IDC in the Philippines

[Babydamulag]

Okay folks....we went, we did, we graduated, we have comments.
IDC was really an adventure. I opted for the PREP course before IDC, EFR, IDC and then the MSDT add-on (6 specialties). Wow, what an adventure and what a great experience. I plan to write the blog (I never had time during IDC and then the typhoon really mucked things up) about how the building of an instructor. BOTTOMLINE -- SAVE EVERYTHING YOU EVER DID IN THE DIVEMASTER COURSE AND GET THE IDC MATERIALS. READ EVERYTHING, STUDY EVERYTHING AT LEAST 10 TIMES, WATCH ALL OF THE VIDEOS (that was painful), AND DO ALL OF THIS 4 WEEKS PRIOR TO GOING TO IDC. This is the recipe for success. The confined work and open water work will be your focus when you get there. The fact is that your knowledge of "DEMONSTRATION QUALITY" is what you think it is slowed down by 5 times. The blog will be udated soon. Your comments are welcomed here and about the blog once I get it updated. The IDC was tough and it made the IE "SOOOOOO EASY". Wow, a lifelong dream is realized. Thanks to all that helped me get here!!

Thanks. The wife deserves the biggest kudos. I got sick 3 days before the IE and she made me well enough to go to the IE. My ASAWA is the greatest!!!

good job, and yes you hit the nail on the head. You will get soooo much more out of your IDC if you are confident on the physics, physiology etc sections and can then concentrate on presentations and preparation.

Congrats on passing
