I personally loved the long class hours, i learned so much, and I was heavily invested. Had an AMAZING instructor, I’m currently on the LAST step after graduating and that’s just the NREMT. I wish class was longer lol.

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

That’s awesome! Good luck on the NREMT you got this:)

[@parkerv6]

Thankyou man. About to go into EMT school in a few weeks and it’s good to hear what other people experienced.

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

You got this! Good luck I’m glad it helped:)

[@ILoveFood0911]

Well that was 5 months ago and it's a 4 month course, how'd it go

[@ab86ed]

@@ILoveFood0911 I want to know as well 😅😅

[@ILoveFood0911]

@@ab86ed I just got through midterms, fuckin adventure 😂 best advice I can give is read the fuck out of the book. It sucks but it's the truth. Book. Book. Book. Also get a study group asap, most classes are stiff at first but get comfortable quick. make friends to study with and read the book!

[@ab86ed]

@@ILoveFood0911 thank you so much for the advice! I have EMT crash course book, I noticed that chapter 7, Anatomy/Physiology/ Medical Terminology is the most important one before starting my training so i am doing my best to know as much as i can and yes I am losing it 😵‍💫😵‍💫

[@PSouthard411]

This was more informative of what to expect than any of the other videos I've watched to try and prepare for next semester. Thanks man

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

Awesome! I’m glad it helped

[@calebdunn8703]

4 months… try 7 weeks😁 don’t recommend these shorter classes, I’m on week 5 now, haven’t retained much. The longer the better, you’ll be able to practice and study a lot more and focus your training on the specific chapter.

[@galenclaybrooks601]

Yea mine was 10 weeks

[@videogameshorts3117]

Mine was six graduated everything tho

[@CarlosChavez-fs4mz]

Mine is 8 weeks idk how people have done it in the past

[@mariafitts]

In California it’s about 290 for the class fee, 300 for the books they suggested , another 100 for blood pressure cuff and stethoscope, about 250 for the pants, two shirts, tactic boots and belt and black belt… and keep in mind lunch and gas.

[@mariafitts]

And if you have visible arm tattoos you’re gonna have to buy two under long sleeve shirts to cover them up. And I say two cause nobody wants to wash the same shirt every day

[@kamberhamilton]

Thank you for the advice. I start EMT school in 4 weeks

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

You’re welcome! Good luck!! You got this

[@zachannan23]

Passed my EMT school did a 6 week program do not recommend 9 chapters weekly…

[@jazzzmin11]

I just fail my midterm test. I’m so sad. For me the harder thing is to understand the language. I have how they give you so many trick question.

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

The questions are tough I’m sorry to hear that:( download one of the NREMT apps and study on that it will help a lot

[@Natecerv]

Paramedic coach will walk you through the EMT knowledge you need to know in order to pass NREMT.

[@ne9524]

But not the actual class tho before the nremt

[@ryannmccay2731]

I’m doing it in 3 weeks 50 pages a day man we’re doin 3-4 chapters a day

[@jeffersonrodriguez8008]

I have zero knowledge, if I were to go into a class straight outta high school with no knowledge what should I prepare for and do and if I should learn prior knowledge for a better experience, where should I get this info?

[@XOXO-ks4ro]

Watch videos on it! I’m now a medic & I did EMT right out of high school as well. Paramedic coach & taking EMT prep questions helped me a lot.

My first day is tomorrow I’m so nervous but happy at the same time

Were you reading emergency care brady....

[@gabbyhone4222]

love it

[@StrangerThoughts-hn7mi]

Hi. I was wondering if your quizzes were multiple choice based or open. Or maybe both? Thanks.

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

They were multiple choice, but the way that they are set up could be different depending on where you are going to school.

[@jerrycarbonell5166]

Can I go into emt course without any knowledge of anything or is that suicide

[@jessalper1104]

Don’t. Prepare prepare prepare !!

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

It will definitely be harder but I would say if you’re willing to put in the work you can do it!

[@JasonSwihart-bt2od]

How would you recommend preparing?

[@nervinsnumbers3684]

How’s the pay ??

[@jamesgrihalva2114]

It depends on the area but not great, from $12 an hour to $17 an hour

[@outboardgull5285]

Don't get into EMS for the pay, from what I hear, at least in the States, it shit. There are more opportunities down the line if you become a Paramedic or Flight Medic, or if you go into Nursing you can make several times what you'd make as an EMT. It's great for the experience and the connections but not for the $$$.

[@noelmcintyre6766]

Lol you said 4 hours... Try 7
