That's understandable. I would disagree with the part about not swimming to the steps though. There are an infinite number of situations where getting the victim from the bottom to the nearest edge and out there might not be the best choice. For example, what if the victim is just too big to take out of the pool at that nearest edge spot? Maybe getting to the steps is a better idea. Regardless, I am not trying to argue with you. I hope this particular combination of factors doesn't disqualify you (assuming you're A+ lifeguard material otherwise). This exam isn't for this specific pool is it?
