Compliment really - those are tough tests so you need solid habits to get through em. That and you are in finance and did well on the ASTB so I figured you had some big tests under your belt.

Hey appreciate that! Probably put about 350+ hours into studying for the tests. It makes studying for things like the ASTB and OCS very easy lol.

@Marmaduke123 @KaleDaSquid Y’all are preaching to me right now haha. I’m glad to find friends in a similar situation— Leaving a career in the financial industry to pursue a much more honorable/ rewarding career.

Right there with you my man, turn 32 this year. Never had knee issues but working back into the 9 minute mile range is a chore I didn't expect lol.

I would much prefer a strength based test. I can pass the other portions with flying colors and I get to the run and I'm struggling. Work in progress lol.

Yeah, running is hard when you get older. Is it do-able? Yeah! But it’s ok, it just makes us better. Most of the time I just ask myself after a sprint at the end, “But did you die?!” ?? I can’t wait to low key smoke the younger candidates ??

Lol I know I won't be smoking the young candidates on the run but keeping up to a certain extent would be nice haha
