finally slayed the beast!! :)

You would need to contact them through phone, email, etc. (check your congressman/woman's website) and personally request for the service academy nomination application. They will give you more information on it and send you an application packet. (I don't know if yours will be an online...

I'm from the NY district 3, Long Island. I went through and still go through the mockery and condescending remarks from people. Just ignore it because they will NEVER know the numerous opportunities you've opened for yourself. They'll NEVER know what REAL fun is. I'm a part of the Class of 2015...

Sorry, this is off the food topic, but -What are the most desired majors at USMA? -Does anyone know what they are or thinking about majoring in? -How strictly/often do cadre's test you from the cadet handbook/Bugle Notes? Thank you!

I wasn't very competitive at all when I first started my file for USMA and I definitely didn't have A's across the board. So my input is to keep pushing your academics even if it gets tough because that's one factor USMA looks into, perserverence:thumb: Your efforts are respected, but don't...

On youtube, I saw the "sock bun for military girls" video and I finally got it after countless trials. I got the hang of it in a couple of days. For anyone who is going to try the sock bun, I highly advise you to try holding down the bun with one small rubber band that will lock it in tightly...

I need help choosing one & confused with the sizing of each of them. By the way, does anyone know how the oxfords (female) sizes differ, if at all?

Thanks abeastlybeast!! :)

Accepted!! February 4th, 2011 Long Island, New York--District 3

Oh and I heard back on December 23rd through the phone.

Wow, I haven't looked at this for awhile. Sorry for such a delayed response (maybe you've already heard from them) I heard from Gillibrand's office a week before Christmas break. Something came in the mail with a specific date and time for an interview in NYC.

I received a congressional & senatorial noms from Peter King and Gillibrand! Best of luck to all :)

For pull ups, I do as many as I can and I do something called "negatives." You can use a chair to pull your chin over the bar then slowly bring yourself down doing a couple of regulars, wide grip, narrow grip, and chin ups. For sit ups, like everyone else said, you just have to do them. Just...
