Re: Going to an Automotive School

I know a guy that graduated (supposedly) in the top of his class from Nashville Auto Diesel College. He never did get a job - nobody would hire him because of the fact that he went to that school.
Im not sure what the curriculum is there but it does make me wonder about them though. This guy would do well to tie his own shoes ,i just cant see him being an automotive tech. (kind of reminds you of Beetle Bailey - goofy type) And I sure as heck wouldn't even think of letting him under the hood of my cars! But what makes me wonder about NADC is the fact he graduated in the top of his class! If "HE" is that incompetent - in the top of the class what kind of shit are they turning out on the "average" level?
I think its all about the money - if you pay the fees you will graduate regardless of what you know or are capable of doing.

Im sure there are much better schools out there than NADC,but how do you tell what you are going to get before enrolling and paying the tuition?
It might be a good idea to go by a couple of auto dealerships and just ask the question of their service manager what his opinion is of the school you are thinking about attending and get a feel of the quality of education you will receive.

I wish you luck and hope it turns out well for you!
