Ok so today I made up my mind. I am going to get my EMT cert. and then once i'm odne with that i'm going to join the army and become an army operating room tech. I would like to know what peple think I would like every ones input thank you.

sounds good !
we need people like you

I think thats great

Can't you join and have them pay for the training? Think benefits!

that's very honerable, and them boys over there can use the help

Do what you want- that is in your heart....

Being an EMT is really great thing to do- no matter where
you are...

To be 21 and to have a plan like that is AWESOME. When I was 21 I had no clue what I wanted (And I still don't have a clue). GO FOR IT

hard work ahead and EMT ain't easy good luck to you.

It's a life you have to want to live within your heart follow your dreams not what others think you should do.

Thank you it means alot i hope when i make it out i want to go to med school after

That sounds bearific bro.Go 4 it & Godspeed!Cy

Good luck, but why go for EMT cert before joining the Army? The army will teach you what you need to know about being an operating room tech. If it's for personal reasons and wanting to be the best, I understand. Why not wait til post-Army so that your EMT cert will be current and you'll be more experienced. Therefore the test won't be as hard. Unless however, you do plan on volunteering your services to the civilian world while active in the Army, which I also understand. Good Luck!

This sounds like me 20 yrs ago.
I joined Colo. Army National Guard to be Army Field Medic.91A
Then I got my EMT-Basic, then Paramedic.
Guard trained me to be Operating Room Tech. 91D
Then I got my LPN, then 8 yrs later my RN, last year Bachelors in Healthcare Management.
I sure took the long way around, but its been fun.
Good Luck

for those of you in the army would you say its wotrh it if your test scores dont let you get the job you want?

good luck to you

Wish you the best follow your dreams

Well, I wasn't in the Army.


In the Navy, I didn't exactly get the job I wanted or even close to it. But looking back I wouldn't change a thing. Not eveyone can say they worked on 75 million dollar airplane or a flightdeck.

Howevwer some poeople don't get the job they wanted and, sadly it ruins their career in the military.

thank you all for your suport and today i mad up my mind and i'm going to sign up

Best of Luck!

Remember- Always hold your head up high and be proud to wear that uniform!

cheers mate!
