Does that mean the company is going to give you a letter saying you have the firing time to write the absa exams. It's been quite a few years
, since I wrote my Fourth, if you have grade 10 math and physics, and didn't have any big problems with them, have a good mechanical apptitude then I'm sure you will have no big problems with the exam. If you ever want to switch careers it gives you more options for sure, and if they are paying the bills then I'd go for it. You can pm me if you want, I've been at the operator game for awhile now.
Good luck
