Well, tried to schedule a date to do the endorsements, DMV web site wont let me since I have an appointment for my skills test. Can not have 2 appointments scheduled, even if its on different days. So, I will have to wait until I do my skills test then schedule for endorsements.

Am scheduled to take my Texas CDL skills test on Feb. 28th. Is there any certain wait period after getting my CDL, to take my endorsements? I have been studying pretty much daily for the pre trip, as well as studying for Hazmat , tanker and double/triples. Thinking about going ahead and scheduling the test date, as it took me about a month to get a date for the CLP , and that was at a neighboring town, ,my local DMV was booked out 2 1/2 months when I tried to schedule. Wondering if I could go ahead and schedule for the week after my skills test?
