Ok, i must not have done that assignment right. I finished the first assignment LAST CLASS, and there are still people working on it. Classes are almost 4 hours long...

So either I'm a very quick worker compared to my classmates or i did something totally wrong.... ****.

I did the same assignment at front range in my auto class. me and two of my friends finished in 30 minutes, everyone else took longer and got lower scores.
that pretty much sums up every assignment in auto tech except the super repetitive electrical diagnosis we raged at.
Mike, will you do hands on assignments at your school? if so take a drivetrain class, it will pay for itself when you can gear an axle or rebuild a t-case yourself rather than paying $1k to a shop for it
