The National Registry Emergency Medical Responder (EMR) cognitive exam is a computer adaptive test (CAT). The number of items a candidate can expect on the EMR exam will range from 90 to 110. Each exam will have between 60 to 80 ‘live’ items that count toward the final score. The exam will also have 30 pilot questions that do not affect the final score. The maximum amount of time given to complete the exam is 1 hour and 45 minutes.
The exam will cover the entire spectrum of EMS care including: Airway, Respiration & Ventilation; Cardiology & Resuscitation; Trauma; Medical; Obstetrics/Gynecology; EMS Operations. Items related to patient care are focused on adult and geriatric patients (85%) and pediatric patients (15%). In order to pass the exam, candidates must meet a standard level of competency.
