Yu:

You actually attended this school?. I was thinking about the refresher in case 
something happens like I get sick and can't study or I end up failing the 
test. 

If you did attend this school, can I ask how much experience you had prior to 
attending this course?  I believe they charge $540.  Did you get a job after 
you attended this course?
