First off greetings from South Jersey!B)

I recently completed EMT-B June 14th at my county academy. I registered and took my NJ EMT-B Certification Exam July 3rd 2008. Now I heard you'll know in a weeks time or 3 months.

Anyone who took the exam within the last 2 years or so have a real time frame for me?

I'm kinda anxious about finding out if I passed cause I've been pro-fire since I was a kid and taking EMT AND passing it was a huge accomplishment for me so...praying I passed.

Thanks in advance everyone and stay safe!

welcome to the EMS side of things
 
Thanks. Hope I can start riding the ambo soon..
 
took me about 2 and a Half months to find out if I passed, then 2 weeks to get the card.
 
The paper the proctor handed me said up to 4 weeks and in bold DO NOT CALL OEMS haha.

It's been a week so we'll see I guess. Just really wanna know if I passed OR failed.

I took my NJ EMT-B state test mid-July 2007 and received my card in the mail within 2-3 weeks. However, I have heard recently from somebody on my squad who just took the test that they are now emailing results in less time. Not sure if this is now a standard procedure for the state or if the person I was talking to was mistaken.

Best of luck!!

Right, the new OEMS Certification system is in full force and I was told by our course coordinator we're one of the first EMT-B classes to use it once it was 100% online so.

I looked at the exam under my registration and it still says not attempted so, who knows.

Thanks though for the luck.
 
Jeeze wacker, I told you to RELAX! :D

Keep checking the OEMS website, do a search on yourself.
They will have you in the system before you get your card.

Just like I told you.

Breathe, Brother, it'll be OK!

Welcome Brother

Welcome to HELL aka Jersey EMS, Log on there web site http://www.state.nj.us/health/ems/
or call 1-800-367-6543. It shouldn't take more then 4 weeks for you to get the result. A good friend of mine who is a Fire Captain&EMT in EO tells me you wont make money doing EMS like in the fire house, but you will have fun, hope that will proof true to you :huh:

I called the OEMS after emailing my course coordinator since the paperwork said to email them after 4 weeks, they said "We're running slow, please wait another 6-8 weeks"

I almost hung up on the girl :censored::angry:
 
OEMS aka Jersey Snail

Brother if you live in south Jersey take a drive down there and ask in person what's going on preferably riding an engine and perform a sprinkler test if they don't give you the right answer:wacko:

Haha, I'll have my dad bring the Rescue Engine to Trenton (25 minutes from home) B)
 
I got an email from OMES in about 4 weeks and my card in the mail about a week and a half later.
