    Study everything. Absorb the Basic Information from the book. At school learn the basics of equipment and the varies setups of backing up and maneuvering on surface streets . Companies will give you details and policies. Go with the flow future brother. Learn the basics.

    In Ohio, since you said you don't need doubles or tank endorsement, you need to study the general knowledge, air brakes, and combination sections to get your class A. Also if you need a haz-mat endorsement you will need to study that section as well.
