Tips on boot camp and dive prep?

Ya the BECC courses he is doing in the computer are horrible... Long, boring days of clicking through the computer. He should have plenty of free time still, we were done at around 1630 and off on weekends. Dive prep is designed to weed out people and it's tough for a reason. It has about a 40% passing rate. Good news is that very few people fail out of dive school after making it there.

SO prep does their own thing. We shared a barracks with them but that was about all. They don't do the computer classes or anything, their classes are mostly fitness and nutrition related. The majority of people who don't make it through BUD/s prep are med dropped, injuries and all that. But the weeding out process for SO takes place after prep.
