I'm in Las Vegas, NV. and plan to become an EMT at some point (I'm 20). I may move to another state soon and begin there. Right now I'm not in any EMT classes nor have I had any training. I've been doing a lot of self learning, and am not sure if what I'm learning is correct. I've mainly been trying to do Vocab words. Take a look at this please: http://quizlet.com/2...ab-flash-cards/ That link is 44 words I put together and learned 2 nights ago. I have them all memorized now (took me about an hour and a half) and now I'm looking for more to learn. Can you go through them and tell me if those are words I should be learning? Also sorry if some of the definitions are wrong. I have no clue what to learn for "self study" I just learn anything I think is EMT Related. I'd really like it if some of you who may read this could give me a list of important words.other things to learn. It'll give me something to do, and I really enjoy learning it. So yeah once again What should I be learning vocab. wise and anything else important that I'll need as an EMT if I'm not in a class yet. I think learning this before I actually enroll in a class will be good and I'll have a bit of a head start.. so I won't go in clueless. Thanks for your time and help.. I really do appreciate it.

Hey everyone.. I'm Kyle im 19 and I am from Las Vegas, Nv. I've always been interested in becoming an EMT so thought why not join here and read the forums see what I can learn & hear some stories. I find it inspiring reading things on sites like this. Good motivation for me. so im still really new to the whole EMT thing. I haven't taken classes or anything. Right now im looking at EMT classes I could take soon through AMR or Medic West maybe even NCTI not sure yet. not going to college either so hope it wont hurt. though I hear I can/should take a community college course for anatomy/physiology do you guys have any stories how you got started or any of you not go to college for this and just took the classes like I want to do? not sure what to say wanna get to know me feel free to do so. I like talking to people esp EMTs who are willing to talk. Wish I could find a mentor or something in Vegas that'd be great.
