Hi guys. Have not been around in a while... been alot of studying and clinicals. Anyway, tomorrow morning at 8:00 I will be taking my final exam in class for EMT-B. Keep your fingers crossed and lift up a little prayer for me. I have been very adamant about pulling a high "A" in this Basic Curriculum, and I have to pull an 86 on my final to maintain this "A." I will begin EMT-I in October, and then it is on to Paramedic in January. Thanks to all for the encouragement and advice in all of my previous posts...
 
Good luck!

I remember countless nights falling asleep and waking up with my head in the book. It was probably the hardest test I ever studied for and then did not know for 4 weeks if I had passed. One of those tests where it is like choose the best of four wrong answers. :-) Good luck!
 
Results?

Well? How did it go?
 
When I took the NREMT (because we dont have a state exam here in Illinois), I found I was just fine and took the test pretty comfortably...once I ran out of the room and vomited first. I know there are paramedics out there who say pheh on basics and that we arent worth the powder it would take to blow us up. Id spent a year in medical school before the test and before an auto accident took me out of that game and I found EMT school and the run up to the NREMT to be terribly exhausting and stressful. To me at the time it felt like the hardest thing I had ever done. There were times I wanted to quit but I promised myself I wouldnt and Im glad that I didnt and am proud to be an EMT-B. I hope you test has gone well and that you will find the ride of helping people in their times of need to be the exciting roller coaster that I have so far. Good on ya for getting this far...most people dont.
 
I loved Intermediate school. Would do it again in a hearbeat. Wish I had time for medic school.
 
Well, I did pretty well in EMT-B school for the test exams but when I took the NREMT exam I failed it. I realized that I was reading to much into the questions and was not remember the ABC's. After a couple more weeks of studying and going back to take the NREMT exam, I passed with no problem. The thing I had to remember is dont read to much into the question and always remember your ABCs. That is the important part I found.

Good luck on the test, hopefully you passed it.
