Is this enough?

[kwantz]

The school I want to goto has
110 hours of in class theory.
and 90 hours on the road. Total of 40 hours a week for 5 weeks.
will this gain me enough experience to possibly start with a company as a entry driver?

That's more than a lot of these company hosted schools. It's plenty. However, no matter what, as an entry level driver, they're still going to put you with a trainer, no matter how much time you spend on the road in school.

Unless the school has a very bad rep among training companies there is more than enough class hours that the vast majority of training companies are not going to have an issue. Many training companies like to see at least 160 hours at a min from outside schools

yeah i think im going to pick this school,, its PTDI , and its alot of hours for a 5 week course, 8-4 mon-fri for 5 weeks. Get your CDL, Hazmat and a bunch of other stuff too.. 110 in class theory 90 on the road. Gunna check out a few more schools first just to make sure. But so far nothing has even come close to this school yet in my area that I have checked out.

IMHO you should just stop looking. The number of hours as well as being PTDI certified will more than satisfy 99% of the training companies out there. In fact I actually only know of 1 that would turn you down based on your school choice and that is because they require students go to their company school.

How many in the truck at one time?
200 hours in a school should be plenty.
As said, the company you go with will or should give you your real training.
