need imput to see if my negative attitude is justified or not
thanks
My sig line at the bottom of my posts read: "Attitude Determines Altitude".
It's true. And trust me, I don't say that from an ivory tower. I say it from first hand experience.
When my attitude was "Aw what the *&%# do I need to do all that for? I'm doing all right", I was blinding myself to all that I really needed to know.
If you set it in your mind to study hard so you can do well on the NATE or any other exam you might take, how will that play out to be a bad outcome? You'll gain knowledge, you'll be certified (which you can put on your resume), and you'll have expanded your envelope of experience in the HVAC world.
I've read and heard all the naysaying against NATE and other tests like it, but my personal experience is that I benefitted far more from preparing and taking such a test than I did by just blowing it off as as waste of cash and time.
It's all about attitude...
