    PLEASE RESPOND AS LOAs COME IN

    Well I am being recruited by other universities, so if I receive an LOA I am going to contact Coach Heskett. I plan on wrestling, even if I have to walk on. I am from Ohio, which is where Coach Heskett was before he took the WP job. I have talked with him before and have other connections to...

    What sports should I participate in to help for admission to the Academy?

    As an avid wrestler, I am extremely biased. Wrestling is much easier to pick up in high school, especially if you are not in a "powerhouse state" (Penn, Ohio-mine, NY, Mich, Minn, Iowa, Cali, and a few others). It definately teaches discipline, requires strong muscular endurance and cardio...

    PLEASE RESPOND AS LOAs COME IN

    I would guess that you would get both. An email of notification and then an official letter would be my guess.

    PLEASE RESPOND AS LOAs COME IN

    I may not have received an LOA yet (they come out on September 1st), but do know that I am being heavily consider for one (after having an "emergency" interview by my FFR over the phone at around 9:30 PM in which he said it looks as if I should receive one). So I will give you my stats just for...

    CFA Question

    As you can tell, you really need to double those push-ups. Did you take breaks on the up position? At NASS, this how many of us maxed out (there were a few studs that can crank 75 non-stop, but not me): do a bearable amount (at least 45 but the more the better) rest in the up position for a...

    CFA questions

    Does anyone with any past experience know if a 58 is good enough for the Basketball throw. I know everything else is quite strong, I have practiced it before and can get around 70 feet, but when I did it at Navy I had not practiced in about a month and did not have the technique down.

    CFA questions

    Well, I might just retake it again anyway. I could probably max the mile and improve my sprint and definately improve the Basketball throw. The only reason I have a few problems with the Basketball throw is that I have shorter arms (I am 5' 5") and weigh 120 lbs., but I make up for it on all...

    CFA questions

    I took a cfa at usna summer seminar ( wanted to go to sls too but the last session was still during my exams). My scores were basketball throw 58, pull ups max, push ups max, sit ups max, shuttle 8.5, and mile 5:59. My questions are: 1) are these scores high enough- I could improve some...

    I need some advice...

    Wrestling is the worlds best sport! You didn't happen to be in Fargo this year did you because if you were I might have seen you there? For the finger deal, I would just explain it in the remarks section and since the pins are no longer there you should be fine but might need a waiver.

    Will these DQ me?

    How would I go about sending those?

    Will these DQ me?

    Ok, my physical is this coming monday so that is a big weight off my shoulders at least. I just can't wait to be medically qualified and have my nominations in. All I have left to do is my CFA for USMA (did one at the USNASS for USNA) and proofread my candidate statements for the fifth time...

    Convict Conditioning - Do or Don't for CFA prep

    Hey, I'm a pretty intense wrestler so I do tons of body weight conditioning so this might help you out some. To train for push-ups and sit-ups I suggest doing the exercises and trying to develop a pace. Figure out a method that works for you as well. For push-ups I did 50 in the first...

    Will these DQ me?

    No meds for the virus because there is a chance I never will have an outbreak ever again anyway. For the teeth issue, I figure that I might just have to get them waived. The worst thing that could happen is one would get knocked out and any dentist could attach the tooth back in which would...

    skin stuff...

    YEAH! Same wrestling issue with me and I was hoping it would not be a problem.

    Will these DQ me?

    To be honest... you cannot even tell that I have bridged teeth, and they basically act as real teeth. For the Herpes simplex type 1, it is mild, and there is a high chance I never have an outbreak again. Actually just read on a DODMERB form that all that is servicable fake teeth are fine, so I...

    Will these DQ me?

    Ok... the only possible medical conditions I have that may need a waiver are... I have two fake teeth that are bridged and my dentist wants to put implants in when my mouth is done growing, and I have cold sores-herpes simplex type 1 (not the STD) which I may never even get again (only had 1...
