Failed my basic hand tools test
 

So i started taking my college autobody collision repair course and i came in with what i thought was a prdtty good understanding of most everything. Apparently i dont know ---- about screwdrivers cuz i failed that part of the test bad. I didnt know there are three different names for a phyllips screwdriver. Or how to correctly tell what size a standard screwdriver is can i borrow someones rope?

Dont feel bad. As far as i'm concerned everything is a hammer, just different shapes.

Yeah thats making me feel better already. Ive been in this class for about three months now and i still haven touched a car. Haven even gotten to use tools yet.

any college exam you take to bypass ---- is bound to have something you never knew or thought about even learning. i took one for intro to personal computers, and i was like ----, ive never even seen ---- like this before. now im stuck takin the damn class. :-X

Oh and two paint booths. Thats what i want to do is paint. I feel like i have enough of an understanding of the motor section to get by for now but body work kills me and i want to learn it so that is first. And i get to work on my own vehicle so my hatch is going to lose the z3 fenders and mach1 hood and get painted black. No more rice for me. And ill just pimp my eg fo-do tills the hatch is done

there would be no point in going to school if you already knew everything, its why you go to school.
