The question closely resemble registry and I love the feedback they give when you answer a question wrong and takes you back to the reading material so you can understand it better 10/10 ### 5/5 — Perfect and easy *2019-10-07, version 6.7.3* Just as easy an explainable as the EMT version. I passed the National registry with the EMT and I feel confident with the medic version. ### 5/5 — Well Prepared *2019-10-06, version 6.7.3* This app is worth the money. My classmates and I shared between this and JBL practice testing. The structure of the questions are longer and more complex than the NREMT CBT. Never felt like I had repeat questions and the variety within the different subjects was great. The explanations give references to where you can find the answer in the Nancy Caroline’s Emergency Care in the Streets. Great product no crashing or force stop, fluid mechanics. Would recommend for anyone preparing for the CBT. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to leave us a kind review! We are so glad to hear you passed your CBT exam, and that we were able to assist in the process. We would love to hear more about your story for consideration in a larger testimonial.

Congrats again! -April ### 5/5 — better than I imagined .. *2019-10-06, version 6.7.3* very well explained in a nutshell, you really memorize what you learn ### 5/5 — Valuable study tool! *2019-09-05, version 6.7.3* This app is legit and is, in my opinion, priced way lower then what it is worth. This was my primary study tool for the national registry for a month before I took the test. The different terms and definitions you learn in the app will come in extra handy when you take your test. Took my test today and found out 3 hours later that I passed! Take my advice and get this app and start studying if you're serious about this test. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to leave us a kind review!

Just mention that April reached out to you. :) Thanks again! ### 5/5 — I passed NRP *2019-07-27, version 6.7.3* I was given a lot of tools to help succeed. Honestly, this app was hands down one of my most valuable assets. This is absolutely necessary for study material. ### 5/5 — Helpful *2019-07-26, version 6.7.3* This app helped me study for NREMT-P. I’ll continue to use it to keep my thinking skills strong! ### 5/5 — I cannot say enough good things about this app *2019-06-27, version 6.7.3* I failed my first attempt at the NREMT-P exam. I bought this app and studied almost entirely with just this app. Took it today and my exam stopped at 80 questions. I passed! My only complaint is that the app forgot which questions I flagged more than once. ### 5/5 — Christine C. *2019-06-26, version 6.7.3* I used this app primarily to study for the NREMT-P. I was in and out in 37 minutes , having had the test close at 80 questions. I passed on the first try . I strongly recommend this as well as studying Nancy Caroline . ### 5/5 — Great job pocket prep!! *2019-06-25, version 6.7.3* I bought the 612 questions for this app and used it primarily to study for the NREMT-P. I finished all the questions with 73% average and then made sure I got the bar fully green. Just found out today that I passed the national on my first try! Thanks pocket prep for everything!! ### 5/5 — Solid purchase *2019-05-17, version 6.7.3* Hovered between average 67-72% passing on the practice quizzes. Def helped me distinguish a couple key points that I saw on registry-P. Passed my first time, would def recommend for a huge pool of long diverse questions that force you to think outside the box ### 5/5 — Passed NREMT-P on my first attempt *2019-05-04, version 6.7* I used this EMT version app to study for my EMT-b and the paramedic version for my NREMT-P and I passed both tests on my first attempt. Easily worth the money ### 5/5 — Passed first attempt *2019-04-29, version 6.7* Used this app for a few months before the NREMT and I passed my first attempt. Great app! ### 5/5 — Paramedic *2019-04-27, version 6.7* Do not use this as your only guide to passing NREMT. Use this along with other products like Kaplan Qbank and Munden interactive. But do all of pocket prep until you are 100% and you will be fine. Remember a lot has to do with nerves and not taking your time to read the whole question. Good luck everyone ### 5/5 — It’s great!!! *2019-04-16, version 6.7* Passed it the first time!!! Has great explanations on why the answer is correct or incorrect. ### 5/5 — Needs updating *2019-02-22, version 6.7* There are some good questions and information available on this app. There are some questions that are not in line with recent National Registry Information. Also I paid for the premium access to have access to 600 questions. It worked great until I reached around question250 ish and the app rebooted and kicked me out of premium access. