    I am about to take the auto evaluation course in dallas . Can anyone tell me what to expect ?

    I have about  twenty years body shop and estimating experience...

    I have been writing computer est. and doing direct repairs for State Farm etc.. for years.

    Hand write an estimate, Know your p pages, know how to use a crash book.

    Well don't say that out loud at the eval or they will question the 20 year thing. P Pages = procedure pages,

    You may be lucky, it was two days when I took it also. Maybe this is more of a class than just an eval.

    The P Pages are located in the back of the Mitchell crash books used when you used to hand write estimates. They deal with overlap, included ops and such.

    Well that explains alot i got out of the shop and picked up a clip board around the time 96-97
    we started writing estimates with ADP DOS software ... I have hand written quite a few estimates
    but we stopped buying crash books a long time ago.. i better go find some of my our old books and get as familiar
    as i can .

    Thanx Jim
