Hey guys, this is my first post. After learning today that I failed I thought I better join this community for some help. I'm pretty bummed out becuase I smoked the practicals. However, I took almost 5 months off of studying before I took this test...I'm sure that did not help. Grrr...there goes another $70 bucks.
I underestimated this test, and here's why...
1) I practiced almost all of the Brady, pren hall online sample tests, and finished 75% or over every time.
2) My teacher said if I pass these brady samples I would easily pass the actual exam. Humm...not true at all.
3) Thinking I was going to pass I didn't pay that much attention to the questions (for my study now...whoops)
However, here are two questions that come to mind. One was about a breech birth...answers were somthing like "hold the baby in and transport asap", and "tell the mother to push". Another was about an infant with an airway obstruction. It asks "what would you do after 5 backblows and 5 chest thrusts. First off it calls it "chops" I was trained "backblows". Anyhow I answered "do another 5 and 5".
Finally the last question I thought I got right?? It asked about 2-person infant CPR. Options were "two fingers", or wrapping two hands and using two thumbs". I answered the "two thumbs" with a 2-person rescue. Why would it end me on a question I got right?? (or so I thought)
Edit- I'm not listing the actual questions above, but someone let me know if I need to edit. If we can't discuss questions here, looks like I might have to search elsewhere?
