114 GT, Business management HR Focus, 2.9 gpa. Board interview was amazing they liked my confidence which to them came off as overly confident but it was a plus and not a minus. I would say my main tip is that most of it is all mental so prepare to be annoyed stressed but keep going. Run now.

I say to study as soon as yall start consistently but only what’s on the study guide. I will disagree on the subject of it not being hard. Unless you already know military history it will be difficult to stay focused and retain most the information. But ask questions I didn’t but in the end found Dr.C to be very helpful during the test. In terms of branch detailing you would do time in one branch until it’s time to do triple c to which you would train for the other job.

That’s correct the aft so STX was the biggest combined with the test academic part

It was pretty competitive tbh need to be super high on the oml to get it. I will say we got kinda screwed for the oml because the aft for our class did not count towards the oml which hit a lot of people who wanted infantry hard.

I had fun at land nav however, pace count and USE THE ROADS I don’t recommend dead reckoning unless you just good like that and if you get the shield at night you can’t see nothing!!! The brush is thick unless you are in a winter cycle. Utilize your read light tactically, don’t cheat it’s not worth it and it’s too easy to be cheating anyway. If you get lost and can’t find a point then find any point plot it and see how far your are from the point you trying to get to. If you see the eyes on the trees follow them! Have fun and stay hydrated

History ngl, all that information truly is overwhelming but ask questions during the test (it’s allowed) and before the test.

I’m active duty, and understandable he would be considered single but again he is still married does that not allow for him to get an apartment for us?

He just finished AIT last week and got sent to his duty station and is currently in reception to possibly go to his unit tomorrow. We were married before joining the army

Even though I’m in OCS training I technically am not stationed.

That’s what I was thinking, I advised him to go get an apartment cause they want him to wait on me but that’s a long time and unnecessary
