Get hooked up with locals. do some diving, most likely you will understand that you do not need AOW yet This is the path I took so it's a bit objective. But the last few practices of basic skills like reg exchange in 38F water (when the buddy hose became hard to bend and my fingers do not really have that great feeling of things in 6 mil mitts) made me realized that I'm not fluent with the basics yet and proved that my path is right.
And the more I dive the more I question those qualification. Not even AOW after the OW class but even a master scuba diver at 50 dives. I see no way to be MSD at 50 dives. Sounds like a joke to me now.
AOW, proficiency in navigation deep and 3 more in 5 dives, this is unrealistic.
I opted one of the certs. for an unlimited season refill card. Might re- consider taking the course ofter 50 more dives.
