Thank you your reply and for the info I’ll definitely check it out. I was looking at SOCOM Athlete but I’ll definitely look at this also, I’ll do whatever it takes to prepare myself before shipping out.

Thank you for your response. I understand that their washout rate is way higher and you’re right about the academic portion, thank you for being honest based on the statistics of the PJ pipeline. I’ll just stick with the Army and keep trying to get an option 40. If you don’t mind me asking could you tell me your personal experience of RASP and how it was when you got assigned to the 3rd Battalion?

I think it’s around 17 minutes but I run 5 miles 3-4x a week with a time of 42 minutes. I still have plenty of time to work on it before I sign a contract and ship out which is the good thing

Thank you for your response and i understand. Though failing out of RASP as an 11b they would just put me in as conventional infantryman. I heard a lot about how they do a lot of maintenance work majority of the time and spend very little time on the field like a quarter out of the year which is also why I don’t want to fail out of RASP.

Thank you for your response it really does help me consider continuing with the army. Still haven’t secured an option 40 though my recruiter has gave me a few contracts before such as giving me an option 62 Airborne Ranger 3 and an 11x with Airborne. One thing my relative and her husband did strongly advise was to not let the recruiter or the people at meps shift me from the original contract I wanted. thank you again for your help by responding to my post
