    Did DodMERB receive your Initial Medical Exam? Due to covid restrictions my DD didn't do her medical exam until Dec 15.
    Good Luck

    They sent me an email, but a message also popped up on my portal later on.

    Did USAFA Accept your scores? I am taking mine tomorrow and I might end up with a similar set of scores!

    Not sure, they haven't removed my check mark yet, which is a good sign. However, it could be because the portal keeps getting shut down for maintenance. But aim for a better mile time than 9:30 at least! It's still risky, but depending on your other scores it might be alright. I saw someone get in with a 9:15. I'm sure you'll do great!

    Make sure to focus on lengthening your stride when running, if you're running 4 laps try to do them in under 2:20. Whatever you do, don't give up and remind yourself of why it's worth it while you're running. If you feel like you're hyperventalating, focus on pushing all the air out of your lungs and recover by running a bit slower until you can catch your breath, don't walk.

    Walking is what killed my time tbh because I got nervous and started too fast. If you do start walking, count to 10 and then force yourself to start running again. With every timed event make sure to pace yourself. Good luck! Let me know how it goes, not sure if you'll see this before your cfa, but lmk if you want tips for any of the other events.
