po ta toe - po tat oFirst of all, we don't "fail" students; we keep teaching them until they meet the standard.
or use a dive computer (as per Kingpatzer)In their OW dives, students must participate in the planning, and they must log the dives. If the dives are at altitude, they must include the altitude corrections. That means they must make that adjustment to complete the requirements of the standard.
So one instructor can fail a student for not knowing the tables or just say..."Use a computer and you will be fine" and both be within standards.
Cool how that works.
but some will say that instructor B is "bad"...(but he is within the standards)
It is the internet after all. LOLMaking those adjustments is absurdly easy, so to talk about the potential for failing a student for not being able to do it is ludicrous.
