Its possible. Not sure if your number will get called, but i read on another forum they're calling 600#s now for drug screening. I also heard they're hiring new T/Os until April or May so its possible!!

The last verifiable list range that i know of is hi 500's very close to 600. So it seems that Ben.K's post is very positive. If anyone else has been called in for their DT please share list range and date - thx!

for those of you who are curious about school car here is a link to another forum where a couple of guys going through school car are sharing their experiences. It's very informative and gives you an idea of what to expect. Start at the beginning and read it all. It's worth it.

School car is going really well. We're doing road operations now for 2 weeks then have our final yard practical, road posting, final exam, and road practical then were done. 2½ months in, 2 months left to go!! Thank God we all passed our signal test(very stressful because 100% is needed to pass) and now we're on to the next hurdle!!! Great experience so far!

Went through the medical yesterday spent 7 hours doing it, but all went well. I'm in the 2/25 class. List number in the 470's. Pretty thorough testing but nothing out of the ordinary ekg, ears, eyes, blood pressure, urinalysis and interview. Just be truthful through the whole process because if your hiding something they will find it. one thing I will recommend is get there early. I was to report at 7:30. I got there at 715 and there was 15 people before me. If I would have got there at 7 I would have been done before 12 instead of 2:30.

Good Luck to all waiting. Oh yeah I had a good laugh, as I was waiting to be fingerprinted someone called in to find out what number they were up to. The lady told them they were up to 350. I guess they only tell you what number the last class ended with. People were there in the 550's for the drug test also.
