You could take a few days and go visit member toolboxdiver.

What class of license is the instruction for.
Does the fee cover all materials and equipment.
Are there any hidden fees or costs.
If I fail the test do you help me and retest at no extra charge.

If you go in the water knowing how swim and how to survive, float, is a good idea.

The prices you gave sound reasonable. When you are doing your final dive the money will have almost no meaning. Some compare it to a religious experience.

I am an old retired PADI certified instructor, but there is plenty of information on the internet you can access just by typing SCUBA in your search engine.

you can check out the FAQ's at this and other sites.
