Very useful, and more CV points. :)


I did a 10 hour First Aid course in school.

The whole class failed the practical assessment just 10 minutes in. Good laugh though.

Yeah, I suspect I may not pass the exam.

Still pretty useful, even if, since I didn't pass the exam, I can't put it on my CV. :p

I'm being murdered with homework and tests this week. Especially since tomorrow I'm out for practically the whole day, given it's Diwali. -.-

Being murdered by homework and tests. I guess those drive-by exams are pretty tough, eh? :p

Taking a break to do some introspection.

Don't worry, you don't have to tell me. I will be back.

Peace out NSG.

The teacher spent 5 minutes explaining how the practical was going to work, then about 3 minutes making the room suitable. He then put us into pairs and had one of us lie on the floor, simulating an injured person. He then described a situation. All the people on the floor either started fitting, screaming or groaning whilst every doing the actual test just did frantic CPR screaming 'Don't die on me!'.

He was not best pleased.

In all seriousness though, it's not that hard. Most of it's common sense, and then you just have to learn a few procedures about how to treat things and so on. Doesn't take much effort to pass, really.
