FWIW, I took the class in May. We had 9 students, 3 pods were shared and 3
pods were used by a single student. Fred Ingham was the instructor and was
excellent. He gave the unshared pods to students that had their lab tests
coming up soon, which I thought was a very fair way to handle that.
About them being in trouble, I can't understand that with as much positive
feedback I hear on this list, not to mention the success of Bruce's book and
the publicity that it brings Mentor. Also, having been to their class, the
quality was excellent. It would be surprising for a company that is doing so
many things "right" to be in trouble.
Thanks,
Bob
