Hey y'all, this is my first post. Probably gonna get some laughs and some hate, but no worries
I'm not sure how I stumbled onto this gem, but I'm glad I did.
I'm decently smart and reasonably athletic. I've been training Brazilian jiu-jitsu for 2 years and have been hunting for my entire life, just about.
I have my CFA scheduled for Thursday. I've been training for it on the pull-ups, push-ups, and sit-ups, and running up until I hurt my foot 3 weeks ago. My last timed run was in the 8 minute range (7'50" was the last full mile I ran), but I'm sure I can do better; I often let laziness hinder my full ability in workouts and I ran slower than I can. I'm not worried about anything other than the run time, but I did not practice for the basketball throw or the shuttle run. However, I've run a bunch of suicides in at good time and a previous applicant told me not to worry about the throw.
So it was of great surprise to me when I read "Oh No, Basketball Throw" on this forum. Would I be able to re-test if I fail or would like to do better? Does my run make the cut? My Field Force rep told me not to think about minimums, and I don't plan on just barely making it, but is there a sheet of minimums that one of y'all can post up?
Thanks for looking and answering my questions.
West Point is literally my dreams come true, I just hope I can make it happen.
