    I thought Swift had a school in Virgina and Tennessee---why Texas? Thanks for all your good work, appreciate the info and I'll try to do the same when I get to School.

    Hello everyone! Just to let you know, Bullhaulin08 (Jason) is on day 2 as well in Millington TN now. He got through his DOT phys. as well as the first CDL course. He's not said anything about anyone having to take the GED test (yet). So far he's a bit nervous, but is VERY excited to be there and get this done! He's a true driver at heart and has been since he was a very small boy. His older bro. is a driver and has been for a good 9 years or so now. HE LOVES IT. They come from a long line of drivers. At any rate, Jason's not going to have time to get in here I don't think, so I told him I would try and keep all of you updated. Looks like this is a GREAT spot to do that since we have one student here from San Antonio! Now, we can compare notes for sure!
    Thanks to ALL of you for your replies (now and in the past) and showing us all that you care! Your opinions and advice are well recieved on this end! Take care!! I'll try and write more tomorrow.
    Sheila Mae

    I live in Texas and that is why I am in the Texas school, Thank you JNB I will keep everyone updated as I go. Sheila the GED type test is a Texas requirement I don't know about other schools and their state requirements, Good luck to your son as long as he pays attention he will do fine.

    No GED required in Idaho. Like I said on the other Swift thread, I got accepted at Prime, Inc. Anyone know anything about them?

    The only thing I know about Prime is that they didn't call me back. :biggrin_25525:
