i have a quick question before i take the exam (tomm.), i was wondering, if the time limit stops you, does that count against you?

thanks!

Street Shark - Look at Rid's discussion of how the NREMT exam works: http://www.emtlife.com/showthread.php?t=9056

You must correctly answer a certain number of questions, and essentially demonstrate understanding of the material. Once you pass that threshold, the test shuts off. It might be at 80 questions, and it might be at 130 questions (or more, I think).

If you run out of time, you can't pass that threshold... therefore you fail.

Why do you think you will run out of time? Do you have a diagnosed learning disability? If so, you can apply for extra time to take the exam.

I think they give you a generous amount of time, took my Paramedic test 2 years ago I was in and out of the testing room in 20 or 25 minutes and it shut off in 80 questions. Just ignore the timer and take the test.
