Okay, I'll do both then, thanks a bunch.



Oh damn I'm sorry to hear that. For me the first time it took over a month to hear back from them via mail.

Yeah it totally sucks. Hopefully they reschedule me. I was also thinking of filing for the one that's currently open just in case[/QUOTE]

Last question, I am emailing them, should I be honest that the reason I am not able to attend the Physical Agility test is because I have not gotten my license yet? Or would this look bad? Should just request if they can give me another appointment for later?

When I tried for reschedule they didn't ask for my reason so that's really up to you if you wish to offer that up.

You're in it? Good luck. Don't let some of the naysayers get you down with what's currently going on. If you happen to do rotations at 50, let me know.

Asking for a friend.

He's trying to submit his application for the EMS exam that's out right now (September 2017).

Is there NOT a final submission button anymore? He's describing it as "staying open until the last day. It seems like it will automatically close out".

He has received a receipt of payment for the application though.

Thank you.

Yes it will automatically be submitted once the filing period is over (26th).

did you get a date for a second try yet ? practice the stair master ( local gyms have them) wearing a 50 pound vest wear and hoodie ( That's what I did to keep my hands in ) and whistle or sing a song in your head, breath thru your nose keeps the cotton mouth at bay. practice and U will get your rhythm and keep your hands in your hoodie pocket. That's what worked for me.

Good luck and practice

Hey guys,
Forgive my ignorance, I'm just a little confused about what happens after the PAT I have read previous posts and while they are very helpful, I'm still Like ?? Because I believe I was told to call on Tuesday after 10am for my results after they gave me the manila envelope. I took the PAT on Sat, Sept 16. Who am I calling?? Fort Totten? Lol sorry, but idk? Then does the investigator call me and the doctor? Did anyone get told the same thing? Anyhows, to NycEmt7, don't worry dude, you'll definitely get it the 2nd time around. I put a 35lb kettlebell in my bookbag and went up down the stairs for 3 min in my house. That can work also if you don't have a gym membership, also go running a few times a week at the park to build up your cardio and yes, breathe through your nose. Pace your self dude! Just work on your cardio.
