G 13. Never been much of a distance runner. Guess that'll change.

I think everyone was considering a dry run from the point of view of a Plebe, which would be silly. Probably could be good for upperclass, but I assume they do practice plenty. Besides, I was taught to avoid repeating most of the things that Army does. Heheheh.

Aye. I was told by some enlisted Navy friends that your chest can't touch the ground for official pushups. Close, but not touching. The 90-degree elbow is what they told me to make sure of. Seems to me like a tennis shoe would make that happen.

Hey, that's neat. It said in the important information booklet that we wouldn't know until we arrived. Good to know we can get out mailing addresses and everything a bit easier.

They were taking portraits during my CVW last year, which was the last weekend in October. Pretty snazzy stuff. Not sure when the photos were ready.

Big stuff doesn't usually make blisters, just things like pullup bars. Also, why was your box not demanding chalk. Not cool. They taught me that in Elements.

I think you'll be fine. If you're the sort to worry about overloading yourself with work, you're also the sort that has he thinking skills to more or less breeze through AP courses. Breeze being far and away an exaggeration: just make sure you understand the best way for you to study. And if you...

Once we get our company assignments we'll have the Plebe Summer mailing address. And that happens anywhere from a couple weeks to a couple days before I-Day. Or even on I-Day, according to the packet here. Here's the format:MIDN _____ USNA CLASS OF 2016 __ Company, __ Platoon Annapolis, MD 21412

AP Calc AB covers about halfway through what the Academy considers its Calc II class. It's slightly extended. Much of the material is really the same.

I believe it counts, although you can certainly retake it. You can probably expect to run a lot.

My doctor gave me a copy of his own PPD test form, I sent that.

I smell a rat. (see what I did there?)

Yes, I suppose my original post was written in haste. If it was easily accessible, I'd have no reason to deny my parents the chance to see me walk through those doors. But then I also feel that same sense of needing to do this alone - although that's something I've always had trouble with. My...

You're right, anger is probably not the right word. But certainly frustration, at the very least.

Ahh, Hurricane said what I probably should have said. All this jumping on the original poster doesn't help, it's just a big blanket party. Some of us, our parents aren't really all that involved in our lives in general. Besides that, I hardly find it practical to cost them upwards of a thousand...

My parents aren't coming. The cost thing helps, but I just told them, look, I want to do this alone. They respected that. All you can do is tell them your wishes. In the end, they'll do as they wish. EDIT: And you have to take in your parents' perspectives, as tripleplay mentioned.

I just printed it off of the PTR website. Figured I'd lost it or done something stupid. Nice to hear that I'm not a bad guy... It's a confusing form to me. Covered in Naval Health Clinic information. I dunno, I'm sure it can be filled out by any physician.

I feel the same way sometimes. I just try to calm myself whenever I notice I'm getting angry or short with people. I feel bad because my parents probably get the worst of it. Shoot, I got really upset with them today. Sometimes you just have to let go. I'm probably closer with my actual...

Ah, yes, they do seem that way. Makes sense to me. Not really any reason for people to be printing this stuff off yet anyway.

It's working for Firefox. The forms themselves appear to be .pdf files. Awesome find!
