avengerki, Re your actual question of whether not knowing tables would affect future courses I don't know (tend to agree that it wouldn't). For confirmation just ask at your LDS and contact SSI. As far as whether tables knowledge is worthwhile: I use computer (dives below 30-40') and tables, depth gauge and watch (all dives). This may be the most often discussed topic ever on SB. Some say tables are something all should know, some totally disagree and that's not likely to change for at least a few years. Doing a SB search would probably reveal the same opinions that will come here, and MANY times over.
