    Primary/Principal Nomination

    Just got word that my nomination from my congressman, was a "primary" nomination. Is this the same thing as a principal nomination? I've heard that folks who get that nom have a slot opened for them as long as they are qualified. Does that now apply to me?? Additionally, I have a nomination from...

    Yeah, if y'all have any questions on what REAL Ratline life is like, PM me or Strength and Honor. We're actually pretty good friends so I'm sure he'd say the same things as me. Rah VA Mil.

    Big Admission Update

    Very similar deal here. We're constantly broken down, majority of folks break just due to the cadre and RDC. I wouldn't call it hazing, but you certainly wouldn't see it anywhere else. That gets most people. The object of it all: build yourself back up.

    Oh I know the academics will be the hard part for me. I'll do what I need to do to be successful. At VMI it was similar, we all were equally worthless. We still are... At West Point, we will be equally worthless. I'm no better than anyone else.

    So my college work is just extra? It doesn't count towards my qualification? Was that all done in high school?

    Nominated and fully qualified yields how much acceptance?

    I as fully qualified and nominated last year and didn't get in. It's all a matter of how high you are on the NWL.

    Big Admission Update

    Rat here, Yesterday I just got the official word that my congressman is nominating me. At the interview, the committee basically nominated me on the spot and said "we're going to do everything we can to get you there." And I know that they were talking about maybe switching up the way they...

    hazing

    I'm going through the Ratline right now and haven't seen anything all that bad. The worst I've seen is one of my cadre members take a Rat into a room, close the shade and make him do more push-ups than he's technically allowed to do. He deserved it though. I promise it's not that bad at all...
