling. Have your mom and dad drill you over the skill sheets. I passed...

    Post the # your test stopped at, and if you Passed/Failed

    The whole thing, IMO, is designed to test your cognitive ability. You're tested on how well you know the material and your ability to retain the information. Also, how well you take tests is a factor.

    NREMT test

    When you sign up to take the CBT offeredw by the NREMT they have to verify from the specific institution that you have passed the practical skills portion before you're allowed to test. That's when they issue a certificate to test letter to you.

    State Card

    I beleive in Ohio you have to pass NR to get your state card. Once you pass NR then you have to contact the state and they mail you a card. I'm actually in the process right now. But I know a lot of guys who run full time with fire departments who only renew their state card. My older brother is...

    Having Trouble Passing NREMT-B - Suggestions?

    Unfortunately you can't go back and check your answers. That's where I keep getting in a bit of trouble because I have a thought process that kind of leap frogs. I always go back and check every one of my answers and will catch my mistakes. With the NREMT CBT you get one question at a time and...

    Having Trouble Passing NREMT-B - Suggestions?

    Well we'll see about that if i don't make it through the third time. I happen to think the CBT process is a rip off. But I took it through my college and they actually have a really good EMS program. The course itself was taught by a 30 year Paramedic Veteran from Cincinnati Fire Department. I...
