[horsemen]

well class started well we did orientation

and they changed the lay out of how the class is going to go i say its back wards

first class class is sat 9am pool til noonish

1- ? do all 5 mods "book work" yes all 5 in 1 day

sun beach dive

the following sat pool 9-noonish

meet back late after noon to go to boat "sleep on boat
do boat dive sunday
done

mmm i never done the class before but i think that called rushing a class tho really doing all 5 mods in a 1/2 day ' all the book work '
make me fell a little un at ease at my first buddy dive i think but maybe being un at ease will keep me a little sharper then thinking i king and i can do this

just wondering do you think that a little fast for the book work....side note the class is just a group of 3 we have the instructor and a dm

Fast compressed and long sessions. Many will not grasp what they need to know. This sport does not come easy for everyone, what happens to the ones needing a little more time? Going to the beach with 3 hours of pool work to go is one I haven't heard off but I'm no authority. Our training has been drawn out to say the least but my wife and I have had so much time to assimilate what we've learned, caught a few more pool sessions to give her time to get really comfortable and been in some dive shop pools trying gear. Completely digested about 9 months of Dive Training Magazine and I've been a Scuba Board junkie for a year.

I'll admit that our class time was also on the slim side but with time for independent study and what was taught pool side I feel pretty good about it all. It's one thing to be taught what you need to know, it's another ting to read a feature article that covers it in depth.

Asside for a few major cautions, like don't hold your breath I guess the pool work could be done prior to the class but that's asking for gaps. After 3 hours in the pool and a lunch everyone is going to sleep through the lectures.

Just my Nebie opinion. Maybe at 48 I have more questions and need time to absorb stuff, I don't know.
