yea great tips/info man, how are the instructors on teaching the ems material from your experience? I heard they are tough because they want you to pass
If your in tour 3, I can tell you the instructors are great. They do everything in their power to help you. They make it easy for you to pass. Honestly anyone who is nervous about it should relax. If I made it anyone can. I literally came into the academy knowing nothing cause I never did ems and didn't look at my book or notes once since I took the state almost 3 years ago. If you guys care enough about getting on to be on a forum, you will absolutely be fine. Just have fun.

Coming on here while already having passed and are already on the streets. Idk about the other guys on here but you've somewhat put my mind at ease bro. Need more guys like u that answer questions without a wiseass snarky remark. Good luck to u in your career , and I'm sure I'll have more questions for you in the coming days lol

I don't know why people are snarky on here. It's stupid. We all have goals and are trying to get there. I'll be honest, I want to go to fire. So at the hiring if you hear anything at the promotional post it please. At my hiring they said as long as your sworn in you can take it. Even if your in the academy. I just want to make sure that information is still accurate.

Fdhopeful33, if it makes you feel better I can tell you that AM didn't have anyone fail the state but PM had 2. I don't know any of the am instructors but obviously they are good if no one failed the state. You'll be fine bro. As I said before just have fun.

Couldn't really understand the machine. But it said that the last number called was 84 which I know isn't true. Does anyone know when they update that with the new numbers ?

Not sure cause I haven't picked mine yet. I'm assuming you will do it when you get to your station
