As stated previously on this thread, the bearsharks are disliked by many in the brigade. I dragged with a guy from 25th a long time ago, and he said his company was full of tools.

Ouch, that's the Bearsharks. I'm N co 26th pl:smile:

Just a random question I guess, not that it will affect my performance over the summer.

I'm going to miss wearing a watch more than anything.

Are we allowed to have multivitamins sent in a care package during Plebe Summer?

Take life one semester at a time. I had Calc I, Chem I and Physics I first semester, it wasn't easy. My lowest average throughout the year I think was a C+ in Calc II. Make sure you get a strong foundation in Calculus. Mine isn't strong right now, so I won't validate during Plebe Summer. I...

Here are the courses I took to prep for Plebe Year, while in the Foundation program at a Military College: Calc I and II Chem I and II Physics I Vietnam War History and 2 english courses. Hope this helps.

I would recommend you show up as early as possible, but then again waking up too early sounds miserable...

It's on a case by case basis, depending on what their policy is. I called them when I reapplied, and was told to go through the whole process again, so applications, interviews, and wait. I do know others whose noms were "transferred" or held for the second year, without them having to reapply...

Macs aren't common on DoD Networks

I hope I get to do fleet week when my time comes. I heard from a sailor that it is one of his most fun experiences in NYC. I think he even came back the year after, without being assigned to a participating ship.

I would refuse to consider typing notes on an Ipad. How could possession of an Ipad be justified for a Plebe, if issued, when it's predecessor, the "Ipad Nano" (aka Ipod Touch) would simply be considered contraband? However, I do recall seeing an Imac (to my surprise) in one of the many...

netbooks I would assume that most of their data is stored on servers, and therefore can be accessed from any computer. As a soon to be plebe, here's my opinion on the netbooks: the Dell ones they issued for 2013 seem to have too many problems and lack in functionality, but the Lenovo's...

A week or two before I-day, you should get a letter with all that info.

2013 had cheap netbooks from Dell, but 2014 is getting (what I think seems to be) higher end Lenovo products.

singaporemom, I am in a situation you can relate to. I have spent most of my life in France, and have had the BCG. What do you recommend I do about the whole TB test thing? The Standard Form 86 (background info) is also the worst part of the PTR for me because I've travelled as much as your...

Hi mom!:smile:

thanks for posting this

Some of you have mentionned Youtube and Facebook as being important reasons why a wireless network was not implemented at USNA, but I do recall seing mids using Facebook and Youtube while I was visiting. Somehow, I think they are not blocked (but fml.com was blocked, I was told) This seems...

accoring to this website http://www.usna.org/plebe09/computerspecs.html plebes ALSO get a netbook, which should be a great tool for potential library visits or group projects, IMO. So somehow this sort of ends the rumor, repeating itself every year,that "the new Plebes will get a laptop next...
