Wow, that is smaller than I thought, but I guess it makes sense since the academy is just over 1000 cadets total.

I am wondering the same.

Perhaps that sounds convenient to you right now, but in reality, you should continue training after AIM. Hopefully, you will be getting stronger as you train. Thus, I would recommend taking it again your senior year in order to max out.

Wow, thanks for the info. Just out of curiosity, what is your relationship to these students?

Congratulations! How did you hear the news?

How did he hear? Was it on Bear's Den?

Yes, I did get a response. Did you?

I got the same email.

Not here.

I am not sure why running on a track would affect your pace. When I did the PFE (Coast Guard Academy version of CFA) I got 8.45 on the 1.5 mile run even though I had been getting 9:00-ish on all my training runs in my neighborhood. I think my minimum training score was 8:52. Of course, this...

What exactly is a beansprout? When I visited the academy this past Bear's Day the cadets were calling me that, but I didn't know that it was an "official" term for anything. I assumed it was simply slang referring to the visiting high-school seniors. I was also surprised (and kind of excited!)...

There are two types of college-level physics: algebra based and calculus based. Engineers and most scientists take calc-based, while nurses, some scientists (biologists mainly), and pre-med folks only need the algebra based.

For some reason I was under the impression that college re-applicants cannot apply EA. Perhaps I am wrong?

Thanks for all the advice. My plan B college is a local liberal arts college, so I do not think that they will be on the CSPI list. Also, I have been dual enrolled at the college I am planning to attend for the last five semesters--I have taken Calc I and II, Multivariable Math I, and Physics I...

What was your daughter's plan B?

Hello, I have just been waitlisted to USCGA and do not think that it will be an option since I also need a medical waiver for a shoulder separation in the past 12 months. I am following through with plan B, and would like some information on OCS options for entering the CG as an officer. Is...
