Don't you have to be 18 to take the national registry exam, or has it changed?

Pretty sure you need to be 18.

Yes NREMT requires the applicant to be 18 when they test. But some states do testing themselves and might, unfortunately, allow someone under 18 to test.

I wasn't aware tht some states do their own testing; that's news to me. Learn something everyday.
