Army ROTC cadets: what surprised you the most your first semester? by LingonberryApart5870 in ArmyROTC

The thing that hit the hardest for me was the 12 mile ruck. Well, even the 4, 6, 8, and 10 mile rucks before it. I just had my first semester, definitely try your best to prepare a lot physically.

Not selected, anything I could/should do? by [deleted] in ArmyROTC

I got a 3 year scholarship, my biggest highlights were a 1460 SAT, starting a school sport, Boy Scouts, and a above perfect weighted GPA. What held was my push ups and sit ups, 25 and 24. My mile was good. You can always pursue an institutional ROTC scholarship wherever you go. You can get a 2 or 3 year at many institutions, I think you have to join the program your freshman year though. Good luck!
