[QUOTE="gixer, post: 613868, member: 24481"] I went to MMI. It’s a good school. I actually helped set up the Suzuki program there. I had some good teachers there as was able to learn allot. You are not going to get rich being a mechanic and if its any thing by you like it is here there are not may openings around. Well I also have not looked in a long time. You will start off as an entry-level mechanic but you will be better off than some one who starts off sweeping the floors. There are short cuts ( and I don’t mean in cutting quality of workman ship ) that you don’t learn in the school that are model specific so you have to learn that on the job. For example to change the stator in a gold wing if you follow the book it will take you a while unless you know the shorter way to do it. Any way like I mentioned in another thread on this subject just because you pass does not mean you will be good. I interviewed at a dealer and they manager told me he had another MMI graduate the day before and that guy did not know any thing. I on the other hand blew the guy away with what I knew. I studied and ended up on the deans list while being the youngest at the time to go threw their program. So it really depends on you what becomes of it. People have graduated from there to land very nice and well paying jobs and others have left and still could barley change a tire on a scooter. I had seen it in my own class. But all in all I thought it was a very good school and will help you learn the basics. I have seen people get jobs right out of school also. [/QUOTE]
