    Well unfortunately the OP didnt do his research. MTC has a complaint record online a mile long.

    Now all he can do is make the best of it.

    Hopefully he passes we're all in his corner.I had to take the course twice because the first schooling I didn't get enough of anything to pass.But the second schooling was a college in Fort Dodge,Iowa called Iowa central.But before making any commitments I drove to the school 120 miles visited with some of the instructors and students.Looked over the equipment ect ect and very pleased with the visit.I was sold and it was well worth all the homework I did first.

    Sorry I had not wrote anything yesterday. The Ferguson riots had me up. I did shut my TV off at 11:30pm last night. I could not watch anymore. School is not going good. I'm a little down and disappointed. I will fill everyone in once I get home this evening.

    I did not know how the day was going to go today. Most of the class was not happy and most knew they were not ready for the CDL test. MTC knew that we did struggle. Half my classmates including me will only be taking the Pre Trip Inspection CDL test tomorrow and will continue to work on Yard and Road at MTC. That made me feel a little better. I will keep everyone updated on how I'm doing.

    I do think you should have a stern but respectful talk with the director in the morning.Tell him what kind of training you're receiving and if I don't pass before school is completed am I going to continue to receive training till I pass.Explain to him how much you paid and you feel you should get your money's worth.Tell him what you've been telling us.
     
    ryfry Thanks this.

    CDL Pre trip inspection - Score 43/45. Passed. One down and two to go! I will go back to MTC on Friday to practice more yard and Saturday probably more road driving. MTC seems they are not giving up on the students which is a good thing. On the pre trip inspection I had to do the entire engine, front overview, coupling systems and In - cab (including Air brake test) inspection. Everyone have a great thanksgiving and I will keep you updated on Friday.
     
    pattyj Thanks this.
