My instructor took a cursory look at my logbook. Like others, I had take classes from this shop before DM. I think they felt that I had sufficient diving experience. While I hadn't been around the world like many of my instructors, I had experience in dark, dreary quarries, Florida springs, and the Atlantic Ocean, wet and dry, day, night, and limited vis. I demonstrated leadership and skills during the course that made her comfortable enough that checking my logbook was a formality. YMMV.
