I am new here to the forum and have been reading through some of the post, if this has been covered I have not found it. I am in the process of preparing for my next upgrade to Chief Limited Oceans. I have been engineering for the last 10 years, but to be honest I have been dragging my feet on this. The part that concerns me is the electronics portion. I have never used a test prep course before, only the study disc and books from various places. I am considering a test prep school for this step, just to insure I am prepared, my hope is to spend 3 intensive weeks then test and have it over and done with.
Here is my question. How good are these classes. I mean I can sit in front of a computer and take practice test at home for free? I am looking at MPT in Fort Lauderdale. I would appreciate any opinions or preferable first hand experience with their course. I would also be interested in any others you may recommend. Tuition being about $2000.00 and housing another $1500.00 this is not cheap, but if I can spend 3 weeks and get my upgrade I would be satisfied with the expense, if there is some, one on one tutoring, if you will, on the electronics or portions of the info. I feel I am week in.
Thanks in advance for your replies
