    My CPR class is this Saturday, 8/10. It's from 8-4, and requires a textbook (which I am going to get early to review!).

    We are required to be certified in course C first responder CPR. I checked around and rechecked and had a hard time finding it offered, so my school will be offering it the first week of classes. I'm not sure of the cost, but knowing my school, it will be outrageous!! On top of tuition and books, we are being charged $200 for 2 school uniforms and a lab coat that must be purchased from them, as well as $125 per semster for lab fees..grrr.

    I took my CPR class last night. It was a 6 hour course. It was not too bad, we had a really good instructor. He gave us a 25 question test at the end and I missed only 1. Not too bad. I only hope that if someone fell down in front of me, I will remember what to do.

    I took mine in June. I was pretty nervous too, but it was pretty easy. I had learned it a few times before then, in high school and stuff, but never been certified. I also hope that I will remember what to do if I would run across an accident!!
