### 1/5 — GARBAGE

*2021-12-08*

Medic for 20 years - these questions are laughable.  Lord help us if any of these questions are actually on any real test.

### 1/5 — Ridiculously overpriced

*2020-10-13*

I am studying for EMT and want something to supplement my training.
I checked it out reviewed the cost and concluded that it is not good value for money.

**Developer response:** We're sorry to see you found our product too expensive. We would be happy to discuss various pricing options with you. Please contact feedback@hltcorp.com or call 319-246-5271.

### 1/5 — Not accurate, stay away

*2020-04-25*

After taking an EMT course, my professor and I are both in awe of how inaccurate the question and answers are! Don’t taste your time with the app, its frustrating when you follow basic ABCs and patient assessment, like I did, and get multiple questions wrong! Where did these question/answers come from? Definitely not something worth using to study!!

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review, Jonathan. This app is based on the EMT Exam for Dummies book, and we want the content to be as correct and useful as possible. If you would be willing to let us know what needs to be changed, please email feedback@hltcorp.com with your concerns.

### 1/5 — bad

*2019-03-08*

Don’t waste your money. This app throws ABCs and an ordered patient assessment out the window. Inaccurate information. 
You’re better off reading the book and making flash cards.

**Developer response:** Thanks for your review. We're sorry to hear there are issues with the content. We would really appreciate more specific feedback so we can fix the issues!  Feedback@HLTcorp.com

### 1/5 — Not a great preparation for the NREMT

*2019-03-01*

I passed my NREMT through prior knowledge even though i spent a month preparing using this question bank which did little to prepare me for the test. Then when I passed they made it very difficult to cancel a subscription.

**Developer response:** I'm sorry you didn't have a positive experience! We put our heart and souls into creating create products. We would love to get more specific feedback from you. Please email us if you can!  Feedback@HLTcorp.com

### 1/5 — misleading information in the tests

*2019-01-21*

I am not sure where they are getting the material for these questions. The rationale behind one question in the medical/obstetric section stated that a pregnant woman should be transported in the supine position, which I found alarming. There was no mention of the risk of the gravid uterus compressing the inferior vena cava, resulting in supine hypotension.
Further, their numbers for the pediatric ‘Rule of Nines’ were all wrong. They listed each entire arm as 4.5%, and each leg as 9% (correct values are 9% and 13.5%, respectively).
Can anybody tell me who wrote these questions, and if they are at all qualified?
What is the point of studying the wrong information?
Anybody taking the information in this study guide at face value risks failing national registry.

**Developer response:** Hi there! Thank you so much for bringing this to our attention. We are always striving to provide the very best information for our users. Please reach out to nursing@hltcorp.com as soon as possible, and one of our Subject Matter Experts will get back to you in no time. Have a wonderful day!

### 3/5 — Highly disappointed in google pay

*2018-12-30*

I’ve passed my nremt from studying and using multiple tools including this one. However, I opted to pay for just one month because my time frame to take the test was only one month. I canceled my subscription and after that one month was up and I was still getting charged. I tried to get a refund and google pay won’t even refund me. They’ve gotten $30 from me and refuse to refund it. Even though my account says INACTIVE SUBSCRIPTION. I now have an iPhone and I refuse to ever have anything to do with androids. Until I can contact how I can be refunded I’m giving this app 3 stars. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

**Developer response:** Hello,

We're so sorry about this! Please reach out to us at nursing@hltcorp.com so we can rectify this situation for you.

### 3/5 — Helpful

*2018-05-07*
