Hi Zavier,
I can tell you first hand, its fast paced. You get about 3-4 hours tops to get used to the friction zone. It might sound impossible, instead of focusing on the negative... focus on the positive. The course is set up for YOUR SUCCESS, not to fail you. Go in with an open mind and common sense, you will come out will a cert for your endorsement and have some experience to build upon.
Its not a be all, end all course. Its a launch pad.
Good luck and for Pete sake... don't forget to have fun.
