Hi Guys.
Sorry I am a little bit pissed at the moment.
I was in EMT class the last month, always have at a great score - always above 94%(work book and all test handed out by the staff).
I passed together with 5 guys (out of 25) all station at the state practical exam and I did dozens of medical call already.
So I thought I know my stuff. As I said "I Thought".
I also thought I was well prepared, I did research, made all my questions, bought books about the NREMT exam with sample questions.
Everybody I talked to (how is also an EMT or higher, ever the instructors) told me, Mike your are fine, you will have absolutely no problem.
(of course I always doubt this, as I know my problems with the English language and a bunch of knowledge too)
I say this so detailed, because I try to explain the pre-story of this and I was not nervouse.
Now I took the NREMT EMT-B written this morning and I have no idea what happend.
Most (50%+) of the questions I had to guess, I have never seen the topic of this question before, I have had no idea what to answer.
I checked out my book (I got in class) for these topics, they are not in the book.
So, my fellow EMTs, how did you pass the NREMT?
Did you experience the same as I did this morning? How did you prepare for this.
Does somebody know on which book(s) the NREMT is based of? Its defenitely no on the Brady one.
And if course I am open to every advice you can give me.
And I know one think, if I really failed, so 90% of my class will fail too (they failed already the final class exams).
(and I am sorry for every mistake, the spell check is not working)
