    Like I said in an earlier post, it's rare they fail anyone. The vast majority of people going home quit. Pretty much everyone, in fact. The dude who couldn't lift the tarp was one that they sent home, a guy who went over a set of RR tracks at 40mph was another, and one other guy couldn't pass the backing test. You'll be fine. Don't overthink it

    Just saw your posts cody.you will do fine.i think we only had one dude fail out.i am guessing his school had pup trailers and day cabs.i said it earlier ,but I think they just want to make sure you are teachable.they don't expect perfection.when you do balance test try to stand by healthy looking people.i was by a big boy and I saw him out of the corner of my eye flailing around and it threw me off.(He passed)I think it was ilovecats said to treat it as a interview the whole time.i went in with the mindset of being there to work not socialize.if you have a know it all in your group just bite your tongue and roll with it,it's only 8 days.i think most of our guys who got kicked out,lied on application about things .they will work with you but not if you lie .please keep us abreast of your progress.i think there's a few of us that read this.make sure to get baggage receipt they will reimburse you.by the time I got my own truck I had 4 plane trips.160.? bucks in checked fees
