RE: Hello from NC
Welcome to the forum.
Make sure to get the most out of your professional education & training. Top-notch technicians are not easy to find.
Keep good grades, because someday it will help you when you decide to go for a higher degree, etc... This is where I failed in my first college but revenged in my 2nd college. I went back to college at the age of 29. I would definitely try to get the ASE certificate while in school, if possible. The more paperwork you have on your resume, the better!

Hi Bruce,
I myself do not have accurate info as tohow to prepare forthe ASE exam. I believe Tech & other members would be able to guide you to the right direction. I have my FAA airplane mechanic license, which was easy enough for many to pass since the questions are available in public (the college exam was actually a lot more difficult; the FAA only wants 70% in General Subject, Airframe & Powerplant while the college wanted minimum passing grades of 90% in all 3 subjects before we could take the FAA version. I confined myself in the library for several weeks trying to memorise some 3,500 questions).
I can only assume that you may want to make sure that you can answer electrical/electronic systems questions (electronic engine control/driveability, emissions control systems, ABS, etc...). I have been thinking of self-study material for ASE certificate myself and may invest in some study materials if I can find them. Automotive technology never seems to bore me!
I thought you went to the school right after finishing high-school, but if you are 32, you know what you want in your career.
