DS I agree with you on everything, i was just down at integrad and passed this past week. We had 23 in our class, 12 passed.
I passed out on the 5 on monday and the 10 on tuesday, this was a huge help.
Also the sunday before i left i spent a few hours driving around doing my drills and commentary, i was well ahead of the class.
During the week i focused on the diad and integration station, i practiced the steps of getting in and out the truck (brake, keys, hazards, bulk head open packae, closed, diad)
also look left right left, beeping and calling out ups.
Also on monday i figured out the diad and integration, I wrote down what steps did what and how i did it on the diad, like 75 downing was 2 for unscheduled picked and i wrote down exactly what todo on the diad such one stop was a driver release, other stops required a signature before scanning other you needed todo scan then signature, etc; i studied each stop and what was done on the diad in my hotel room
etc. etc.
i think i passed the integration station with a 95% on thursday, he said it was one of the top grades most people get.
I drove down with a buddy, he didnt do nearly as much work as I did and he failed.
