I felt more than a little apprehensive. Would I even be able to test? Did I know my different disease processes and cardiac anatomy as well as I should?       Arriving at the test center nearly 45 minutes early, I was given some paperwork to fill out, confirming I was indeed the person I claimed to be. I was also asked to sign a loonnngggg paper acknowledging I that I understood my license and testing privileges would be revoked if I didn't comply with everything else listed.       I complied, acknowledging I would not cheat and hadn't smuggled any notes in under my clothes.        The test was quite hard, to say the least.

If you look closely at the bell (the part you put on your patient), you can see where I got my name engraved.
