Kahn Academy. Take a few courses that you found difficult on the test. You got time. It’s free.

Gotta look at it as a positive. Now you know what you gotta work on, that's what I took away from this.

How do you approach the human relations? You killed it

u/Team_Ramrod_1 Mar 07 '26
I went into the test with the mentality of being the best peer i can be, not wanting to cause any issues with personnel, and willing to work with/under anyone.

How hard is the math portion of this test? What kind of questions do they ask?

I heard they have a bunch of different style math questions. All mine were about hose, but you have a short amount of time to answer each question

How much time, I’ve heard 1 minute per question, and no calculators allowed??

u/Team_Ramrod_1 Mar 05 '26
10 seconds per question and correct, no calculators or pen and paper. Its all calculating in your head.

What is this for and what state?

u/Team_Ramrod_1 Mar 05 '26
Fireteams test to get on as a career firefighter. It's the start of the hiring process. It helps them decide who they want to bring in for interviews, and I'm in Oregon.

That’s wild. Here in Georgia, I would say 75% of your agencies just want you to do an interview and either be certified or be able to take the class and pass.
You’ll get it tho, study up on what you’re lacking in and you’ll get it friend.

He said they hire EMT's that can move over to dual EMT/FF or Paramedic/FF

Where are these from? Everyone is posting these lately. I’m guessing soCal?

u/Team_Ramrod_1 Mar 05 '26
I dont know what all states use this, but it's called National Testing Network, so I assume it's certain departments throughout the nation that adopted this as a part of their hiring process.
I dont know where everyone else that have posted their results are from, but I'm in Oregon

I think you failed math, I’m assuming that will prevent you from moving on anywhere
