    PT Training

    IIRC, the basketball throw is the part of the physical fitness test a person takes when applying to the Naval Academy. It may be used somewhere else, but as far as I'm concerned... Anyways, what I'd do to work out...was pretty much already said. Start by running every other day. Go one mile...

    I just finished my first year of NROTC as a College Programmer, and have been awarded a 3-year LREC scholarship. My major is International Studies, with a minor in Arabic...so I'll be taking Arabic for the next four semesters, as well as classes about the Middle East, History of Islam, etc...

    LOA Received!

    Well, K_Delrosario does have a point...it's surprising that a Calculus teacher's "best student" got a 25 on the Math ACT... My sister had gotten a LoA in the middle of November after she applied (Now she's flying F-18 Superhornets, pretty cool), so I'm not worried at all...I even finished my...

    So, I passed the FALANT today...

    Yeah, for USNA, I had to take a remedial Farnsworth Lantern test. As I said, I passed, but I'm worried about one thing: I head that on I-Day, they test you for color blindness yet again. My question is: Can I just show the people administrating the test the paperwork that I've done for the...

    Naval Academy Summer Seminar 2009

    Yes! I got my acceptance letter today! Haha, I'm so relieved! Just for general information, I'm in Session 1, and am from Plant City (Near Tampa, FL). I also did not recieve an acceptance e-mail, so I wouldn't sweat it if you didn't get one. Good luck to everyone else!

    I-Day Testing

    I've heard from another source that on I-Day, potential mids get tested for medical inefficencies, one of which being colorblindness. Up until now, I’ve had no trouble AT ALL with determining color in my life, until a few weeks ago when I chanced upon one of those “Ishihara” colorblind tests...

    Assignment restrictions for colorblind?

    Quick question: If a candidate were to pass that FALANT-test thing successfully 100%, would their service assignment still be limited?
