Looking for a female perspective on OCS

If your roots don’t show in a blatantly unnatural way, you’re totally fine.

Are they gonna care what the hair looks like when down cause I know for some having a money piece where the front pieces are bleached could be maybe interpreted as unnatural. I’m able to when up pull it back where it looks like blond highlights all over the top. I’ve considered maybe just toning down how blonde it is for ocs to just avoid it standing out and avoid any root growth standing out.

(If your hair is long) They won’t care what it looks like down, because you will only VERY RARELY see them with your hair down. It will only be down when not in uniform which will only be during head and hygiene and bed time.

Haha okay I was worried thank you all for reassuring me. Cause it’s not that I wouldn’t be willing to color it. It’s just like I don’t like my hair this way so I’m happy it shouldn’t be an issue.

do you have to break 90 degrees for pushup form? I can hit 90 but have trouble breaking it

In standard yes (in practice, no)

I saw some dudes straight up doing the worm during our final PRT.

Try to get as close to 90 as possible. If your form is truly awful, you will get sharked

Okay cool, I've heard that they're really strict during the first test on form. I'm nervous because I can do about 8 really good ones breaking 90 but after that my form breaks down a little and I need to do 17 total.

This may be the wrong place to post this since I realize this thread is about actually being at OCS, however, it is a female question so might as well try it here haha. I went to MEPS last week and my recruiter asked me for a copy for results of my last pap smear. I asked him why and he has not responded. Does every female have to send this in or is something amiss? Luckily I had it done last month so I can get it over to him ASAP but still.

Normal. It's needed for your medical record. If you're selected and commission, it's used to start the clock on your annual.

I went through MEPS almost a month ago and my recruiter just told me last Friday I had to have my Pap test done within 2 years (my last one was in 2020) and a doctors note to submit with my packet by March 8th (this Friday). Thankfully I was able to get an appointment in on Monday and the doctors/staff are being super helpful and doing their best to get everything done by Friday. Still pretty frustrated and crossing my fingers that everything will be done on time.

Hi! I graduated this winter. I did Crossfit for about 6 months before leaving as well as the USNA 100 pushup program. Pushups are where females seemed to struggle the most at OCS.

Thank you for this. I just printed it and will be using it. But could you please walk me through it?

I assume each other day is one big square. Meaning: sets 1-5 including <6, 6-10, and 11-20 columns.
And then Day 2 is the big square below not next to it. Correct?
Thanks. Sorry if this is common knowledge.
