    Plan for about 4 hours on paperwork/picture day. It can vary depending on what else is going on at MetroTech but that's the average. Always arrive nice and early. Congrats and good luck to all the new probies!

    There are three FDNY classes going in in June; fire, emt and non-cert emts. The EMT class was added to replenish numbers. Good luck to everyone that gets the call!

    You'll get opportunities to get extra practice before or after your tour (depending on if you are 2 or 3). Don't worry, I know a few people that had little driving experience and passed, and even one or two that failed and had to report to REVOC after graduation to complete the course. It won't...

    Totally normal to feel that way, but trust me when I say you will be fine. Best advice I can give is to listen carefully to anything they tell you and stay organized. Prep everything you need ahead of time and always be early. Your attitude goes a very long way. There is more than enough help...

    This question cracked me up. I feel like y'all are just trying to think of things to ask. But yes, that picture will be on your FDNY ID.

    Once you pass the medical you are fine regarding weight. Although if you are not very fit, I would advise changing your diet and starting to exercise asap. I know some people had to lose weight because they were very muscular but if that's not the case do yourself a HUGE favor and start working...

    Just wanted to give a huge thank you to everyone that has posted here and shared their insight. Did uniform fittings today and I felt so prepared for what was in store. Made sure to get the black duffel bag which I easily would have missed out on. Really started to feel real today! Here we go...

    I got the call last Saturday. Was surprised to get it on the weekend and especially so many weeks out from the start date. Still plenty of time for calls. Could come any day up to the 26th.

    You may need to shed a few pounds, but you can pretty easily check your BMI and see what you may need to do. A lot of people have had to lose a bit of weight. Low carbs and tons of cardio will do wonders. Oh and don't let SpaceEMT's rude and demeaning comments get to you. Vast majority of us...

    They don't call in exact order. It hops around a bit. If you were skipped just sit tight, no need to worry. There's plenty of time for calls still.

    I read this forum with a nearly embarrassing regularity for over a year before I began posting. That's not to say some of you on 7000 and beyond won't have appropriate questions before I did but please look back and find the answers to your own questions. If this job means anything at all to...

    Physical meaning PAT or your medical? I had my PAT last May, intake in July, medical and psych in September (about a week apart).

    Hi Rory, Sorry but your post is misleading. They are not even close to starting calls for list #7000. They are only about half way through #6003 right now. List #7000 could start getting calls as early as this fall, but for high 400s I would expect next Janunary if things follow along this pace...
