What ever you read in books...may not be the same as what the NAVY wants you to know. My son said there were some college grads in his class at nuke school, and those guys had the hardest time as they didnt deal well with having to RE-learn everything...as what they thought they knew was not HOW the navy wanted them to know it. My son had the hardest time with many of the algebra and calculus equations at nuke school, as they were totally different that what he had learned prior in high school and community college...then he realised most of the equations in nuke school were actually what he had learned in 8TH grade! lol...his teacher was a navy nuke prior to being a teacher!
