the 100% directionless thread

haha, I did the same thing on those. After filling up the white board with math I said eff it. Does your school require you to pass?
 
The first time the college had us take it was after we were getting off one of our internship shifts. So I just got off a very busy 24 hour shift drove there and took the test. I was too tired to really put any effort into the 200 question test (as was the rest of the class). A couple of the questions wanted us to calculate drip rates for meds, I looked at the question and said "yeah right, option C looks good enough".

At least with this next test we are able to schedule it.

Haha you sound like me when I take math tests.

We didn't get a white board or scratch paper.

And we honestly don't know. We tried asking our program director but he is very good at avoiding answered. All he has said is that we should show improvement from our first and our second scores. I got a 79% overall so I guess I just need an 80% to show improvement lol

When I just don't care then I'll do that. "87 looks like a good answer" or when I'm tired and don't care about the test "I'll pick B. I haven't picked B in a while" haha
 
Because we'll be calculating drip rates in the field without a calculator. Ha.
 
Finally. Got my C-NPT exam authorization to test... and the UNMH neonatal transport team just posted an opening that medics are encouraged to apply for.
 
I wonder under the Education/Training Category or another sections , if @Chimpie or another admin, would make a CCP-C/FP-C Section for all of us t to discuss those specific questions and certifications. :)

Generally we try to avoid creating more subforums, and the education forum would be perfect for your postings. We've discussed adding a CCT subforum in the past but realistically it just will not have enough topics in it to necessitate a private home. It used to be possible to tag threads, maybe we can see about adding that back?

Also @beano I believe the Advanced Medical Discussions subforum has been around for a fair bit as well...
 
Well I went and signed up for a fire science class...
 
Traitor...
Haven't fully decided if I want to go fire but if I decide to go I don't want the fact I don't have an academy to hold me back from a city fire medic job
 
In other news:
Written final exam: done
OSCE: done
capstone: done
elective rotation (interventional cards): in progress
PANCE: February 17
Just try not to panic. It's only the PANCE...
 
PANCE= worst acronim ever.

Maybe I will feel different 6 weeks from now but I was way more nervous for finals and OSCE.
 
I didn't realize they just let anyone enroll in special ed. I thought you had to, you know... have problems and the like.
My special helmet says otherwise.

Also, one of our biggest hospitals is on strike and they are only accepting burn patients (only burn center for a huge area). Yay to even more bed delays.

Man, I have real problems with a hospital going on strike. I understand that employees have to air their concerns somehow, but that sounds almost unfathomably selfish.
 
Found out I got assigned to proctor the SMR station for a paramedic NR skills test on Saturday. Debating failing anybody who puts a patient on a board...

If you have everything together, you can walk in to the office and out within an hour with your card.
