And as far as I know the only thing complicated about alignments are the older cars. Using shims and bushings most of the newer cars don't use those any more its simple adjustments. The computer does everything.
Yeah the computer will show you the readings of "where" the manufactures specs calls for.Its not gonna show you what to turn .. where to shim..in the front or rear of the control arm cross section... is the rear for + or - caster...
Wait till you have to slot some strut towers... or align BWMs or Vetts...
Asian 4 wheel alignments are a cake walk and a good confident booster.. Wait till you get a 70s GM pickup with 300k on it,worn out non power steering box.. and got to shim the fuck out of it cause the frame is alittle out of line..
You got to walk before you crawl..
You need about 1 yr schooling or 2 yrs on the job before you can take an ASE.I also think theres a limit of how many you can do at one time..and theres I think 1-2 you cannot take until you pass the first one.
Why do you want go get ASE certified?
