I imagined as much. However in the PDF I managed to pull up from the national registry, some of the programs listed had a 80% pass rate with the same amount of students, in comparison to the 68% displayed by the program I'm currently set to begin. I'm going to stick it out though, and take...

Yeah, I plan on getting as much information from as many different avenues as I can. Thanks for the reply. I haven't asked the school directly, but I did look up reviews for the program, which I didn't find. I did however pull up a PDF from the national registry that compares states and...

I'm set to start an EMT B certification this fall and recently heard something concerning. I spoke with someone who went through the same program at the same school, and they failed to pass the NREMT twice. He said its because the course neglected to include a lot of information that is in the...

I'm currently an aspiring EMT/FF. I am currently prescribed klonopin to take on a daily basis. How big of an obstacle would that be to get into an EMS/Fire program, and how big of an obstacle would it be to getting hired as an EMT/Firefighter? I appreciate any information or advice, thanks...

So I'm enrolled in an EMT B program, finish up in December. I'm in Maryland in the Baltimore city area. What are my best chances for employment as an EMT B in this area? Also I was overseas for my teenage years, so I never got my license. Unfortunately in Maryland, unless your 25 years of age...

I'm starting an EMT B course in about a week at my local community college. The total cost rings up to about 1,300 dollars, so I'm hoping to get some form of financial aid. From the other threads I've looked at regarding this subject, the price seems to the the norm in the Northeast. I'm taking...

My community college in MD is charging me 1300 for EMT B. I think its the whole Northeast thats ridiculously expensive. You didn't see any financial aid options? I'm hoping mine will be covered.