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Wants me to pay twice *2018-09-27, version 6.5.6* I’ve already purchased the app, if it requires a one time purchase why is it making me re purchase this app again?? I haven’t deleted it or anything just signed me out and making me repay again and I refuse ### 1/5 — Total waste of money! *2018-08-06, version 6.5.4* This is the worse NREMT paramedic prep app out. The group that puts out this app has no idea of basic physiology. I actually sent them several errors that came out of their app and they didn’t have enough of a grasp of physiology to even understand the errors I had pointed out. I would steer well clear of this app since there are other options. ### 1/5 — DO NOT PURCHASE *2018-06-15, version 6.5.3* It is distressing that the makers of this app allow it to remain on the market as is. It is filled with incorrect answers, typos, sentences that don’t make sense. For the amount they ask us to pay, it should be done in a competent way. Answer Example: “If the patient was experiencing eclampsia, he/she would........” really? Developers are so lazy they cannot properly edit? There are mistakes in treatment too. It is a shame to waste money and allow developers to be so sloppy. Shame on you people! ### 2/5 — Not happy *2020-07-01, version 6.7.9* I was told I would have a guarantee money back so I purchased this app. Now you guys are saying your canceling this app and I have to pay for the new one?? Really shady.. I will be using something else to prepare for my exam thanks for taking my money. ### 2/5 — Not worth the money. *2018-02-21, version 6.4* It glitches a lot and freezes. I’ve seen multiple wrong answers. These questions are long and and the NREMT-P questions were short and to the point. I did learn a few things from it though. This app has lots of questions on pharm classes and such and didn’t have a single one on the exam. It’s ok if you are just trying to learn but if you are preparing to take the NREMT-P then their are probably better options out there. ### 2/5 — Decent experience. *2017-11-09, version 6.3.2* Good overall questions. Some of the rational does not constitute rational rather an explanation why they feel this is the right answer. Some questions aren't national standard. Some are not correct in any standard of medicine. ### 3/5 — I’m Wary... *2018-03-05, version 6.4* I was an EMT for 3 years, a paramedic for 6 years, and taught medic school for 4. I took NR in 2008, but let my license lapse when I went back to school. I am retaking NR after being out of the field for 4 years. I think this app is okay for the most part, however certain questions give me pause and I wonder how in tune the writers are with NR. For example, a question described Cushing’s Triad as “Hypertension with reactive bradycardia and decreased respiratory effort...” “DECREASED respiratory effort” is a completely inaccurate description of a Cushing’s patient. They could have used so many different words (i.e. irregular, ataxic, Biot’s, abnormal, etc.) but the use of “decreased respiratory effort” is patently false. Because much has changed since I left the field, I am left wondering if some of my wrong answers are due to my own lack of knowledge of industry updates or incorrectly written questions. Thus, I wouldn’t advise anyone to rely solely on this app for NR prep. The upside to this app: The UI is great, very easy to use and intuitive. The explanations are helpful (assuming they are correct) and I like how you can keep track of your progress. Suggestion to developers: Maybe considering adding a feature that allows users to easily report a bad question. This might allow learning opportunities for everyone involved. ### 4/5 — Worth it! *2019-12-13, version 6.7.6* Between this and JBLearning it got my through 1st time go. Just make sure you do all the questions! ### 4/5 — NREMT Prep *2019-07-26, version 6.7.3* I had this app for about a year. I used it to help me study throughout my Paramedic class. It was definitely worth the money since other online prep sites charge monthly. It had great questions and a lot of them, as well! I loved the daily notification to study as well as the daily question. I did feel that some questions were worded weird and may not have had the most accurate answer. Also, most of the questions were very long and wordy. The NREMT-P questions were pretty short but they definitely got you thinking. Over all, great app! I passed on the first try! ### 4/5 — Well I passed *2019-02-25, version 6.7* I took the NREMT P the other day and passed it first time. I used this app as well as fisdap study tool and job learning. This app has much more difficult questions which I felt like better prepared me for my test. If you are like me reading the text book puts me to sleep and I got a lot out of using this app. I also enjoy how it telling you where to fine the info if you question the answers. Either way I have been recommending it to people who are about to take the exam. Good luck. -Mark ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Passed on my first test! *2021-07-01, version 6.7.9* I used