What is MARSOT? When can you take it? I know it's some kind of screener but can someone elaborate the elements of the screener? Also, what kind of opportunities does passing the screener open up?

I tried to look on the USNA website but couldn't find anything but I remember while at a CVW my plebe telling me about a guy in his company who would ruck. Is there a club or unofficial group at USNA that rucks or are you allowed to bring your own ruck?
