    Sit Up Position -- APFT

    Just wondering what the sit up position is for the APFT. It was arms crossed over chest for CFA but I thought I might have read somewhere that it is hands laced behind head for the APFT and I was hoping someone could confirm/deny that for me. Thanks!

    Cadet Laundry?

    How is Cadet laundry handled at West Point? Or, specifically, if you have personal items (e.g. your own boot socks), how do you get them back from the laundry? Label them? Sorry if this seems to be a silly question, I was just thinking and I got curious...

    Chapel during Beast Barracks?

    Are there any opportunities to go spend time in the chapel during Beast aside from on Sundays? I read a candidate book about USAFA awhile ago that said cadets could visit chapel every evening during BCT, so I wondered if USMA might be the same or not.

    AFROTC Physical Fitness Assessment?

    The test consists of push ups (1 min), sit ups (1 min), and a 1.5 mile run. What are the rest intervals between events? It doesn't say on the form that is on the AFROTC application website, and I can't find them anywhere else either. Does anyone here happen to know?

    I am familiar with the CFA process, but I have a question about who can administer it. I have heard/read multiple sources that said it must be a PE teacher or someone who is military affiliated. I have also heard that coaches can do it. Can a coach administer the assessment, or does it have to...

    Online Application Question

    I applied to Summer Seminar but was not accepted. Later, I received a letter saying that I was a Candidate for the Classe of 2016 and was given a website to visit. It was the application site, and my question is, should I do anything on that site, or just wait because I already have a file from SS?

    Sending transcripts?

    I have to fill out a transcript release form for my counselor and it requires the address of the Academy. Is it just the return address on my letter about being an official candidate? I am guessing that is it, but I just want to make sure.

    Physics, Spanish 4, or AP English?

    I have just been told by my HS counselor that I have a schedule conflict and will have to drop/change one of the above classes. Can anyone give me some advice as to what the Acadamies would rather see? I'm pretty sure I will not change physics. What would you do in this situation? Thanks!

    Glasses or contacts at SLS?

    I know this was posted on the USAFA thread but I was wondering about USMA SLS. Would it be better to wear glasses or contacts? I know there is a lot of dodgeball so glasses might not be good. How much time is there in the morning and are you wakened every day by pounding and yelling like at NASS...

    USMA SLS Instruction Form

    Does anyone still have the initial registration packet or a copy of it? If so, could you maybe PM me about sending it to me? I sent in the forms but realized I probably should have kept the instruction part (2nd page of packet, I think)
