Isn't it amazing how that works? Anyone with a few neurons firing can see within a couple hours who will make it and who won't just from their attitude.
The students who listen and are eager to learn will be the ones who get the most instructor and truck time, assuring their success.. the ones who don't pay attention... The instructors will see that and will not want to waste their valuable time.

Avoid those unmotivated people as much as possible.
