I was trying to find this information out, but don't see it on the ODEMSA EMT site.

I will be retaking the trauma portion over again on the EMT-B state exam (yea... I failed a critical criteria by being nervous, but I passed everything else)... but, nowhere does it say the number of times you can re-test. I naturally always think about the worst-case scenario (can't help it)... so what happens if I fail again :wacko: ?

Again, this is for the VA state exam.

Hiya, ya sound a lot like me, heh.. I don't know where in VA you are, but I took my state exam on the 16th (Pretty sure I failed the trauma section too,I believe I forgot O2 of all the things!)
Anyways, I took mine at the Springfield Campus (Northern Virginia Community College), I asked about retakes and one of the instructors said that there will be one on the 6th of January. I don't know whether or not you can take it there, but I would just call the school and see if you can sign up for retesting.

retest in va

Hi,

In Virginia you get one initial try and if you fail any part of that you can retest one more time. If you are unfortunate and fail again you must go back to class and take 36 hours of review. Then you can test again, good luck !
