This is the problem with most MA's schools today. This is why MA's are not looked at as a professional business. I commend you on your attitude of commitment and integrity which seems to be missing in our field. Maybe that is why people are afraid to ask for that commitment, they are worried what their students will think about them! It is ashame that a few people who exercise bad business practice are being used as the examples for the professional who are making the difference in society thru MA's. BTW, our 5 schools host over 900 students, with over 75% of them "commited" to what they said they were going to do, earn their BB's. As for those who wonder about testing on a two month time schedule, if the students are not ready the instructor needs to take a good look in the mirror, and ask if he did his job. Also, would you be asking this of your childs school teacher, who BTW teaches a set material for a set time, tests them on it then moves on to the next subject?
