You forgot Scene Safety and Open the Airway.
I just took the test on the 21st too. I think I passed but I too hate the wait.
HA! I took the NREMT-B test the first week of Dec 06, and stilllllllllllllllllllllllllllll haven't heard a thing! You're right something does have to be done. On a related topic.... I found the NREMT test ridiculous. We were all taught/lectured on the new protocols for AHA-CPR, etc....and the test did not, in any way whatsoever reflect anything that we'd been taught. I've gone with the notion that "if I passed that test, I'll kiss your butt in Court House Square!" I passed with all A's every single every other test, including our state test. There were questions that had not one answer choice to relfect what we'd been taught. I mentioned this to the "tester" after the test and in regards to one specific questions, was told that that was a "TYPO" that had been on the test for YEARS!!!!!!!!!!! UNBELIEVABLE... which is what I told him. Also...3/4 of the way into the test the "tester" announced the following..." OH, BTW, all of the questions are based on OLD protocols...!!!" Well wasn't that a nice time to inform us of that... like we hadn't figured that out already! I was so angered by that time that I just in no way believe I passed. I was soooooooooooooo frustrated. (I call him the "tester" because I won't dignify him with any other title... any idiot could have given that test with better information, integrity) Anyways.. it's been over 4 weeks now and NOTHING!i took the test for the 2nd time dec 18 and still have not heard back! there has got to be something done here people! lol

THAT SUCKS!! I took the test for the first time (and failed) on Dec 4 and it was graded on the 11th. Took the test again on the 18 and not even close. This is rediculous I think. NR said that they only grade tests from about 3:30-5:00 each evening. Thats insane. What do they do with the rest of thier damn time?
The test wasn't as I expected, but it was somewhat. I knew that something was going to be different than all the book tests we were taking but oh well.
Here's to missing 70% by one question and paying another 70 bucks - one expensive question if you ask me.
