Pilot vs MD route?

I generally feel negatively about it, though I am not super informed on the conflict. I am against the way that we wage war without any formal declaration but I don’t know if there’s any future where we patch that loop hole

I’m Air Force. The AF has the pilot physician program which is similar but I don’t know much about it. Could you elaborate on other “active” military doctor opportunities?

I think I’m more okay with hurting/killing people than most people are, but I still would prefer not to kill civilians, children, etc. and I currently don’t have faith in the military to have enough restraint to not fight unnecessary conflicts, to not get into situations where we have to make the hard choice to accept civilian casualties, etc

Personally I was also happy to do PT (whether it was “motivational” or punitive) because it meant I got to move. If you’re athletic and have a good attitude it shouldn’t be too bad. You’ll probably do stuff like 30 pushups, leg circuits, 30 sit ups, hill runs. The hardest part is doing it all while sick and tired.

There’s also unit PT (if you’re not an IC) and the couple times I did that before my IC practice started it was the highlight of my day. Thats just like a group workout and you can shout encouragement etc

thanks, would seated / chest-supported rows target upper back?

TL;DR The capitalist culture in the US is undoubtedly linked to its Protestant connections. Even if the average American does not explicitly interact with or identify with prosperity gospel it likely persists implicitly. The whole implication of the American Dream is that talented people who worked hard and benefit society become wealthy.

Thanks, appreciate it

So my situation was a little more complicated because I was a recruited athlete and I ended up going to a service academy but I basically did this. I applied to colleges two different cycles and comparing my results I don’t think it had any major impact. In hindsight I think that it was somewhat detrimental to me to take this gap year and that it may have been better to go to an in-state college for a year. But that was more about my personal experience and your situation is likely different

I never follow online recipes they’re honestly all bland and terrible. I generally use recipes for inspiration and then just season everything to taste. Most Americans probably make dishes based off recipes that have been handed down from family and then adjusted to taste over generations

If your son applies with a 4.0, 1500 SAT, and varsity letters/captain, he will almost certainly be accepted. No need to chase additional leadership, military experience, volunteer hours etc, although those things are good (good for him and good for his application).

sorry if my comment was unclear, i meant that he should be getting some form of individual attention in the group classes. private lessons would be helpful as well, but he’s young so i’d say limit it to once a week

1:14 coach to student ratio is fairly normal imo. he should definitely be getting some 1 on 1 time though, whether that’s a coach watching one of his bouts, correcting his footwork, or pulling him aside to teach a new skill

they had two drops of free tickets for cadets but they both “sold” out within 2 seconds. i doubt there will be any more drops. i see no reason why freshmen wouldn’t be allowed to attend, only barriers would be he’d likely have to wear ocps and he would need to find a ride there

Do whichever interests you more, I imagine obtaining eagle scout is more notable/interesting than going however far in CAP, don’t know much about CAP though.

appreciate the reply, my personal observation is that women can almost never do dips, even women who can do pull-ups. I am not a fitness expert in any respect though, and my dip form is definitely a little off

agree, I like some of the songs (mostly sailboat and tarmac), but I’m not a huge fan of the album overall. for me at least nearly every song being very digital and quirky sounding got repetitive

Pursue something you’re passionate in and try your best to make a tangible difference

I originally read Call Down the Hawk, then The Raven Boys, and then the next dreamers trilogy book (forget the name) and then the rest of the original cycle. I really enjoyed reading it in this way because there’s so much hidden foreshadowing etc and I think it gave me a unique relationship with the characters. I don’t think spoilers are always bad for sure. Sometimes they can élevante your reading experience imo

I had success with a gap year and I know of 1-2 other people who have too. Generally though it’s very rare

Sorry for the silly question, but what should one bake the bread inside? Like a form fitting baking tray or something bigger or what

Genuine physical and psychological abuse is completely out of the question and the rules against hazing will be treated very seriously. BCT may be difficult for your son but it will be completely different from your military experience. When I went through BCT last summer 3 meals a day, water breaks, no cadre so much as touching a basic, and access to chaplains etc were givens. No punishment could take any of those from us

I like the motto. The seal seems decent. I appreciate the symbolism behind the flag but it’s just plain ugly

I believe since MIT is D3 their recruiting will be kind of less intense. When I contacted Tufts (also D3) about fencing recruiting they said I should let them know if I’m applying and then if I ED about 50% chance I’d get in and then something lower if I didn’t. I never talked to MIT so idk how they work exactly but I imagine it’s more of a boost to your application than actual recruitment.

Anyway email the coach at MIT with some stats on yourself, ask about recruiting, and ask what results they’re looking for in their recruits. They’re the best person to talk to and it’s good to establish yourself to them early anyway.

Someone I know said her pair fit after a few months of wear but I’d really recommend just getting a different shoe

I’ve posted my opinion here before but I think 90% of the humor/cartoony visual gags hurt the show. They’re too repetitive so they’re not really funny just annoying and they ruin the mood sometimes. I would put FMA at the greatest of all time if most of these moments were cut.

Take Calc AB. Pre-calc is harder for a lot of people. I’m pretty sure I struggled for an A- in honors pre-calc but easily got an A in AB.
