Just wanted to clear some things up Just wanted to clear some things up. 1) I am not interested in ems for the money. Just because I asked what the earning potential is did not mean that I had dollar signs in my eyes. 2) Why am I interested in the ems field? -ever since I was little...

Some guys like fm emt really contribute to this forum, and others like urself premedtim do not. Funny how I can easily infer that from only a couple weeks of lurking and then posting. No wonder this forum is so unpopulated.

hmm, anyone?

Just thought it would be interesting to learn what drew you in to the ems field and/or why you chose to pursue a career in ems. 1) What is the certifications do you have? 2) What do you do specifically? (EMT, R.N., etc.) 3) What is the most rewarding thing about your job? 4) What...

There is nothing wrong with going to a community college getting ur 60 transferrable units and then going on to a 4 year and obtaining a degree. If anythign it saves money. As for me, I am at a university already but if I had to do it over again I would definately consider that route.

Wow by no means was I saying I am in it for the money at all. Anyways, I will choose what is best for me. Thanks for SOME helpful input.

Ok you kind of lost me heh. I would probably get my associate's degree in a field other than paramedics since there isn't exactly an as major or aa major at the cc i would be going to. -I would be taking the 8 week course offered in livermore to obtain my emt-b certification.

I go to UC Merced. I have put a lot of thought into this for the past months. I really wanted to go to a tech school such as MMI, but would rather keep motocross as a hobby. My father went to ncti (that's where I will go for my emt-b) and then went to the firefighter academy and became a...

I am currently 18 years old and attend a university in California. After reluctantly (parents wanted me, but grandparents wanted me even more) spending a semester at my university, I am definately not motivated or cut out for typical college degree. I have a lot of interest in the ems field...
