I came into this school with no experience with trucks, no knowledge about trucks, no skill in driving trucks over the road. I had my CDL permit on 3^rd day, practicing backups the 4^th day, and training offsite, on city streets, 1^st day of 2^nd week; learning shifting, turning even mountain driving. The school was fast paced, instructors were demanding (but informative) the weight of failure was heavy, BUT if you pay attention & concentration you will learn a lot, and succeed. Starting at the bottom of the pole of knowledge, yet with dedication, I graduated with the Top Gun patch of my class.
