That's absolutely true. I was working 10-12 hour days, 5 days per week, in my first week in class and have just now, at the end of the second week, got caught up. Now, I only work 3 days per week (still long hours) and am taking weekends off, in hopes that this will be enough for me to keep...

Well, poop. At least it was only worth 5 pts. I guess I'll ask on Monday. Thanks, all. One more question... Did y'all really remember everything you learned in class, or did you find the majority of your learning to be on the job? I'm more of a learn by doing kind of person, and I'm nervous...

Thanks for your response. My instructor does my background check?

It was due today. Hoping I can get it online real quick before the deadline. Thanks all

I am specifically looking for any tried and true study apps for EMT cert, but also anything else EMS related that you can get on your phone. Just curious if y'all use anything for your job or study, or even a fun game or quiz app.

That is something I hadn't considered about their situation. Wow.

Anyone know about this school in Tucson, AZ? Seems a bit pricey. https://warriorschool.com/course/emt-immersion-program-21-days-2017-06-18/2017-09-17/

Here's an interesting article that kinda sums my thoughts up on it. Which is why i was wondering what the expectation was. I would be a more cautious driver rather than faster, and wasnt sure if that would frustrate everybody lol Because how much time do you really save going 100mph over 10...

Thanks all, for the info and advice. Very helpful :) I really appreciate this forum

I'm not afraid of the schooling, the ride alongs, or the emergency scenarios that run through my head... the long hours dont bother me at all... The only thing that makes me nervous is the thought of speeding down the road in a box truck. What do they tell you as far as how to drive? I'm not...

Faithful Guardian Training Center has really good reviews and has a payment plan. I know they have training centers in Mcdonough and Temple, not sure where else.

I had plans to start school in Georgia in the beginning of August and now due to a bunch of stuff you'd rather not know, I will be heading to Tucson, AZ in a couple weeks, staying there until spring, and then moving to Michigan. I'm pretty overwhelmed, but I am not putting off getting certified...

What brand of cover up sleeve do yall use? I can only find them online so i will be buying sight unseen. Any that you prefer, that look more natural or that you think will stay on skinny arms? lol

Very helpful, thanks

Awesome thanks

Confession time... I've always wanted to be a Coastie. I became a wife and mom early on in life, and it just want in the cards. Now at almost 37, I am looking into the Coast Guard Auxiliary. I wouldn't mind volunteering in any capacity that they'd let me. I hope they need EMT's or...

If you are certified in one state, and decide to move to another state, or live near the state line and have options, is it very complicated to be licensed in more than one state, or to switch states? I'm curious in general, but I am currently in GA and may have the opportunity to move out of...

Thanks, all. I'm in GA. The class is being held at Faithful Guardian Training Center. http://www.faithfulguardian.com/admissions-process It's just back-to-back courses. I'm not sure about getting the textbooks before class, but I'll call and ask on Monday. Do yall know of any good...

I'm taking the EMT basic and advanced classes together in about a month. Is there anything i will want to really practice or delve deeper into while i'm there? What parts of training do you think is used the most in the field? Are there any parts of the training that are especially complicated...

As long as they let me wear sleeves all the time i should be golden.
