Today, I was late for a medical school seminar and test. An SUV flipped over on the highway right in front of me. I held pressure to gushing, lacerated artery until EMS arrived. He lived, but I might have to repeat the whole year because I missed a big test. The test? Emergency response medicine. FML

I am sorry it ended up screwing you over but what you did was so cool. Think about how many lives you helped by saving that one person. Who knows how many people would have been devastated if that person died. Parents, siblings, SO, children, friends, etc... lives would have been forever changed if you hadn't been a hero today. I'm proud of you.

this is 2014 & i know this was posted in 2009 but what OP did was save a life. wow. In the Quran it's written if you save a life, it's as if you saved the whole of mankind...meaning the blessings is as you've saved the whole of mankind! OP lost 1 year, but that is nothing compared to the blessings. I wouldnt be upset, I would think I will get something better in return if God wills.

Don't worry, you did a good thing. You saved someone's life & the reward of your good deed is yet to come. Be patient.

I'm a firefighter in pa and my company has mutual aid in Maryland and I know if you take EMT in md and miss the test for something like that you should be able to retake the test.
