Do they send you something in the mail, letting you know what your baseline was, or how you compared to other EMT-B candidates?

No. You get a cover letter, a card, a certificate, a patch, and some pamphlets with NREMT and misc. information.
 
Test stopped at 70 or 71. Got confirmation I passed today, but whew, stressful waiting over the weekend to see if I passed!
 
83, passed. 30 minutes.


It asked me 3 separate times how to bandage a burn :glare:
 
EMT-B passed
71 questions...im pretty sure I got the last one wrong also...
 
EMT-B - 72 questions - Passed -had to wait all weekend to find out tho. :wacko:
 
Stopped at 88 questions and passed (YAY!) It took me about 45 minutes. And by the way, the NC state exam was much much harder than the National but I passed it too.

Man, I feel sorry for those that have to take both a state and national test. Here in Nebraska you just have to pass the National.

I live near the NC/SC state line and SC only recognizes NR so I wanted to have it in case I choose to work there. SC pays better than NC.

You can get a provisional SC license. They will give you a year or up to the expiration of your NC license. You have that time to acquire your NREMT.

The test is designed to stop you after you show competance. You don't get to choose. That's why every person has a different number of questions for the test they took.

Lets say you're doing really well, then the questions get harder and harder. You keep getting them right then the test stops. You get them wrong then the questions get easier, then harder again, then easy, then hard. This goes on until it finds the level you answer correctly at (aka, you answer only easy correctly, or the hard questions are no problem). From that it determines how well you know the material and whether or not you passed.
 
before I started my class I volunteered to help be a mock pt. for the NREMT exam to kinda of give me a little heads up on what to expect. i think it really helped

by the way i made a 96 for first semester writen and check off and have about a 93 for a semester grade.
