It was a complete waste of time and he just assigned us random grades. Kinda sucked but oh well, at least I ended with a B
It doesnt matter. My teacher for cad was really good. But when you take a drafting class your first semester, and you are in school for 5 years, you wont retain it by the time you start work. And you will be that far behind the new editions. Go to delta tech or sowela and just take a night time drafting course. Would do some good. (I have yet to need auto cad, I work in rotating equipment)
