Try an online program. Many here have used them and it seems to be the best way to pass. Try searching your question and it should give you a list of ideas. Good luck!!!

It might be less nerves and maybe that you're just not cut out for the field. The tests aren't there to allow people to get their licenses but to weed people out. Granted, they don't do the best job but that is their purpose.
 
Hey. so im in my emt basic right now at Palomar in San Diego, and we received a skills manual that is based on the NREMT test. and its really easy to understand. so if you want i can scan it and email it to you to take a look at if you want. i cant do it tell Friday and itll take me a min but ill gladly help if you want
 
I'm pretty sure she's talking about the CBT and not the practical....

It's been answered 1401387432 times on this forum and no offense but I am leaning towards agreeing with usaf.

NREMT is all about Scene safety, ABCs, and c-spine, in that order. don't read into the questions, and don't freak out when testing, it's not a super difficult test. Just Stick to the basics and you'll be good. Just remember, Safety then ABCc.
 
As long as you know your :censored::censored::censored::censored:, you might pass.
 
I tried emtquiz.com and it worked. I used conventional study methods the first two times, tried that the third time and passed

ok so i took my test and passed it on the 4th try...this is what i did...i made notecards of all the things in my book that i did not know...i bought an online program, you can google it...its called "emt achieve" by prenhall...if you score 75's and 80's on the test they have to offer, you will fail on your nremt you have to make 100's on everything...you have to try very hard to study, ive been in your position before, but i never gave up...neither should you...you can do this...remember that abc's or cab's first, before bvm or nrb whatever the patient might need...

Reread your book. Remember the order of every thing such as ABCs and rapid trauma assessment.
 
Take it from some one that is terrible on test taking, I took my exam on9/20/11 for the first time thinking I failed big time during the test. There are a bunch of question that we didn't even cover in class, just make sure you get the easier questions right ( abcs, scene safety, CPR). Remember classic signs of shock, these are the questions that I believe saved me and why I passed.

Nope. Test taking is a skill and perhaps she just needed to learn how to take the NREMT. Doesn't mean she's an idiot nor does it mean she doesn't belong in EMS. It means it took her 4 attempts to pass. I don't believe you can accurately judge ones competency based on a few posts.
 
I used EMT-B cram plan by cliffnotes for mine and I passed. Its worth a try. It has practice tests that show which specific subject you lack knowledge in and the study material in the book as well. Best of luck on you next attempt.

Actually, I'm pretty sure C-spine comes before ABC's. You consider it during the "scene size up" and apply it during your "initial assessment", before you even attempt any airway maneuver.

Otherwise.....spot on.

Uh no its c-spine precautions not put a c-collar on before making sure the person is alive.
 
That's what I'm sayin'. I'm not talking about the actual c-collar. Just the precautions come before ABC's.
