Swim test

[coptobe2014]

I don't know if anyone of you guys know about the swim test at town of palm beach ( palm beach county , fl )
I have to perform the swim/pat test there and I only have about 7 days before the test. I am not really worried about the pat test because I very confident I can pass it easily but the problem is right after that I have to take the swim test ( 100 yards, hold breathe underwater for 30',swim underwater for 45' dive to recover an object )
I am not too good at swimming.
I need your tips guys on how to hold breathe underwater for 45'

Not to be a dick, I probably would have started preparing more than 7 days out if I knew I wasn't a strong swimmer.

Yeah... Maybe you can wear floaties...

Practice for more than 7 days beforehand.

My oldest daughter thought she was a "good" swimmer being a surfer. She failed and then asked. Start lap swimming about 5 weeks before the test. Most people have never swimmed 100 yards so I could tell the OP did not pass. My daughter passed the second time.
