Had to do mine this Tuesday & passed thankfully. Was all alone so they were just watching me the whole time lol
Okay I’m doing mine next Tuesday. For the run do they do it on a track? I think running on a track is a lot easier because it’s all flat. Did you try to max out or just go for like good low just to pass?

I did mine on the March Air Reserve Base which has a half mile track (which felt never-ending!) so 3 full laps. My recruiter would tell me the Sat-Med score before each test but pushed me to do more. Ended with 24 push ups, 1:40 plank, and 15:20 mile and half. Truthfully the run was not my best lol, it was super hot out & didn't have enough water beforehand. With that, they know your first few scores will be the worst & can only improve from there!

I heard there aren’t any physical rollable events anymore. I don’t know how true that is
I was told they give you three opportunities to pass the physical events. I’m pretty sure by the end of OCS you just have to be a good low which isn’t too bad when you realize you will be working out almost everyday.

I’m in the 20-24 age range and for males that’s 47 push ups, 1:40 blank and 1.5 miles in 12 minutes.

Obviously they are going to have a gym but does anyone know what else they have at OCS? Like do they have a basketball court, that’s the kind of workout I’d like to do lmao

I wanted SWO but I was scared and stupid so I put supply as #2 and of course now if I didn’t put it I would have gotten swo. Ugh and supply is so much more school. But I have a family so it’s a better job for family life I suppose. Everything happens for a reason
Is it a bad thing to have more than one option? My recruiter wants me to put multiple however I only want SWO.

If you want SWO you are going to get SWO everyone for this board was picked except for one person. I wasn’t picked initially because of some mistake on my paperwork but after fixing it got accepted even after the board because that’s how desperate they are for SWOs right now

I understand, thank you for the information and your insight on this. I was just curious if having a number 2 & 3 option gave off a negative connotation towards the number 1 choice. I see now from your reply that may not be the case. Thank you!
