I went to boot camp in may of 2012. I'm now an AC2 and all the HMs that were in my division are still E-3s except one who is an HM3. The quotas (percentage of test takers advanced) for last exam were...

Yes, make sure you can pass your pfa (and don't just try to scrape by with a sat, aim for higher!) and know your start guide - the questions on that test come out of that. You'll get e-2 as long as...

That rumor has been going around since before I went to boot camp. Just expect that your hair's gonna get cut.

As long as you can memorize stuff for a test (and forget it right after), you'll be fine for the academic portion of AC school. You don't have to understand it, not yet. All of the tests in block one...

All of the aviation ratings actually go to NAS Pensacola. Corry Station has the CTs and such. AC A school's difficult with a very high dropout rate. If you're not good at studying or memorizing...

Yeah, I definitely don't miss that rush in and out of the head. I started taking my toothbrush to the shower 'cause I never had time to brush my teeth at night otherwise, lol. Was a bit of a shock...

That's true, actually. "Hairstyles shall not be outrageously multicolored or faddish, to include shaved portions of the scalp (other than the neckline)"

If you don't want them to cut your hair in boot, make sure you cut it short enough so that it'll meet regs the entire time you're there 'cause you'll be going to get haircuts a few times. I cut mine...

At least wait until you're in the navy to start complaining about it. Boot camp's not gonna be summer camp even if you do end up getting extra phone calls.

Lol, why join the navy if you think it's such a joke? If you haven't been to boot yet, you shouldn't be complaining about how easy it is anyway. I know a couple people who had that attitude going in....

When you get there, they'll ask if anyone's interested in music or knows drill or anything like that. Pretty sure height & weight's got nothing to do with it.

The only people I saw get kicked out were people who just gave up, refused to follow the rules, or had medical issues. Pretty much, if you wanna stay, you'll stay. You might get set back if you can't...

Got 1, 4, 5, 6, 8, & 10 wrong. Learned a lot though! That stuff about the dixie cup is pretty fascinating, kind of disappointed now that I don't get to wear one as a female.
