Does this mean I passed the practical?

Augh! I can't decide if i'm glad or mad that i found this thread - now i'm going to be checking PSIexams daily to see if they've gotten my record. Took the test on the 6th, so it's been two weeks now.
 
I passed! Now the written, then the job apps...
 
congrats...just out of curiosity where did you take your course/ practical exam?
 
In western Mass. Hoping to be in Boston this summer, though.

Question about the MA written: Do you pass at 70%? Is the test adaptive like the NREMT test? I can't find any info about it online.

Where is Western MA did you take it? (If you don't mind me asking :wacko:)

Yes, you do pass at 70%. And no, I do not believe it is adaptive. Hope that helps!
 
you pass with a 70% or better. It is not adaptive. The break down is as follows or at least this is what i had. It is 100 questions and you can check this on the PSI website under the EMT manual: Airway/breathing-18 questions, Medical emergencies-17, Patient Assessment-18, Preparation-15, Operations/spec. conditions-16, and Trauma-16.

most people dont study the operations part nearly as much. i would study that which includes OB, environmental, HAZMAT (if any) just b/c you go over it quickly in class.

Thank you! When PSI says their website does not support firefox, safari, or chrome, it does not lie. I can't do anything on my mac other than see the buttons that say "pay for a test". I guess i'll find a PC tomorrow to schedule it.

Thanks for the link!
 
yeah i had the same problem...my roommate has a pc so i just used his to register at the time. you can also call in...but it is easier to register online.
