But that was in the days of no T.V. when looks played little role.... Think of the Nixon/Kennedy debates as an example that enforces, at least in the T.V. era, the role that good looks plays Edit: I'm not saying that you need to look good in order to be a good leader though, don't get me wrong

I watched a video by Elliot Hulse once and was very moved by his words. He argued that conviction was a very important role in great leaders. He strengthened his point, so I believe, by pointing out that Hitler and MLK Jr. both used conviction to drive their causes, granted the ideals were...

My bad, I was somehow under the impression that he meant AROTC.

1.)The last Board met last Monday, so expect a 2 week or so delay from that date. The wait is getting me anxious. 2.) To your schools of intent they are awarded to, granted I believe their are some channels to get it switched-Correct me if I am wrong.

And the wait begins....

ca2midwestmom, thanks for providing that link, its the first time I have been made aware of it.

The ARTOC portal has updated and displays the following message... "The deadline for beginning new applications for school year 2014-2015 has passed.The next application window for school year 2015-2016 begins 12 June 2014." I cannot traverse the portal to options such as "application" or...

I had very similar scores, 54 pushups, 51 sit-ups and a 5:46 mile. From what I recall when I asked the same question a while back, nothing to worry about here. You have solid scores, don't fret. Edit: the run time is for a mile, not for a 1 1/2 mile, he's hawking down on world record mile pace...

Sorry if this strays a bit off course, but if I recall, if you are given an ROTC scholarship to a school and denied to that school, assuming you have no other schools to which you are offered a scholarship and have been accepted to, then ROTC will work to give you a scholarship to a school that...

Not to ruffle your feathers, but do you realize that this is from 2011?

To add to what others have said, ponder different questions and try to figure out genuine answers to those questions. Don't say in the interview what you think they want you to say, don't beat around the bush, be yourself. Be calm, have fun, but be respectful of the situation. If you can develop...

no response for me either

Alright- I sent the command an e-mail explaining this- when I get a response I'll throw it in here. Thanks though Jcleppe

I had my physical back in September- I was disqualified for West Point, but I know that for West Point/AROTC, their doctors have the final say whether or not I can be qualified or not- West Point still hasn't made their decision on me for medical .(finished my app a month ago) The pettiness of...

So my AROTC file has been reviewed by a board and put in and order of merit list for selection of a scholarship. Since I had(technically still have) asthma (very minor, I ran last cross country season w/o my inhaler) and I had some foot issue that caused pain when my foot had no arch support and...
