I DO get to test! Our program director was out of town the week after the semester ended and he called when he got back. There were a couple of people in my class that successfully finished the class but were lacking credits in other areas for graduation. They are not allowed to test...

Does anyone have any helpful advice?

Are there any options other than my school granting authorization to take the EMT-P exam? I have graduated with an associate degree, have a 3.2 GPA and passed my capstone course with a "B" but because my practice test for EMT-P was short by 2 points I am not being granted authorization to test...
