    Some of our degrees unfortunately just dont have the same value as they did a few years ago. It will benefit us if they have advancement jobs which reguire degrees

    Guess it is better to get the Class B first as I learned today. I thought driving a truck would cover all the bases but it does not.

    Unless you are driving a bus...passanger endorsement needed....now I have seen
    5 or 6 people get out of a big truck, and I would think they would need the passenger endorsement..lol....class B is basically for air brakes, class A is for the combination..basically

    Its just that one needs to test out on the bus as well and at least here in Vegas I have only found one school that has both trucks and buses. Ill tackle the Class A next. I have been studying for the DMV test however, I was told by the school it wont help and I should just go take and see what kind of questions they pose.
