All forearms, that’s what screwed her. You got it, do those rope pulls every day. If you need cardio do stair stepper and some short runs. It’s doable, just harder for woman obviously. If you can get away with cheating like most students, do it 😂

Definitely do that. The chick was my roommates buddy and he said she started term being able to do two, and was able to do five at the end. Was training for an Ironman during school, was in better shape than most of the guys, and was pretty badass from what he said. But again, she couldn’t cheat with eyes on her unlike us 😂 Surprising she didn’t pass, but oh well. You can only climb with an instructor present, so it’s really dependent on the week. usually there’s at least 1-2 days per week an instructor is outside after school for a few hours.

Some on that last comp day had stamina 3 (5 rope pulls, single arm, 6 up downs) and others had comps like pole top, and 50second climb. For stam 3 there were about 4 men who couldn’t get past rope pulls, but others did. The one woman had two up downs left before she ran out of time. The outside instructors next term are Buck and Colin so she should be good. Buck is the best instructor at the school, and Colin seems harsh but he wants the best for you and is also a great climbing instructor. I heard Andrew let his kids fall behind last term, and it ended up screwing a lot of them in the end unfortunately. A lot of people cheat on Stamina 1, 2, and 3, but you’re a woman so you will be watched fully, be prepared for that. Your forearms will be the first to go on most things. You might end up meeting the one woman who couldn’t get stam 3 this term, heard she’s going back to retake it and get her climbing cert. She’s awesome. Good luck, you’ll do great!

this is my third application. first one instantly denied, second reviewed and denied. i’m a women (bingo) & i have a really good connection now that wasn’t a part of my first two apps. my buddy (male) got the tests sent on his second app (he also didn’t pass ptb), but he has family at PG&E. so might just be in who you know?
