    The sleep apnea part my uncle told me his physical they measured the neck, weight, height and if over a certain point you were required to do a sleep test. How is that 500 given, check or card. I don't mean to make it about money but im trying to figure out how much to save. My bills are 230 a month and you aren't paid for the first month correct?

    From my personal experience they didn't test for sleep apnea; they didn't put anything to my neck.they did measure weight but that's to be expected. The 500 is on a kllm card they issue you.

    I understand so at least in your experience you weren't required to test for it. Would you suggest saving up two months worth just in case and i am studying for the cdl permit daily

    I do suggest saving your money because you will need it. Only because you have test fees that are 100 total. If you get hungry after dinner you'll need some food money maybe about 50-60. Then you have everything going on outside of school like your own life(bills). There are many people who quit because they didn't have the money. So yes save have enough to last you a month and you'll be fine.

    Ok so 100 for test fees plus my 230 a month for bills. So I need a minimum of 330 saved but preferably more

    Might want to have extra saved. The only thing the company pay towards your cdl is the tanker and hazmat. I think you have to pay at the office they take you to register for hazmat. Can't remember if they paid it or if I did.

    Ok im thinking 230 for bills, 100 for testing fees so I will probably try to have about 500 or 600 saved up. That will take me at least another month and a half maybe two
