I learned more in tearing the crx apart 3 times than I learned in 3 months at UTI. Only thing you get when you're done is a certificate, and supposadly the knowledge of getting ASE certified, so you can work at a dealership.. they lure dumbass kids into convincing their parents they want to work for porsche, bmw, vw, etc.. and it's not like that at all..
Every person I have seen who has gone to these schools basically is what crxmatt just said. Start building a hybrid old honda. Build/rip apart the whole thing. rip apart build motors.
Get the car to run. Buy diy books. read HMT. Meet cool old guys. Build stuffjust to do it not tobe the cool kid on the block.
=your better off
walk into dealer and be done with it.
The omg you went to some chesse ball school now you work for some **** company isnt the world dude. Its who you know and what you know
NOt what some redneck trade school piece of paper says you can do.

so your taking out 20k loan to get away? Spend 5k on building a turbo car. Then spend cash at a local community college
The classes there are better small classes actually get you to work on cars not sit in groups of 15 and watch each other play pocket pool
