You dont go to "college" to be a mechanic.

There are schools for it, but I wouldnt classify them as college. Take UTI for example. I'm going there in a month (along with 3drwhore ) to get all my certification and garbage. Its a year long school and you get a lot of hands on tech training. If your serious, I'd suggest you go to UTI Corp

 

yep, get your A+ and you'll hate computers
get welding certified you'll never want to get near a torch

 

Just start at a shop and work your way up, thats how i did it. i cant learn by reading how to fix a car in a book, i learn when doing it hands on and making mistakes and learning from them......

 

woopsy, your motor blew, but hey i learned something

with proper certification though wouldn't you make more money and be more apt to get hired?

 

MTI is right up the street why go to UTI? And starting your own shop will take quite a bit of money which I cant afford.

 

HAHAHAHAHAHA, your joking right?

Its a fucking county technical institution. They dont give a shit.


UTI has schools all over the US and is affiliated with a lot of MAJOR car manufactures. Dude, do some research.



In your case, I suggest going down to jiffy lube and fill out an application and pray they hire you.

 

certifications dont mean shit they just mean you know how to study and remmber long enough to take a test. Thats why you need the 2 years exp as well.

 

I think anyone that wanted to get into doing auto tech stuff for a living would much rather earn their knowledge from uti opposed to MTI.. the intructor that teaches mechanics at MTI hasent owned a car in 10 years (true story)

 

Why do you have to be such an asshole about everything? Just curious? Maybe Bipolar? Anyways stop being such a dick head.

 

Its what I do.
