Well I guess theres not much help here anyways.

You also might end up like the 3 people I gave examples of earlier. When I pass I know ill be helping people and not hurting them. As I mentioned earlier I passed with a 92% I dont have a false signature either....

If you read the title, this isnt about help. Although help is appreciated it is about how NREMT is a joke. It isnt a bad attitude towards them, its a bad attitude towards the test. Of course the guy that is posting here that helps write the test doesnt like the idea of someone thinking its...

I passed my basic written the first time too. I was actually the first person done in my class. Took about 20 minutes. We will see if you pass medic NR your first time. If you pass the class of course.

Another worthless post. Denial of what? I have asked for help several times and received helpful information that I have already applied.

I have taken the test twice. How many times have you taken it? Like I said before, being a paramedic is my job. Its what I want to do and what I will do. It is a failed system. Someone needs to do something about it.

That is not an acceptable way out. Being a firemedic is the perfect job for me, as well as serveral other people in the same boat as me. When I do pass ill have to see about doing something to change the testing system.

Ive hit all the books as I mentioned in my first post. Cover to cover 3 times each. I always prepare the night before. Its hard to be positive knowing theres dumber people that pass on the first try. However I still try to have a positive attitude. I tried the "dont overthink the...

The only advice I have gotten so far is "see through the question" kind of comments. That isnt helping.

That doesnt make any sense. Just because someone has passed a unfair test doesnt mean they are prepaired to be a paramedic. The reason I made this post what for help on the testing format and clues to look for. Everyone keeps attacking me so I am telling them why I feel I have been...

Nothing about me, thats about NR.

The legal liabilities are the problem. NR is licensing the wrong people. Why cant the credibility of the college be put online rather than having a profit corporation give the test? EMS for the most part is following protocols. Theres no arguing that. Theres a reason protocols exist...

Basic 1- "we dont need to backboard this 85 year old woman with neck pain, she only fell out of bed" Now became Medic 1- Overdosed someone with a 14mg bolus of morphine Basic 2- Refused to put a Pt with COPD on a nonrebreather or bag them. Vitals were shot. Now is a medic 2- Gave a PT...

I was referring to the assessment more than the history part. In real life, I cant think of one medic i know that has ever done a basic intercept. I dont beleive Nr is geared towards intercepts. Still, the first thing you do on an intercept is reassess, once again the info is available. I...

All 3 of the paramedics i mentioned earlier were basics that I worked with on a regular basis as basics until they became paramedics. Do you want me to give examples of how dumb they are?

Please dont start on RN's/LPN's that needs to be a new thread.

Then why cant military medics come back and be civilian medics? they have to retake the class. That doesnt make much sense to me. The NR sure DOES NOT display someones ability to retain knowledge. 3 paramedics at the company I work for all recently passed NR and CLEARLY do not have the...

I dont know either but I would like to find out.

The point isnt the kind of treatment. It is the testing process.

You cant look at a PT and tell if there breathing? How often there breathing? If it is suffiecent? What about LOC? Vitals? I find it hard to believe you walk on scene sometimes and those are the only 2 peices of information that you can possibly come up with.
