He passed all the course tests with a high B average but couldn't pass the last test. He was just pulled from the Whiskey training. He was told he may be able to be in holding for 6 months and come back to try the medic again. He wants to come home and take the emt at a local college and go back proir service but we are not sure if he can or he just has to pick another job. Any advice would be great!

No they are not going to let him leave the military, and then come back.
He will either be pushed back into another class and do it all again.
Or he will be reclassed into whatever MOS the Army needs at the moment.
Your enlistment contract can guarentee you a school slot, but they do not guarentee you will pass the school.
Thats entirely up to you, to put the effort needed to pass.
They generally don't pull people from training, for a single failure late in the class.
You are allowed to take a retest.
If you fail that test, then it's up to the Army.
And another note, any bonus he was supposed to receive for enlisting as a medic, is now gone, he will not receive it, since he didn't pass the school.
And I cannot imagine them putting someone in a holding status for 6 months, to let them go thru the class again.
Usually they just bump you back to the class behind your and let you take the last couple of weeks over again.
But chances are, if they already pulled him from school, he will be reclassed and sent to a different AIT for a different MOS.

You need to tell him to take a full stop and coming home is not an option!
91 Whiskey is not just a little deal. It is a really big deal that goes far beyond basic county EMT, state EMT or people taking classes at community college. He eventually passes and his future is assured. It combines cutting edge things with the basics.
If he leaves he may have to to start again or he might not be accepted at all. What will be the reason he gets out and what sort of discharge will he get if he does.
Bottom line. He takes a different job and applies again. He takes his last test and then it is done. He scored well before that, correct? The decision if he gets rated for it or not will depend on his "having a goal". Lower scores may be fine if he sticks to it.
And yes it is odd. If you do well they give you chance after chance. 6 months sounds like there is an issue.

I even have advised the story of abdomen wound first help coaching in elementary (the army does not have "boot camp"). This coach is showing us a thank you to apply a bandoleer to tie around a adult adult males waist and carry his intestines in place. he is going right into a narrative approximately adult adult males urinating on others guy's intestines in the sphere to bathe them as they think of urine is sterile, guess it took place in Viet Nam, he were lower back under a 300 and sixty 5 days. Any how he is going on approximately how 12 inches of gut is bumped off for each a million contaminated. He does an prolonged stare around the room at everybody and says to not do it AND if we stumble on him mendacity in the muck along with his guts putting out and we pee on him we had terrific wish he dies cuz if he lives we are ineffective MF's. There are few varieties of human carnage they could not conceal in a civilian classification! SSG US military seventy 3-eighty two

he can't leave. he will either be allowed to retake the test/pushed back in training, or he will be forced to choose another job.
