Of course i could, i guess i was being a little to sarcastic for some people..
-
who are you directing this to........me......??
no, i did not get fired from them or something. i as i said, AM VERY FAMILIAR with that company (school) and how they operate. just wait, for instance, when you graduate. you can only go to the school 2 days before your road test to practice. what will you do if your DMV appointment is 2 weeks away, and for 2 weeks, you are at home, not practicing.......??
try and get some practice time BEFORE your required time.
and of course the instructors are "polite" to you, if they aren't you would complain and he will be suspended.......... they are AFRAID to tell you like it is.........they keep things from you......go ahead and PUSH for some serious questions like, "will i really get hired right away"? "is the placement assistance good for only so long"......??
go ahead, ask them........ -
I will anything else i can ask them will help id love to try and screw with them and see what there really about.. I was just wondering about how your so familiar with them.. Didnt mean anything by it..
But ya i have complained about that one retarted ### insturctor and his ####### is still here... why its beond me.. And as far as they told me, Dont hold me to it.. I can ask for placement assiatance at any time when ever i need it.. You have heard or expereanced diffrent?

I looked into NETTS......Talk about them trying to make a sale....and trying to get money out of me right then and there when I asked for a brochure!! Then the salesman/recruiter said....well, we normally don't do this on-site, we usually send a rep to your house to get the info...I joked with him that if somebody could not find the time to get to the school to check it out in person they should not be spending the $$ cause they don't sound too committed....he then then something about alot of them don't drive or have cars...and I was like OK....
Kinda explains the Failure rate, the lawsuits they have lost for big $$. I think it seemed like a diploma mill...heck, walked out to the practice yard...half the class was standing around waiting for their turns...and they do the tests onsite in MA, with a trooper that comes to give the test in their own practice yard....so failing on a course you have practicing on many times....makes me laugh!!
But on a good note, they did make me explore other schools...Found one in Maine, that will take me to NH to do the test, and it is cheaper, has better equipment, and overall a better reputation...PRO-DRIVE. (A NETTS student I bumped into from NH warned me they had problems finding a roadworthy truck that would pass the NH pretripwhen he did his first try!). A good friend told me If I lived in MA, to go to Parker.....but they are south of Boston, and don't do NH tests.

Hmm and also to the practice time befor my test i will be sure to ask for extra time because 2 weeks w/o touching a truck and expected to be able to go and do it out of the blue i know ill forget a micro step some where

Befor i even finnish reading this... THats a load of BS they send a rep out to any one and every one who shows any interest... Not to bash any one or anything... As far as ive been told the owner is jewish and all he wants is money so for him to send a rep out is always potional money , ill

For MA they do not do testing # the connecitut school they have to drive a truck into mass and at a random location thats picked on the day of the test the trooper shows up to that location and judges your test... For Ct we stay at the school and the DMV inspector comes to us and we do it right out on the fieldin sommers -
