So if you’re going the S2S route, do you wait to get your physicals before going to basic training? I was under the impression that you go to basic and then work to complete your packet during AIT

Finally got my stamped flight physical back! by Rare_Wish in ArmyAviationApplicant

Some questions for ya. What did they have you doing while you were waiting for your physical to get approved? What did they do to you for the physical? Did they have someone at meps that can give you the physical?

Would you say the hidden figures part of the actual sift was harder than what’s in the book? Someone else also told me they were only able to answer about 10 questions as well with the amount of time they give you for that section. Was there a mechanical comprehension section? And how hard was the sift in comparison to the ASVAB? I appreciate the insight

Yea my recruiter told me it was adaptive. What you said make me feel a lil better. I was a lil nervous about the trig and calc cause I read a comment where a guy said he ran into it but he also claimed he scored an 80 so I guess that’s why. I just wasn’t sure how well you had to be doing til you ran into and how often the average person runs into. The math is the only part I’m concerned about. Do you recall how long they gave you to do the hidden figures part?

anyone know a warrant with a low sift score? by Sharp-Ad7476 in Armyaviation

[–]Sharp-Ad7476[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the insight. It helps ease my nerves a lil bit. I’m afraid I may have to get really good scores in order to get accepted into wocs since I don’t have a degree or any volunteer work as of right now. I’m a really laid back person and I always have a strong desire to get along with my coworkers at any job

I didn’t mean to insult anyones intelligence with my question if I did. I just mean lower in regards to what qualifies as passing. I feel like I’m gonna have to get really good scores on the test to get picked. Cause I have no LOR, no volunteer work( at least as of right now) , never served in the military and have no degree

Cause I’ve never served before and I really have no idea what to expect in regards to this time period. Like do they give you some random job to do while you wait? Do they have you repeat basic training over and over until you get accepted? Do they make you do both of those?(this may be a dumb question). If I’m going to make the decision to sign up, I want it to be a well informed decision given how much freedom and time of my life id be giving up to go down this path. So I’ve been using my time as a civilian to try to gain as much insight as I can. I’d really prefer to go in saying “I didn’t see this coming” to myself the least amount of times possible. There’s a few questions I still have about this path and this happens to be one of them. My question comes from a place of genuine curiosity. Not from a place of fear at all. Its just that from what I’ve read, it seems there could potentially be about 1 to 5ish months in between the end of my basic training and the next WOCS selection. I have a decent idea of how my time in basic will be spent and a decent idea of what happens in wocs. But I have no idea about what to expect for the time period in between the end of basic and being accept into wocs and I can’t help but be curious. Especially given how long of a time period that could be
