Testing with Lee County......

I as well am testing on the 5th for Lee County, and this is my third attempt. I am almost completed with Paramedic school.

First you will have a written exam. It is at least an advanced EMT test, and some say a Paramedic test. I study state exam questions for Paramedic to prepare, which has helped.

From what I can gather, they are hiring 5 people, and I believe they have invited 170 people or so to test. After the exam we will wait outside for them to grade the test, and then they will call us in to see who made the primary "cut". They will allow the top 40 or 50 people to move on to the next stage and the rest must bow out gracefully. If you do not make it, do not be discouraged, it takes a lot of effort.

If you make it, you will encounter a scenario, a physical test and an interview.

Good luck! It has been a wild ride for me! - N -

Not sure where you heard they are only hiring 5. That would be a pretty small academy class almost not even worth it. Not saying you're wrong but that def doesn't sound right.

I am also in the June 5th testing for Lee County. I am a NREMT-P and a former employee of the service. (long story, but glad to get a chance to come back) The written test is no joke. It is designed that way. The academy class is 5-6 people from what I have heard as they're hiring to replace the people who have been retiring. If Im not mistaken the cuttoff is usually 80% or better. But with 170 people its sure going to be 88-90% score or higher. Good luck to you all.

ill be there too for the june 5th. wow 5 seems like a really small class. they sent out email to 189 people looks like.

do you recall what the practical scenarios and oral interview questions are like?

Just your standard NREMT assessment scenario and job interview questions. But the last time I took it was 2005 so it might of changed by then.
