Thanks for the CFA warning. I had no idea. Anyways, I was wondering about what gear I should bring. Obviously my essentials and I'm assuming that we'll be given unit T-shirts. But is there anything specific I should bring besides some PT gear and my every day articles?

Congratulations to everybody who was accepted to NASS! :) I hope everyone enjoys their visit & I look forward to meeting some people during the second session! I'm excited and counting down the days! I'm from Chicago and I also heard of another girl from the army high school was accepted but I'm...

lol "high school on steroids" thanks for the tip :) yeah, it is run by the usna & i figured it wouldnt be much different. i was talking to a usna representative at the recent military college fair i attended last week with my school and (i cant remember his first name) Mr. Lewis reccomended...

Okay so I went to the info forum in Chicago a few weeks ago that the USNA held at UIC and I heard there is one in Naperville this Sunday but I can't find out where or at what time? Does anybody know about this?

my high school doesnt offer any courses higher than trig in the math department or physics in the science department. i've been told that its probably best to take a calc class if it is available to me during high school so im going to be looking for another school where i can take night courses...

Just got back to Chicago from the game. We kicked their asses in the first half but in the second, the Irish definitely made a come back. Those safety points made all the difference! The team did great tonight! That was my second Navy game & they won both! I can't wait for my next one! :)

Wow! Awesome shot! Voted. :thumb:

Okay so I'm in my junior year of high school and I attend the Marine Math and Science Military Academy in Chicago. It's a public academy but selective enrollment by interview and because it is a military academy, MCJROTC is a required 4 year course for graduation. I'll be in the first graduating...
