Dangerous claim. I am doing my CMAS* at the moment, and we have someone in the group who has once tried PADI. It ended in damaging her eardrum because of the dive instructor urging her downward despite her beeing not able to equalize. Now, 2 or 3 years later she does her CMAS* with the German Recreational Diving Association (VDST).

I start to think, if someone brags about "I've not have anyone flunk..."

Just my 0.02$
