Yesterday was the meeting at the Exton,PA UTI campus for me to get to know more about the school, get hooked up with 2 room mates and listen to several guys speak about the school. I had to take a 150 question test to get a scholarship at the meeting, the test had questions on Auto,English,History,Science,Math and then they threw in some random trivia questions that made you think wtf does this have to do with school. As i looked around the room full of about 300 people I saw roughly 15-20 girls that had a name tag that will be students at the school. I was expecting 2 girls at most. Shows a change that more and more girls are getting interested in cars and working on them. What I got out of the meeting is that as long as you have nearly perfect attendence, read your notes, dont be a fool, and make the best out of yourself. The school will be fun and rewarding. The school buys cars to work on and learn how to install performance parts on the car. In one of the shops they had a yellow 04 GTO, a 98-02 LS1 camaro that was stripped on the inside with a bottle os NOS in the hatch. an LT1 camaro, Late 90's toyota supra, a few hot rods and just a bunch of regular cars to work on like ford taurus. School is set up just like a high school with classroom after classroom, besides the garages. Each classroom is a different class. On average you are in each class for 3 weeks. one class is brakes, trans, rears, wiring, electroics, motor machining, and etc. My two room mates seem to be good, one is extremly quite and the other one is basically like me. So that means i dont have to worry about someone smoking every 20 mins or just being a waste of space. 3 people in one appartment means about $250 per person a month for rent. Some people may ask me why did I choose to go to NTI and not just UTI or any other community college and take auto classes. My answer I want to have nascar as a background for me so i understand the basics of working and fabricating the car. Going to NTI does not mean you get onto a team. You have to know someone to get onto a team. Good thing for me I know an Ex crew chief. Only 4% of graduates of NTI make it onto a nascar team. The others go into a dealership which is a wonderful job as long as you take the MSAT program ( Manufactuer Specific Advanced Training ) I want to leave my self with every option open thats why i have to have a 99-100% attendence for the 15 month program. This will allow me to be able to get accpeted into any of the MSAT programs such as BMW, Mercedes-benz,Porsche, Audi.

If there is anything else you want to ask about my experience so far feel free to ask.
