    Are they really going to check what underwear we are wearing?

    R-day Necessities

    I was reviewing that pdf and it says to bring X-rays and such if DoDMERB wants them. I was medically qualified way back probably around November/October and haven't looked at anything DoDMERB related since. Would I have received a letter if they had wanted to see something?

    New York/Northeast Region

    I'm pretty sure the 11th/10th district in VA might be two of the most competitive in the country. You don't want to move down here.

    Biggest worries about Beast?

    Don't eat stupidly before a run either. You don't wanna have to stick your finger down your throat to make yourself feel better half way through.

    o.O Halp?

    You should contact admissions before thinking that. It is possible there was an error.

    Clarification on cell phones

    Thank you. That answers my question. I suppose I will just leave my phone at home then instead of letting it sit in some room all summer.

    Clarification on cell phones

    I meant during beast. By issued I meant given one to call home with at appointed times. I'm aware we won't be able to use the phones whenever we want during beast but my question is when we are allowed to use them will they be ours or our squad leaders (or whoever).

    Clarification on cell phones

    I have heard conflicting things. One is that our phones will be returned and another is that a phone will be issued. I don't want to bring my phone and leave it in some bag all summer if it isn't going to be given back at all but I don't want to leave it at home and have all my numbers missing...

    Candidate Kits

    Mine were three paragraphs too. 2500 characters is roughly one page double spaced so unless your paragraphs are really short you probably won't be able to fit five in. I checked the characters on mine and not all mine were even close to 2500 either. Don't feel like you need to fill the entire...

    Chances? College Student, Graduates in 2011

    I'd say you have a good shot. There will certainly be questions about your age and whether it is a good thing or a bad thing I don't think anybody here can tell you but I would go for it.

    black low quarters - females

    I went to Ft. Belvoir and Ft. Myer and they weren't there. I ended up driving all the way to Andrews AFB to get them.

    Running Issue

    Shin splints maybe? Ice the area and stretch your calves/shins (you should be stretching all muscles but pay more attention). It might be a problem with your shoes but it could also just be an adjustment from never running before. I would continue to bike (not hurting because of no pressure on...

    academy entrance drug test

    The statistic I posted about 30% of parents not knowing that their child drinks points to me being correct. The other 30% who does know their child drinks still does not necessarily know how much or how often.

    academy entrance drug test

    No parent thinks their kid smokes or drinks. 42.6% of 12th graders have smoked at least once. http://www.sadd.org/stats.htm http://www.edgarsnyder.com/drunk-driving/underage-statistics.html http://www.whitehousedrugpolicy.gov/drugfact/marijuana/marijuana_ff.html A lot are wrong. I don't know...
