I had my oral interview for paramedic school today. I think it went pretty well. I found out that I scored the highest score on the entrance exam and was told that I’m in a “very competitive spot” for one of the seats in class. The only minor snafu is my lack of documented past EMT calls. A previous ambulance service that I worked for destroyed all of their past employment records and can’t (or won’t) verify my past calls. So, I’m going to call a supe from the good old days and see if I can get letter as a “good faith estimate” of my past calls. The program director said that would be enough to make the difference between getting in and maybe not.
I’m really excited that I’ve gotten this far … and I’ll know if I’m in by mid June.
Congratulations on getting this far!
Good luck! I am on vacation all next week. I will buy the coffee!

Your blog is amazing and I wish I would have found it sooner! I took my exam at TCC yesterday for the 2011-12 program. I feel like I am reading my own thoughts! I feel good about the test and am now onto interview prep. Any pointers???
Sorry i haven’t been around. How did you do?
