C/CMSgt. Working on my Armstrong achievement. 3+ yrs Didn't get accepted to the Academy this year. However, I'm looking forward to PJOC this summer Hbu?

I was alerted that I failed my first CFA exactly 10 hrs after I took it. That was on a Friday night which I was surprised because I thought that admissions probably went home early on a Friday. I was offered a retake for two weeks and I passed! So my guess your DS already passed it the first time!

Never give up! Keep fighting! I failed my first CFA. I was offered a retake which I am thankful for. Took advantage of the extra two weeks to prepare and I passed! My first CFA was the third time I practiced it in sequence. It was just a matter of excelling at each event and being able to do all...

First scores BB: 32 PU: 14 Shuttle: 8.20 SU: 59 PU: 62 MR: 8:59 Retake BB: 55 PU: 12 SR: 9.7 SU: 71 PU: 65 MR: 7:10 Called my counselor and she told me I passed. I was disappointed that I didn't have my first shuttle run time and pull ups for my retest. But maybe it played a role in...

Same for me! My college transcript shows up on my portal as a PDF file and it has been scanned weeks ago. But the beautiful checkmark isn't showing up yet. My counsellors are out, will call them tomorrow!

Congrats! What CAP unit are you in if you don't mind me asking?

I also received the email in class:( Did any of you guys get an interview? How about Senator Cantwell? Anyone heard from her?

Pull ups? Install a pull bar in your room. I made one with a pvc pipe, cupboard supports, and screws. Bought these items for less than $10 at Home Depot. Works great!

For the shuttle run. In CAP I always timed in 9.2-9.4 seconds and that was passing for promotions. And that was the only time I did it. For the CFA I received 8.20 on my first time which I was surprised. Second try I decided to take it slow so I can rest for my next event, got a 10.9. My tip is...

I haven't. Still waiting... for USAFA. Have you heard from the senators?

Hi Jachlee. Glad to see a fellow Washingtonian. I'm in WA-02 District, I haven't heard from my Congressman yet. Have you heard from any of the senators?

Thanks I also had the same problem. Will do!

I also enjoyed it. I'm even still in contact with my City and county mates. Try to get elected at some level. I was elected in the county level and I had a great time solving problems (i.e. budget cuts, taxes, education reform) for our county. It's a great program!

Hopeful, Glad to see a fellow college student applying. I'm pursuing a nursing degree at my college but I want to attend the USAFA and become a CRO. I'm currently taking 200 level biology classes and believe me they are tough. I hope to earn a 2.0 and above because USAFA doesn't accept...

Thank you for telling me more about the CRO career field. It is something that I've been wanting to do. I also have a passion for psychology so I might take a something related to that as well.

Hello Whiskey! Currently a nursing student pursuing an appointment to the academy. I am interested in becoming a Combat Rescue Officer or do something health related in combat. I am aware that there is no nursing curriculum at the academy. If I were to get accepted, would I be better of with...

Congrats to you Eryan456! Glad to see a fellow Washingtonian receive an appointment:) I'm WA-02 hoping for class of 2020!

At least you got some job experience that's what matters most. Grape picking sounds like fun lol

I got my first job at the mall on October of last year. It was seasonal job so starting from Black Friday till after Christmas I was working 20-25 hours a week. It was tough balancing college, gym, CAP, and work. Especially when came fall quarter finals, other workers dropped their hours but...

Thanks for the advice. I'll be submitting my PCQ tomorrow!
