Yes maam, always.
In truth yes many have passed at 150. The number does not tell you if you pass or fail. Some have failed when it stopped at 80.
I took my registry for paramedic today and I was given 150 questions. I have a bad feeling that I failed it because it seems like a lot of questions. I also noticed that I got asked some questions asking something that I've never even heard of. What are your experiences?
No it didn't ask me any question twice. However it asked me similar questions. There were things on that test that I've never heard of. I was actually pretty pissed off when I finished. I know I had the last question right, but I know that doesn't really mean anything. Still haven't gotten my results yet so I guess I will be getting them tomorrow. The wait is horrible. I'll let you all know how I did.
Check the NR site tonight they sometimes post results Sunday evening. If not should be there first thing business hours Monday.
If there were a number of questions you had never heard of your program must have done bad job teaching or (and please don't take offense) you did not do enough personal study.

The last time I took it (Failed) I had a ton of questions that left me scratching my head knowing that I wasn't taught anything about that as well. It wasn't from the lack of a good instructor or course because my Instructor is nationally known in Paramedicine especially PHTLS. I had like 132 questions and it stopped and I found out the next day I had failed. I actually had a knot question as well and I am pretty sure I got it correct. I study constantly and have good habits but if you have never head of what the question is asking about you are screwed no matter how well you prepare yourself. Good Luck I hope you passed, some people know their stuff but fail at test taking!
Very trueOver the course of my medic didactic portion I was probably exposed to more than 2000 multiple choice questions. About half of those questions were on tests where if you scored below an 80% it was considered failing (my program had a 3 strikes and you're out rule).
The rest of the multiple choice questions were presented in random fashion every day in quizzes. These quizzes did not necessarily correlate with what we were learning but it was to help us lean how to take multiple choice question tests, but to also learn new material.
I took my NREMT-P written test 6 months after finishing the didactic portion and my test shut off at 80 questions. I passed.
A good program should teach you the material but also teach you how to take the test, by presenting challenging test questions. A good test taker should be almost able to pass a test on any material purely based on understanding how the question works.
