PADI - I did the 5 on the tread, however you just have to tread it doesn't say how or what position so can just float the entire 15 minutes with the last 2 minutes with hands out of water up to wrist, yes get a small person for the tow to make up time, the snorkel was my most practiced skill to get points then the swim is one point to finish no matter how you swim i.e. can just float sort of backstroke. The day I did the equipment exchange i flunked my physics but passed the exchange so was happy (did get the physics without algebra smile) The buddy breathing was the most difficult part but by the end it came natural and you got the feel for it so might help to do some buddy breathing prior to this skill requirement and get the hang of buddy breathing and the "rythym", technique. I am not in good physical shape and made it but did it for my own challenge, to go ahead and work with students yes a divemaster that is fit and has stamina would be a definate preference.
