NREMT AEMT exam requirements & cost
Straight from the certifying body — separate from what we charge for the study portal.
The NREMT AEMT examination has 135 items, of which 100 are scored and 35 are unscored pilot items, delivered as a fixed-length linear computer-based test (NREMT AEMT test plan, exam administered from July 1, 2024). Items are scored right or wrong with no partial credit, and the item types include multiple choice, multiple response, build list, drag-and-drop, options box, graphical items and scenario-based sets. The test plan has six areas: airway, respiration and ventilation (11%), cardiology and resuscitation (13%), trauma (9%), medical, obstetrics and gynecology (27%), EMS operations (8%) and clinical judgment (32%). NREMT sets the passing standard through a standard-setting study approved by its Board and does not publish the cut score in the test plan. The portal shows percentages only as a self-check. NREMT sets the exam fee and charges it per attempt; the current amount is shown in your NREMT account when you apply. The content outline spreads questions across 6 areas; the largest are Clinical Judgment (32.0%); Medical/Obstetrics/Gynecology (27.0%); Cardiology & Resuscitation (13.0%). The full list of areas and weights is on the portal exam page. Completion of a state-approved AEMT program is required before you apply; state EMS offices set licensure rules.
