    FWIW, I went to TDDS (Lake Diamond OH, right?) over 15 years ago. I passed all my written tests for all the endorsements (including HAZ MAT) with a 100%, THE FIRST TIME I TOOK THE TEST!
    I scored the highest on the pre-trip inspection they had ever seen (only missed 6 items).
    I passed the DMV road test the very 1 st time!
    I am not the best learner, so I would have to conclude they were a VERY GOOD school.
    (However, they did not prepare me for a carreer in trucking! they only made it possible for me to pass the CDL test!)
    Do you know, are they still giving job placement assistance "for life" for all graduates, like they used to?
