    First you should learn proper grammar and sentence structure.

    You already know the answer to that.

    and 2 if i get my EPA from lincoln tech would joining a union still make sense?

    Yes. It is usually a 5 year program where you get paid as a helper in the field with night classes as well. Pay rises every year and benefits. Can tech school offer that.

    O an can someone please explain how my gages work to read how much refridgerant is in a system and if its at a safe and balance rate?

    Gauges are only one tool in your arsenal. Temperature probes, PT charts, and experience all play a part. You should have learned this by now.

    Its hard to learn when u have a class full of idiots an a instructor that only knows football and video games. For example the teach says "the green wire is always going to be your ground" student yells out "so green is the ground right?" next student says "what was the green wire again?" an this honestly repeats about 3-4 times. Then everyone finally gets that the green wire is the ground and class is over. smh.

    On a t-stat the green wire is normally connected to the fan relay.

    If this is truly how they operate you need to seek training at another facility. Are you paying to be taught in this fashion?

    You are in serious trouble when you get into the field if they don't even train you how to read gauges.

    And I also feel confident in correctly answering one of your post from June, "I plan to start classes next month at Licoln Tech in NJ for the HVAC program. I just wanna know from some ppl if this is a good school to get my certificate from? Or if anyone has been threw this school and can share some information please."

    No, don't go there.
