    Upon arrival, what are the consequences for not passing the PRT? TRUST ME I do not plan on failing, I'm working really hard to improve my run time to a solid 7-minute mile. I just want to know what to expect if anything happens. Thanks!

    Wisdom Teeth

    Should I get my wisdom teeth taken out before I go to USNA or while I am there? I-day is in 7 weeks, and I am scheduled to get the surgery on 5/21. Is this too close to I-Day to get them taken out? Any thoughts are appreciated. Thanks! :smile:

    Any questions?

    Could you please explain the idea of PRO KNO (which means professional knowledge, right? I'm not sure) to me? Is that something the upperclass make you do or is it an academic class?
