I just scheduled my nremt-b test through pearson vue while looking on the website where i scheduled my exam it says i am scheduled to take the NREMT-E: EMT . Which i have never heard of, i tried looking it up but couldn't find much on it. Did they schedule me for the wrong exam ? or is this a new name or something ?
 
EMT-B is now called EMT. They have started transitioning to the new titles.
 
Oh ok, thank you !
 
I wish you the best. Remember, when it comes to the NREMT test, the question and the four options provided are the only thing that exist in your world at that moment. Even if you would do something else in reality, the answer they are looking for is one of those. Message me if you want more tips/advice. I took mine recently, so its fresh in my memory as to how it works.
 
Good luck!! Remember not everyone gets the same amount of questions. Don't get nervous if others are done before you. Take your time! Remember ABC. airway first, breathing second, circulation next. You'll do great!!

That's a great way of explaining it. I may have to steal that.
 
And what helped me was narrowing down the 2 answers were definitely wrong. Gave me a 50% chance rather than %25. :)

Jblearning helped me
 
Just scheduled mine as well. Feel like I'm going for a Med degree - but the sample questions I've seen appear above an EMT level, so trying to be ready. Is this really going to ask for diag of ab aortic aneurism, c3-c4 trauma or stick with basic keep the pt safe & alive till next level of care?? I don't mind (actually enjoy) learning this, but with the EMT's primary med being O2 (LOL) - I think I've missed the connection. Except a higher skill level that the doc is gonna outweigh anyway. Hmmm, seems I'm a lil frustrated from over studying. Sorry - but, any feedback?? THX!!
 
Both of the ddx you listed are pretty easy to come up with at the basic level. They won't throw you curveballs, it'll be a textbook presentation ie tearing chest pain radiating into the patients back and signs of shock.

Don't sweat it, you'll be fine.
 
Thx Rob - been focusing on the "wording" of questions just now - - interesting how much difference there is between bleeding profusely and spurting, via one's imagery of the scene - which can totally change the SBA. Gotta slow down. :rolleyes: It's just that strange desire I have to get out there & be the difference. After 20 years in corporate, I finally got a few things in the right order. That being said, having someone hire a 43 y/o over someone that's 19 may prove harder than passing the NREMT exam.
Such as it is, that's how it is.
