 | I am in the midst of trying to get an apprenticeship as an Automotive Service Technician in Alberta, Canada, and I would like to specialize in a particular brand of vehicle. So far I am considering BMW or perhaps Mercedes-Benz. However, I would be willing to apprentice with another make if it was worth it. Which company would be best to work for and provide the most opportunities? Please don't post hyper-biased opinions, but answers based on empirical evidence and experience would be best. Thank you!

 | Im so confused on which school to choose from. I've narrowed it down to Lincoln Tech and Ivy Tech. I'd like to know which school would be better choice. Maybe someone who attended either one could give me some advice. If it helps I would take just the regular automotive classes with high performance at Lincoln Tech and maybe either a Associate of Applied Science Degree for Automotive Service or a Technical Certificate for Auto Service at Ivy Tech. OPIONS "ARE" WELCOME!

 | After high school I'd like to be an automotive technician, but I'm undecided on which school I should attend when I graduate. Right now I'm thinking about UTI, the GM school in New Hampshire, and the community college here in Maine. Location doesn't matter to me, I'd like to get far away from home, if I can help it. Thank you.

| I'm a handy backyard mechanic, and I enjoy working on friend's vehicles to save them a small fortune. What if I wanted to take my little backyard hobby to the next level and perhaps get a job as a mechanic at a local garage?
Is there a test by the state (Michigan) to become licensed? Is that an easy or hard test? If I've read through an entire college textbook on car mechanics (about 1,000+ pages), I'm thinking it would be fairly easy for me to pass.

 | I've come across a couple of different job adds asking me to send a salary range along with my application. What is the proper way to go about this? Should it be in the form of a letter of interest or just a document listing the range. Also, I've always been told to avoid the question of salary range and let them put out the first number, how can I ensure I'm not low-balling myself?
Thank you
