    Failed my EMT-B course by 1% point.

    No, in my state to take the exam you must pass the B class. I'd like to be retested, but have been flatly denied. I'll be sending a letter to the director. Although, from the way my teacher made it sound was that she doesn't want to let me retake. But our course clearly states that to pass your...

    Failed my EMT-B course by 1% point.

    The Admin. Assistant said an appeal will likely go nowhere. I asked my instructor what I could do, if I could retake the test and I got a flat, no.

    Failed my EMT-B course by 1% point.

    It sounds like you're taking the 1 month accelerated class!? Good luck on that I took the 3 month part time class. While I still feel like I learned a ton, the class could be a lot more thorough and more clinical time. Literally, the one 12 hour ride-a-long did almost nothing for me.

    Failed my EMT-B course by 1% point.

    You can pass this class. Then transfer your credits to CSN which is what I had planned on. However, the tests are alays different than what we were told to study. At least for me. Granted, my studying largely consisted of following the lectures, highlighting points in the book and using the...

    Failed my EMT-B course by 1% point.

    The worst part is that my 79% at the college would be a straight up pass - so would the 74%. It's just so odd that the Comm. College grade standards are not as high as NCTI - which is ridiculous. I still feel I'd have a better grade if I went to the Comm College - who not only do A basic class...

    Failed my EMT-B course by 1% point.

    So, I was going to NCTI. Stupid idea, I should have went to the community college as their program seemed much better. However, at the time I didn't know about it until after I had paid my tuition. So - I stuck around, because I wouldn't have gotten my deposit back. Boy, was that a huge mistake...

    Going to school at the end of the month.

    Well guys, my plan is to get my EMT-B and get a job (does AMR hire out of it's school?) Once I get a job as an EMT-B I'm going to go to school for EMT-I (as soon as I can - but I need cash flow. Because right now I'm broke paying for this first class... So I'm praying I get a job fresh out of...

    Going to school at the end of the month.

    Can I expect that after schooling as an EMT-B that I will be able to get a job on an ambulance? I'm in Las Vegas. I expect to complete the schooling for EMT-B and get a job with that, and then go to school to get cert'd as an EMT-I, and If I like it enough I maybe continue on to go to paramedic...
