    Thanks for the info, Guitarmandriver. Your info on them pretty much confirms what my observations have been-that they are serious and strict. That is fine by me. I intend to take this career professionally. I'm really looking forward to the challenge.

    Hey tatt, drinking water instead of soft drinks and sugar laced coffee will help u pass a blood presure and sugar test, just have nothin with sugar or gluclose/fruclose cause they turn in2 sugar . a doc had advised this to my hubby, he dont have any major probs , but occasionally his BP is alittle high.

    careful with the caffiene too, it can elevate Bp too, avoid it the day of ur physical till after ur test.
