Mike,
It's not for every student for a few reasons:
-It requires some math. Even with a calculator some folks are math impaired.
-Some students have their hands full just diving. That of course is my call based on experience.
-Some students may not show the intellectual capacity to take the course. Again, my call.
I don't mean to suggest they are not bright enough, just not up to it. Sorry, can't put that
into words any better, I hope you grasp my meaning.
I do not have to accept anyone into a course that I think cannot perform skills
or grasp concepts adequately to be informed and safe.
I hope that answers your question
Neil
