the_rogueEMT Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 I have already taken an EMT-B class and passed it but I did not pass the NR. I am wondering what everybody on this site thinks of this place and if it is a good deal. I just need to pass take a refresher course to pass the NR. The class started the 1st of June and ended at July 29th. the class was every Tues. and Thurs. I still have all my notes from class and still have the knoweldge of the didactic and practical parts of the class. My final grade for the NR was 74 so I just missed it by one point http://www.unitekeducation.com/EMT_Boot_Ca...&Itemid=134
jsadin Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Why not just study some more and retake the NR test? Do you have to take an entire EMT class again just to retest?
nytrauma911 Posted August 1, 2008 Posted August 1, 2008 Just retest. Did you fail it 3 times already and need a refresher course? That is the way it was in the past, not sure what it is now.
firedoc5 Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 If you missed it by just one point you may not even need to study, but do it anyway. Do you have any idea what your weak area(s) were?
jwraider Posted August 2, 2008 Posted August 2, 2008 Unitek can be good if the right person goes through at the right time. One good thing is you stay in the hotel and focus 100% on the course (something like learning a foriegn language through immersion). But the material comes too fast though if you're not already familair with it (I know you are). You can't fall behind! They do lecture with frequent tests and quizzes from 8am to around 4pm. After dinner everyone divides up into groups and goes through skill stations. If I were you I'd look into other options because of the price of the course. Do you really need to be an EMT within 2 weeks? You might find other better optios (retaking the test) or better programs that take extra time to focus on weak points. Good luck!!