primarily this app for studying. I went through over 500 of the 600+ questions. I finished my paramedic NREMT test just over 80 questions. Well worth the investment. ### 5/5 — BEST NC / NREMT study App *2020-09-06, version 6.7.9* If you are a North Carolina paramedic/student and/or studying for the NREMT, this is the BEST app. Sources are factual, questions are realistic to both the NC state exam and NREMT exam. Wording is very similar as well. HIGHLY recommend this to any paramedic student. Passed both my NREMT and NC paramedic exams on the first attempt because of this app. ### 5/5 — National Registry test *2020-08-07, version 6.7.9* This app helped me pass the National Registry exam. Keep in mind that it’s important to study the explaination after answering a question. It gives you the reason why the correct answer is correct but also definitions for the wrong answers too. ### 5/5 — Great app *2020-02-21, version 6.7.6* I passed the paramedic exam first try. I used this as a supplement to other study sources and it is great, definitely recommend! ### 5/5 — Valuable asset *2020-01-29, version 6.7.6* I passed the NREMT Paramedic exam in 75 questions and was positive I passed it as I walked out the door. I felt the exam was very easy and I was prepared for every question and confident in all my answers. The bulk of my exam was in non traditional medical questions. HAZMAT , Operations, Radio communications, and triage. I didn’t ever expect my exam to have the bulk of my questions to be non ALS. I do not believe I would have been as prepared if not for the APP. It forced me to study operational questions. I did questions over and over until I nearly got 100 percent on the sections. All I can say is don’t neglect the non medical sections. ### 5/5 — NREMT-P *2019-12-28, version 6.7.6* I paid for the full version, and it was completely worth it. The only studying I did before the exam was with this app. I did all 600 questions in one day, took my exam the next, and passed. ### 5/5 — I PASSED THE NREMT-P EXAM ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT *2019-12-05, version 6.7.6* After learning about and utilizing the EMT Prep App, it was a no brainer in how I should prepare for the paramedic course. At first the questions were extremely difficult as they didn’t match the course syllabus; however, over time they became relevant and easier to understand. It was a sign of growth and held me accountable. The QOTD and 10 question quick exams were I valuable and really prepared me for the registry. I highly recommend it. Here’s a secret, I still take the daily EMT exams and will continue to take the Paramedic exams as well. #neverstoplearning ### 5/5 — Passed Paramedic NREMT *2019-12-05, version 6.7.6* Studied for National using primarily this app and some notes from class and I passed National in under 100 questions. As long as the developers continue to update this app/ questions with protocol changes and updated medical research, then it will remain the top study guide for National. Again, I used this for about 80% of my studying two weeks out, everyday for 4-5 hours a day, and I passed with a high score. Thank you PovketPrep. Idk how you do it (actually curious about your development process!) but this app has helped me stay a good responder for years and continues to do so. Very, very good company and tech. Thank you for all you do! Blessings, Pete Paramedic, Los Angeles ### 5/5 — Excellent *2019-11-03, version 6.7.6* I passed my NREMT On my first attempt, was cut off at question 80. I studied only this app and nothing else all during my ride time until I could test. Which was approximately 3 months. I did the 10 questions tests every day until went through the entire test bank and then started over. **Developer response:** Thank you for taking the time to leave us a kind review! And congrats on passing your NREMT exam! We would love to get in touch with you to hear more about your experience for a larger testimonial. If interested, send us a message. In the app, tap Settings, Help and Message Center, then the green icon to drop us a message. -April :) ### 5/5 — Great supplementary app *2019-10-30, version 6.7.3* This app is awesome. Perfect for on the go when you don’t have your study material with you. Taking short quizzes periodically throughout the day makes it easy to stay in the paramedic mindset while not wearing yourself out with hours of studying. When you get something wrong it gives you an explanation as to why and you can retake the quizzes until you pass with 100%. It’s worth the small price for the bank of more than 600 questions. I used this on the go during work, as well as other study sites when I could sit down on a computer, and passed the paramedic with the minimum number of questions asked. **Developer response:** Thanks so much for taking the time to leave us a review. We’re so thrilled you’re enjoying the app. We wish you the best! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
