What to Expect

Congratulations on completing FirstAidWeb’s ACLS Provider Certification Course! You’ve invested the time, effort, and commitment—now it’s time to secure your certification.

This exam isn’t meant to trick you. It’s designed to confirm your understanding of the material. Take a breath, get focused, and review the key details below before you begin.

Exam Overview

  • 65 questions covering all key ACLS topics, including multiple-choice and true/false. Questions are randomized for each attempt.
  • Exam must be completed within 90 minutes.
  • You must answer every question before submitting.
  • Detailed feedback is provided for every answer—correct or incorrect.
  • Passing score: 75%.
  • You have three consecutive attempts. After that, a review break will be required before trying again.

What to Keep in Mind

  • This is an individual exam—no notes, no outside help.
  • Plan for one sitting—you cannot save and return later.
  • Ensure a stable internet connection, a charged device, and a distraction-free environment.
  • You can review and change answers before submitting, but stay mindful—speed and accuracy matter in real-life situations.
  • Give your responses one final review, then submit with confidence.

What Happens Next

  • Results are displayed immediately upon submission.
  • Pass? You’ll receive your official ACLS Certification Card instantly.
  • Didn’t pass? No stress—you’ll have up to three consecutive attempts before a review break is enforced. After that, you can retake the exam.

You're ready—best of luck on your exam!

What is the maximum interval between defibrillation attempts during CPR?

What is the appropriate treatment for VF in cardiac arrest?

The recommended compression-to-ventilation ratio for adult CPR without an advanced airway is 30:2.

Adenosine is the drug of choice for pulseless electrical activity (PEA).

The recommended oxygen saturation target during post-cardiac arrest care is 92-96%.

What is the correct dose of epinephrine for pediatric cardiac arrest?

Which rhythm is not shockable?

Defibrillation should be attempted within 30 seconds for a witnessed VF arrest.

Amiodarone and lidocaine are both used for refractory VF during cardiac arrest.

What is the target PETCO2 during high-quality CPR?

Hypokalemia is included in the "H's" of reversible cardiac arrest causes.

PETCO2 levels >10 mmHg during CPR indicate high-quality chest compressions.

Chest compressions should be started immediately for a patient in asystole.

ROSC should be followed by immediate reassessment of the patient’s rhythm and ventilation.

Hypovolemia is one of the reversible causes of cardiac arrest.
