The whole thing, IMO, is designed to test your cognitive ability. You're tested on how well you know the material and your ability to retain the information. Also, how well you take tests is a factor.

I took the CBT Paramedic test this morning around 10:45 am got done 15 minutes past noon, test stoped me at 81 questions. Waiting for results still, will update with new post containing if I passed or failed when I get the results.

I think I had an issue with trauma cause it felt like almost all my questions where traumatic related respitory issues.
I only had 3 rythem strips, no drug calcs at all, only a handfull of operation questions, no ACLS questions. the test ended with a really easy question which scares me!
