    Anyone take the C.R.A.T. (Certified rhythm analysis tech) test?

    HAH! yah i hear yah i figured the chances were low that someone on here may have taken it but doesnt hurt to ask. From what ive read as far as the practice tests and the study guide it seems to be pretty basic stuff. Im taking it thursday so i got a couple more days to study. THANKS GUYS!

    friend offered to start a paramedics program TOMORROW. Bad idea? lookin for opinions!

    here the cost is between 3500-7500 depending where you go. my concern is 12 hours isnt much time to completely rearrange your life to start a super intense program. just because something falls into your lap doesnt make it a good opportunity. maybe im just a worry wort :rofl:
