Wow so a year from now
Basically. I waited two years before my call. They were telling us that they were going to have us (high list numbers) in the April class with Mel. That never happened. Now they have almost exhausted the list for 5003. So maybe 2 Or 3 classes for exam 6003 to be exhausted

For people who want to go to ems? Good or bad

Good and bad. I heard 50% fdny emt have less than 3 years on the job, meaning people a lot of people without experience.

For you guys trying to get on its good, because they changed the class sizes for the academy from 60 to 80 to 120 to 180. So they will exhaust the list a lot quicker and you'll be able to get on quicker.

It is NOT a quick process where we can give you an answer, they can call 180 people for the academy and only hit the low 100s on your list. Could be anywhere from 2-6 academy classes before you're in.

Hey everyone,

I'm test 6003 list 3xx i completed everything. I had to re-weigh though but I accomplished making my goal weight. Before my medical my investigator told me that i'll prob wont be getting into the july class but will be looking at october instead. I called them to ask what the next step is since I made my goal weight from 220 to 190 (goal was 192) but i havent herd from them yet. My friend who is in the July class now says that i should be ready to get into this next academy. I just wanted to know what some other people thought about my current situation. thanks

At this point it is all dependent on how many people they call for the next class. As I stated earlier. They can fill a class just by calling the 180 others ahead of you who take the job. Or they can clear out As far as 500 people to fill the spots. It is all dependent on how many people they can go through. Just sit tight. You're almost there bro

This really is the best answer. There's just no way to know. I'm trying to remain optimistic at 16x. But he's right. The possibility exists that they don't even clear 5003.

It was opened for July but then it closed. Figures with my luck I get my certification in August. I was hoping someone might know if they will open up the filing again soon.
Keep checking

Keep checking. Remember your looking for Emergency Medical Specialist - EMT. Not the trainee one that opens up soon

I know 5003 left off somewhere in the 1400's. Does any one know how many in total on that list? From past history I see they go through about 300-500 people to make one class. So I'm thinking that guys on 6003 up to the 200's might have a realistic chance at October? And from what I understand once your jobs are notified you can expect to be in the next class? Am I on the mark here at all?
