    I'm not sure about the private schools or even colleges for that matter. If you go to one of the megas with in house training then yes you are going to be taking the wiz quiz on day 1 or 2. What type of medications are talking about? Not asking for diagnosis, just names of meds will get you a more informed answer here.

    I remember when I was at one of the CDL mills one guy was attempting to make the argument that he had a prescription for marijuana. Funny thing is that stoner didn't even read and comprehend the state regulation saying it is a recommendation not a prescription. He was smart enough to stick around for the wiz quiz even. When he came out of the stall he dropped his bag of medicine right in front of the nurse collecting the sample. We all had a good laugh as they tossed his ### out on the street.

    the oxy is fine as long as you get a note from your doctor saying you can drive on it without being impaired. good luck with that

    Why is that?? I have a note.

    What alot of you internet doctors dont take into consideration is, over a course of time the side effects are greatly reduced as your body builds a tolerance to its potency and side effects. I know when I started taking it, I couldnt stay awake; now it has the same effects as a Tylenol....
