I just finished talking with a student from Saddleback College (Junior College in CA), that gave me the stats on the percentage of pass/fail/dropped students in her class earlier this year. I quote: "...my class started off with 48 people, dropped to 20, only 13 of us passed with a B or higher...

While I agree with you somewhat, I also think this forum is a prime opportunity for students to interact with people that know what they're talking about. Heck, I've found some people in CA that have experience or even went to the same school I'll be attending. I'll admit, I start class this...

WOW! Thanks for the reply, that's really going to help me out. I ordered the Brady book 11th edition (Hardcover, woop woop!), and the amount of pages is staggering! I had no idea. One could easily get overwhelmed with a book of that magnitude, but I'll have a tremendous advantage (if I can...

Yea, I understand that. I tried posting on a previous "background check" thread that was 3+ years old, and the moderator told me to post a new one. That's why. Thanks for the tip.

Yea, If I figure out the textbook, I'm going to order it off amazon and start reading. I'll have about 3 months as well, and should be plenty of time to read everything over. I also have an old A&P book that I borrowed, that I'm going to look over too. Thanks for the input.

17 passed out of 50!?!? Well, sure some dropped but still...that's a lot of laziness right there. I hear nothing buy great things about the professors at Saddleback.

This reminds me of a chapter of Michael Chichton's book "Travels", where Michael himself had a really HOT pt and had trouble doing his job. Great book, btw.

...on to something COMPLETELY different. "Breaking Bad" anyone? Season 3 finale?

....so I'm kind of shooting myself in the foot for posting this...??? HAHA. :rolleyes:

Trying to get a head start on the material, as I'm starting my EMT-B course in the Fall of '10 and wondering if any of you have taken or currently taking an EMT-B course at Saddleback College (California), and what text book(s) they use. Tried emailing the Professors, but no response. Thanks! :P

Will a Civil Suit show up on a background check for an EMT-B course? My record is clean otherwise. Hoping it doesn't cause any problems... I understand this is more of a "law" type question, but I was wondering if anyone had problems with their record before participating in an EMT-B course...

What more can I do to prepare myself before I take my EMT-B course? I've been reading the forums and some of the scenarios, and honestly have no idea what some of you are talking about. BUT DAMMIT, I WANT TO! I'm hungry for knowledge in this field (nom nom nom). What book should I buy that...

Civil Suit Will a Civil Suit show up on a background check for an EMT-B course? My record is clean otherwise. Hoping it doesn't cause any problems...<_<

I'm a noob too, but not for long! <_<

Saddleback College I've looked into the Link2Life course(s), and they are a ridiculous amount of money ($1,000+??). Why pay that much when you can get a great education at Saddleback and shell out $300 for credits, books and a materials fee? I will be enrolling for the Fall 10' course and lab...

Just reading this article makes me hurt, ugh! I'm such a noob. :blush:

hehe, thanks buddy!

Hola!^_^

Yo, Firetender...what's it like to work in one of the most beautiful places in the world? Lucky :censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored:. (I'm referring to Maui of course).

See! This is what I'm talking about. Instant help. Thanks! I'm talking about the real acronyms btw, but I'm very interested in the origin of the FDGB. :P
