Unlike flight school, a lot of what happens there is classified. We can't post gouge online if you want a leg up to study. I can tell you to study geography and the kind of military organization stuff you'll learn at OCS, and that's about it. I've also added something to the thread helolumpy posted to clarify billet selection.
I'm not at all concerned with the material or studying. More concerned with schedule, where most students live, where the best bars are, course structure, PT, miscellaneous BS, and anything else that has to do with the course other than the material. Not concerned with billets as that wont apply to me. Thanks for any info that you don't mind sharing.

Is that why all the Spies clam up when I ask why they are sporting these patches on their cubicle wall?

I think the powerpoint ranger tab takes the cake. I wish I knew someone in army intel so I could give them one.

I just graduated. I can answer some of these questions.

- You probably mean in terms of difficulty. You may need to be, there were people that failed out of our class and some were kicked out of the program. By no means is the program impossible, they want you to graduate but you have to put in effort.
- More concerned with schedule
About 5 months long.
- where most students live
Virginia Beach Area, off-base
- where the best bars are
I think you can handle this on your own.
- course structure:
Powerpoint, guest speakers, field trips, videos, projects, tests...pretty basic learning tools
- PT
Mandatory once a week PT. On your own.
- and anything else that has to do with the course other than the material
You will learn about everything that is important to being an intelligence officer.
- Not concerned with billets as that wont apply to me
Reservist?

That term has several meanings -- are you civilian or active duty? I can't figure out if you're getting a good deal or the shaft...
It's a bad deal for me that I am unplugged from my operational community for an extended period of time. It's a good deal in that I'm getting time to unplug near a beach. Just trying to figure out what kind of adminstrivia and other queepy stuff that may make my life miserable, other than physically being in a structured entry level course. Over all I am looking forward to the experience....I think.
