Starting CDL school on Monday

Hey all,
I was recently approved for CDL Training through the local workforce center due to being on unemployment. I'm really excited about this new adventure and have been watching trucking videos on youtube since I found out CDL Training was an option. I have always been an excellent driver, and love to drive. My family lives a few states away so I'm no stranger to long road trips.
I'm enrolled in Kansas Truck Driving School in Wichita, KS not to be confused with Wichita Truck Driving School. I'm interested if anyone here knows anything about them. I've found good reviews on line about them but most are one-liners that don't go into any detail.
I've been looking around looking for information on trucking companies in Wichita that do OTR to all 48 states. I've also been on the fence between Reefer and Flatbed. I know I have some time before I need to make that decision. After all need to get my CDL first.
I guess I'm creating this post to introduce my self and to ask for any advice you guys might have.

A little more details about me.
Location: Wichita, KS (relocation not an option)
Medical: slightly higher than normal BP: 130-145/80-95 Weight:120lbs
MVR: No tickets for 3-4 years, last one was a ticket for speeding through a speed trap camera. one accident a about 2 yrs ago, someone cut me off and slammed on the breaks, very little damage and didn't even bother with reporting it to the cops, but the insurance company knows about it so I assume it's on some sort of record some where.
Employment History: This is the one I'm most worried about, my most recent employer terminated me for a BS reason(s) and is most likely the reason I haven't be able to find another job. But they couldn't prove any of it which is why I was able to get unemployment.


As a side note, while looking at companies websites, I noticed this: http://www.keimts.com and http://paulinc.com at first glance they look totally different but if you look deeper you start to notice paul inc copied something like 80-90% of keim's site. Looks like they just copy and pasted the text and changed little details. I don't directly blame paul inc because it looks like they hired a 3rd party for the site. Just found that interesting.

 

Good idea, I'll start making a list of questions to ask once they get us in their truck.

 

120 ?!? lol, stupid typo, ment 210 lbs, and it's not letting me edit the post.
