Hey all! Just wanted to let ya'll know that I've started a Facebook group called "USMA Prospective Class of 2012" for those of ya'll who are applying to USMA this year. Come on over and join!

The food is great (at least in the mess hall; hospital food is okay but I'm very tired of it!) My foot (not ankle) is doing better; the pain fluctuates from day to day, but it's getting better slowly. No therapy for three months, when the screws come out. I'll be in here another week and a...

No, I'm not going to school this year; instead I'm looking into volunteering at my high school as a substitute teacher or a tutor to keep my math skills honed. I'm in Keller Army Community Hospital on post at West Point. And no, I doubt my parents are coming up here. They can't really...

SAMI, no. We asked each Saturday if there would be SAMI, and each time we were told no. Just regular AMI, and some days the cadre were too busy to do more than just peek into the rooms (at least in my platoon) to see how they looked. My roommates and I did overhear our Platoon Leader say that...

Thanks. I probably won't get back here tomorrow; I'll probably be too out of it from the anesthesia to have any coherence or clear presence of mind, so ya'll just post questions and I'll have something to do while I recover from surgery!

Okay, so this is really weird for me, but hey to all from USMA CBT 2007! Probably (at least it should be) the first and only electronic contact any New Cadet will make with the outside world! Basically, I'm laid up here in the hospital (KACH) with a screwed-up foot; separated two joints and...

Hey all! For anyone who hasn't seen yet, the USMA home page has a link that will be streaming the commencement ceremonies live tomorrow starting @ 9 am, with some sort of informational video showing shortly before that. Check it out! www.usma.army.mil/stream.asp Note - you need Windows...

I'm not an alumni, and I don't really know how much time for reading letters I'll have during Beast, but I know that I'm gonna want several letters a week! Might not have time to read them much, but I'll still want them!

Hey, ScreamingEagle! Good to see you over here! Good luck w/ Airborne!

Does anyone know if an AP exam can be taken for credit, w/o taking the class? I heard a rumor that it is possible, and if it is, I might take the AP English exam offered at my school, since I am exempting all other exams and don't have anything to study for.

There is a GREAT documentary on West Point by National Geographic called "Surviving West Point." It's a two-disc set, over six hours long, and if you're wanting an in-depth view on R-Day, Beast, etc., this is a must-have! It follows four new cadets from R-Day all the way through Beast into...

I tried calling admissions and unfortunately their 'speed of light' was down at the time and the mailman happened to be faster..... I'M IN!!!!!!! :jump1: :groupwave: :bounce1: :usa:

Same thing happened here yesterday on my candidate login, but no news yet of appointment. Waiting to call and find out something positive! :D BTW this was after I was told last week by WP that they believed they would be able to offer me an appointment within the next two weeks.

Hey all! Just joined the forums 19 minutes ago; some of ya'll may know me from the other forum site. :wink: Just wondering, who here has been accepted to military schools other than the service academies? I was accepted to the Citadel this week; still awaiting word from USMA and USNA.
