### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-08-06*

The EMS guides and infographics are excellent. They provide clear, concise information that's easy to understand and reference. It's been a huge help in my medic class and on the job.

### 5/5 — The best!

*2024-07-28*

This app is the best for EMT exam prep! The quizzes and rationales are incredibly detailed and helped me feel confident going into my exam again and I passed!!! Highly recommend it!!

### 5/5 — Such a helpful app

*2023-05-05*

I loved the ability to see all the medications with every peice that you shoudl know accompanied with them, as well as the daily questions. Such a helpful app!!!

### 3/5 — App is good but misleading

*2022-12-22*

Good questions, and detailed reasoning. Only complaint is you have to purchase each section separately. For example: purchasing “paramedic” does not give you access to “REMAC” and no where on the App Store or its website does it specify each section is a separate purchase.
I also emailed for clarification and never received a response.

### 5/5 — Excellent app

*2021-10-13*

I passed my remac, this app is very clear and has multiple questions to prepare you towards passing the exam. Multiple questions, specific to the updated remac protocols.

### 5/5 — Worth the money

I used this app for about a month prior to taking my mac. Just got a 90. I hope this app is around 3 years from now.

### 5/5 — Must-have

*2021-09-22*

This app is a must-have for any medic in training.

Get into at the start of medic school all the way until the minutes before your REMAC. 
Best app for REMAC.

Saw plenty of questions on this app that were on the actual exam. The developer is quick to answer any questions by phone or email. Highly recommend REMAC PARAMEDIC PREP to all New and seasoned Medics. Thank you Miguel!

**Developer response:** Thanks so much for your support!

### 5/5 — Must Have App

*2021-01-21*

Just finished passing my NYCREMAC and this app was a big part of it. Being able to take these tests anywhere anytime increased my confidence immensely using it during internship and prepping for the REMAC. That sentence you skimmed over in the GOP? There’s a question in here on it. Easy to use fast and rare if any crashing. Very few issues and when I did have one the person running this app handled it within minutes. 5/5 will recommend to all

**Developer response:** We appreciate your support! Thank you!
