An 18D has skills far beyond any civilian EMT-P. Best of all, the training is free...if you pass selection.

you have to be an EMT first with 1-2k hours on the truck before doing paramed which is 2 years. get your hours in to see how you like it first. see if you can volunteer at a local hospital to get a feel for it. most people think they're cut out for something and then hate it.
most community colleges will give you financial aid. regardless, it's cheap.
i think i'm going to take the EMT while i do the whole med school application process.

Depends on where you work and if you are on the 911 system or not. Locally here in San Mateo county, usually 24 hour shifts? We have bunks at our local station for AMR units.
