It's worth mentioning that during normal flight and squadron functions, you're required to have uniform shoes. Intramurals are a different story slightly because you can bring cleats or special shoes if you'd like. It's not really necessary because mainly ICs worry about it and most everyone...

Nope! You get wonderful issued shoes! Mine gave me some problems, others loved them... depends on how they work for you. They're nice to have once basic ends though. That's what I looked forward to most after basic to be honest (after connecting to the outside world of course)

For the desktop, I wouldn't think of having one before recognition. Some of the upperclassmen in my squad have desktops, but there really is no point for desktops except for gaming (which you won't be allowed to do). It's damn near impossible to run modern games on a laptop so that's why...

Clothes don't matter much at all. As long as it looks respectable, we won't judge. I personally think it kinda looks ridiculous when an appointee does the whole dressing up for this like slacks and blazers. Think along the lines of casual nice.

I got really bad senioritis last year (combined with knowing i'd have to take Calc again anyways) and ended up getting an F in my Calc class. I'm definitely not proud of it and I don't advise blowing off your time and your instructor's time like I did, but it didn't have any impact on my...

I'm not sure of the time commitment for EMT, someone else in it would be better to answer that. Ski Club takes as much commitment as you want. If you have a weekend free, you can head out with them if you've joined the club and will pay for the equipment for the week. From what I understand...

Just like you were told you wouldn't?

As long as the admissions deadline isn't passed I believe you're still good. I'm not sure when it is since I haven't really followed the admissions process this year, but as long as it's not past due, by all mens do it. If you don't submit it at all, that will hurt your chances much, much...

My roommate and I will be joining you. I think it's just an informational meeting. But I've been wrong before... many times.

There is a paper appointment that is sent through the mail. My ALO came to my High School for the Senior Assembly last year when the senior slideshow is shown and a bunch of other scholarships are presented. My ALO came and presented a very nice folder and much more decorative appointment...

You get it after, I can't remember exactly when or how long after, but you do get it after.

There's no telling unless you know someone who has gotten a nom from that same Representative or Senator. I never got a phone call from my MOC about a nom. My Sen got me a letter before it showed up online, but my Rep's letter showed up after it showed the nom online. All that matters is you...

You can also make good friends in Basic if you get Ensure, Boost, or whatever the current contract is for protein shake type things. If you had boost and didn't want all of it... you had some people willing to do stuff for it. I'm just mad I didn't get told I needed that stuff.

I'm not sure that it'll matter where you list the athlete scholar thing, just make sure you note it. To answer for just about any application you fill out for colleges or scholarships, as long as you're still within the character or word limit for the accomplishments section, not damn near...
