FDNY EMS Candidates

[anon101]

Hey guys, not really sure if this is the place to post this question so sorry if it's not.

I applied to exam #7000 in August of last year for EMT and am expecting to be in by end of this year or beginning of next year hopefully. My goal is to either become a Firefighter or Paramedic for FDNY ... the FF exam is coming up in April. My question is if I should apply/take the exam? Will it be "quicker" just going through EMS and taking it pointless? I want to just in case but I don't want to be disqualified from taking the promotional exam down the road if that's the way I end up going.

So I guess my question is basically if I apply for the open competitive will I be disqualified from taking the promotional? Or if would taking it pose any complications later?

Thanks!!!

^edit *Should prob say hope to be in some time next year? End of this might be wishful thinking. Thanks again.

I took the 6003 test September 2015, got my number March 2016, did my physical agility test in September 2016, did my intake interview January 2017. It takes about 6 months (usually) to get your list number.

Why, thank you. Anxiously but patiently waiting since July. With my fingers crossed. Congrats on the intake interview!!

My friend who is the academy at the moment said March 6th. The instructors are taking a break.

Well the promo just passed, so it'll be quicker with open competitive. Next promo is prob 4 years from now and I heard you'll need 5 years vs 2 years now.

Most likely you'll miss this upcoming class in March. You'll most likely be placed in July class.

 

[FDNYEMT]

Next academy class is scheduled to be in March not feb

I'm high 600s. You think March or July or more realistic.

LOL this is funniest rumor I've heard so far. No. That's false.

Intake interview is the first official step of being looked at by fdny in terms of who you really are. The intake interview you hand in a package of info that they give you. The info will be whatever they ask from you including where you went to school where you work(ed) etc. You must tell them EVERYTHING they ask you. Leave nothing out. After that is the medical, etc.
