These cards are ridiculously thorough. There are multiple questions and facts per card, so there may be only 296 cards, but with up to 10 questions/prompts per card you get more than you expect.Some cards have diagrams to be labeled.Others ask for definitions of critical words.There's an occasional crossword puzzle.Others (great cards!) give you quick scenarios and ask you for the correct treatments.Includes cards for the essential mnemonics (DCAP-BTLS, SAMPLE, TICLS etc.)Goes over even the minutia of anatomy and body systems.Covers every important aspect you see in your textbook for the class.Honestly, after using these, I think I reviewed just about everything that was every mentioned in my book.My only complaint is the format and packaging. I felt like these cards would've been better in book form, just because of how numerous and flimsy the cards are. But I can see why they chopped it all into cards to prevent it from seeming like to much to review. It does make the material a bit more approachable.Also, the box the cards come in is juuuuust big enough to contain them. It is a real pain in the a** to get them back in the box. My careful attempts left me with many bent cards.I bought these cards and the "EMT Emergency medical technician flashcards: Premium Edition" book by Jeffery Lindsey. The code which came with that book to access online quizzes didn't work. There were some repeat cards and they were nowhere even remotely close to the depth of review you'll get with McGraw-Hill's box of cards. I actually kind of regret buying Lindsey's book now, since I got it purposefully for the online quizzes, which I will never get to use now.You can't go wrong with this selection. 5 stars all the way.
This is a box of separate flashcards and not a book that follows the flashcard format, which is exactly what I wanted and I believe this is the only product out there that meets that want. The only real negative is that they can be a real pain to squeeze back into the box.
These are ok. They didn't really help to prepare me for the national test though. There is a lot of information missing. The paper is thin and it is difficult to get them all back in the box after they come out.
The cards were very paper thin unlike traditional flash cards. I also wasn't a fan of how small the box was. Once you get the cards out it was super hard to get them back in the box because of how tightly they pack them in. The thing I really didn't like about them was that they were super in depth and each card had a lot of reading on them. I was looking for more of a quick review, not a whole EMT book made into flash cards. If you want a really in depth flash card than this is for you.
Based on the reviews, i bought this for my daughter thinking it would help get her passed national registry. Wrong, they cover random areas. It does not cover scenarios, and is nothing like the actual test. I would say that the cards are actually just like a text book, just in flash cards, seriously. For example, some of the cards have crossword puzzles and things of that nature. Not helpful for my daughter.
My daughter loves them. Excellent study tool. I highly recommend getting these to help prepare for the NREMT!!! Great product.
Very helpful although some cards were too much on one card which made it slightly overwhelming! Still very helpful!
Yes, they will help in getting ready for the test.
