    Anyone have any experience with this school?

    Do they use manual to teach? How is the CDL exam retake policy like for this school? What is the schedule like i see it says 22 days.

    @Jenn72 drives for FFE. Haven't seen her posts in a while though.
    @TravR1 might answer your questions.

    The only thing I know about them is that Dallas College sends there students there to get your CDL. I spoke with a school counselor a few months ago and the only thing he could give me was a brochure that was sent via email and he really didn't know anything, he said just call them, lol!

    I was there in 2018. It was fun.

    When I was there they taught us on manuals. Then I only used automatics until like 6 months ago. So I relearned on my own. That was... interesting. Lol

    The school is 3 weeks you are there.

    I didn't need to retake the exams. I had my learners permit already.

    I heard they are changing some of the rules on trucking schools. So retake I don't know. You have to road test at DPS now.

    Call them and ask.

    All kllm/ffe schools use automatics now. Can’t be any worse then Jackson, you get what you don’t pay for. Some of the road construction zones near Lancaster yard scare me and I try to avoid. In Jackson, the written was at least twice, but the skills was 2 chances max.

    When I went to FFE's school everyone was taught on manuals. My 1st truck with them was a manual. Now all of them are automatics.
