can't say I didn't see that one coming.

Hence, your nuclear training begins...our entertainment at your expense. 

You will do well to maintain the correct posture and attitude (as you did in the above) when spanked by the ones that can help make you or break you.

Great answer

a good want'ta'be wouldn't be waiting on a 'waiver' because he wouldn't need one

if I weren't waiting on a waiver I wouldn't be a want'ta'be, would I? nevertheless, it looks like the A in precalculus actually wasn't enough to get me the waiver for my high school grades. my recruiter is trying to see if someone will pull some strings, but I doubt it's going to happen. In the meanwhile, I'm gonna take the DLAB test to see if I qualify for a category IV language as a CTI.

thanks for everyone at nukeworker that has been kind enough to help, elaborate, or criticize (every bit of advice helps)

if anyone has any advice for what I might be able to do in order to get the waiver, I'd appreciate your advice.

Have you seen any documentation that your waiver got denied?  Or did you just take your recruiter's word for it?  I get tons of students with academic waivers.  I don't see why you would be any different.....unless you've got some other issues to go along with your bad grades.

hey i never found out my ASVAB line scores, they sealed my envelope and told me no to open it, i do know i got a 96,but i thought it was weird that my recruiter cant get my line scores

Well, I signed my contract for the nuclear field last month to go into basic Jan. 13, 2010. A long wait lies ahead. More time for more push ups and running I guess. Here goes nothing.

i've been waiting since november and am leaving september.. the hardest part has to be keeping your nose clean

[mellor_21]

its not hard to get in trouble..

but i'm not gonna argue about it. op, it was just a heads up, be very careful. i've barely stayed in by the skin of my teeth a few times

[mellor_21]

thanks that just made my day =)
but i'm signing off. have fun and be safe

To all you that signed up for the program. Good luck. I thought I was the smart kid. Top of the class in brains and imagination. but once I hit NPS, all the gloves were off. 8 hours of class followed by 3-4 hours of studying most everynight for 6 months. 4+ years of nuclear theory shoved down your throat in 6 months. Don't get me wrong. When you pass the comp test, you are convinced you can learn anything. If its not the most challenging academic school in the US Military, hats off to the poor saps that are.
Stand by for the adventure of your academic life.

I ship Oct 1 and I can't wait. I was originally supposed to ship March 1, 2010 but because I am 24 the individuals at MEPS managed to get me in 3 days before my birthday. I am ecstatic about my bright new future!

I wish some of you guys had my recruiter. The process that lead to me signing my nuke contract has been very smooth. My recruiter has done everything in her power to get me in. No delays what so ever.

Anyway, who's leaving Oct 1?!
