In several weeks I have to take my first-aid for my job. I have taken it many times before yet every time I take I start to worry about the exam at the end of the course. I have the text book for several weeks now and I just find there is so much information I need to retain it is overwhelming. Does anyone have any suggestions as how to study for this exam and now be terrified?.

Hi Joan,
I feel your pain about taking tests. I to am dyslexic and HATE taking test. I expecally hate multipule choice test. What I do to combat the fears is start studying eairly. But if your like me you start getting overwelmed with all the information in the text book. Go through each chapter one at a time and just consentrate on the bold subject lines. For example if there is a chapter on CPR ask yourself "what do I know about CPR". Write it down and then check yourself in that chapter - skim through it. Also when your done with the test and you hand it in, find a nice spot and try to remember everything you can about the test - every question every topic and write it down. That way when you have to take the test again (or a similar one) you will already have a "sample test" or if nothing else a very good study guide. Hope this helps and good luck.)
