Navy can go 10-1 this year...can't beat BC of course :D Alex 2-0 to the Yanks, WHO'S YOUR DADDY MEXICO???

Anyone else going to be a 4/c (freshman) Midshipman in NROTC or USNA this fall (guess the USNA guys would already be sworn in)? I know you guys are out there. Where are you from, where are you going to school, and what are you planning to do in the Navy? I'm attending Boston College, reporting...

Thanks for the help Ed! Alex "It's a beautiful day, don't let it get away"-U2

Same thing happened to me when I tried the flight sim at the Air and Space museum in DC. Of course I was doin a lot of crazy shit I probably wouldn't do in real life, so that's why. Alex "It's a beautiful day, don't let it get away"-U2

Hey, sorry if someone has asked this before, I looked but couldn't find it. Anyway I was in Borders bookstore today killing time so I picked up an ASTB study guide and flipped thru one of the practice exams, and that thing scared the hell out of me. My question is, I'm starting NROTC in the...

Wouldn't say that it wasn't tough, just that I wouldn't think that my grades, etc were THAT great. Altho MrSWO said on the military.com boards that the applicant pool is larger than USNA (and fewer spots available), I had no idea that was the case. SATs aren't that bad...just get a study...

I should mention that altho I will be part of the NROTC unit at BU, I will be attending Boston College and not the other so-called "university" on Commonwealth Ave. :D Also, as F18wannabe said, even if you don't get a scholarship you can take the NS classes and join the program if you go to a...

I got a NROTC scholarship to my first-choice school (Boston U.) next fall with about a 3.2-3.3 GPA (admittedly at a school w/ a reputation for grading very tough), 1480 on SATs (760 V, 720 M), a few extra-curriculars but nothing really outstanding (winter track, JV lacrosse, Model UN, VP of Mock...

Slightly OT, does anyone know if your legal residence changes when you go to college? I live in Philly currently but going to Boston College next year. Needless to say I'd much rather pay taxes in Pennsylvania than Massachussetts. Also, are NROTC midshipmen eligible for military tax credits...

Whats up everyone, I'll be starting NROTC next year and hopefully going into aviation. My question is, how much will where I go to college affect my chances at getting an aviation slot?? I'm probably going to go either to Tulane or Boston College (taking NROTC classes at BU), I'm leaning...

Just wanted to say thanks to everyone for the advice and all...I'm not 100% sure yet, but I think I'm probably going to go ahead and go to college, then hopefully naval aviation afterwards. I've had time to calm down a bit since September 11...I still want to kill those bastards but I can wait...

OK here's the deal, I'm 17 years old, just started my senior year in HS. I've wanted to be a Navy pilot my whole life and I'm waiting to hear if I've been accepted for an NROTC scholarship or not. Problem is, even if all goes well that means I'll have to wait another year on HS, 4 years of...

Beowulf, I just had my interview back in May. Hope yours went well, and good luck with the process. Hope to see you in API in 4 1/2 years :) Alex quote: Hey all. I'm rather new to this forum and all, but i find it very useful. I have an ROTC interview tomorrow in Buffalo. And I was just...

Thanks for the help ASU and Frumby. I'm sure I'll do fine with the PT once it comes down to it, I think it's probably just me getting myself worried about it. As for the Tomcats, unfortunately yeah I know they're supposed to go out of service soon. I heard the last Tomcats are supposed to fly...

Hey everyone, I'm 17 and will be in my senior year of HS next year, I am very interested in NROTC (definitely doing it, even if I don't get the scholarship) and wondering if anyone here took that route. Most of the talk I see is about OCS, are the horror stories I'm hearing about OCS PT true...
