I'm in Georgia where they recognize emt I but I'm planning to move back to my home state of California soon, which doesn't have intermediate. Should I go ahead and take my intermediate (3rd time) or take basic?
 
Reciprocity? Check with the EMSA of the county your moving too in Cali. If your already certified to a higher level, why limit your options by downgrading your cert? If your certified as an Intermediate I see no reason why the great state of CA wouldn't issue you a Basic card...
 
Become a medic!:P
 
Appreciate the advice. I'm going to take the Nremt again later this month for the third time. They changed it around a lil the first time I took it. I'm back to studying my soul off. Lol
 
You do know it's a computer adaptive test, and will change every time you take it, right?
 
I was thinking the same thing, especially after reading that he's on his third attempt. To the OP, don't worry about getting your credential reciprocated until you actually have your credential.

Some counties recognize the AEMT level.
 
Go medic, intermediate is rarely used out here. Just causes a weird grey area
 
There just has to be a reasonable limit to "I refuse to give up". Some people just aren't meant to pass credentialing exams.

Exactly!

Parents do their kids a HUGE disservice teaching them they can do anything they set their mind too. It's just not true. Some people are not cut out to be EMS providers.

Medicine isn't your cup of tea, no biggie! There's no shame in that! Find out something that is!

That's as close to a misanthropic statement as I think you've ever made. LOL
