People can get kicked out for a lot of reasons.. I've seen it from injuries, medical reasons, mental reasons, failure to adapt, failure to train, failing physical and written tests, being asmo'd too many times, busted on drugs, found out they were pregnant, had a warrant for their arrest, going UA, destroying government property, lying or not disclosing information, etc

It's fairly common.. I think for my 900 division we lost about 1/3 by the end.. not sure how it is for everyone else. Most people got weeded out the first 2 weeks, after that it was mainly just due to physical/written tests

Okay, I've looked everywhere for an updated version of my answer I'm seeking. Can you, hour per hour, go over the schedule of a typical day of RTC, please? I know I'm not the only person looking for this type of info.

Everyday is different in ways. You wake up at 0600 everyday, and you usually go to bed at 2200. You eat 3 meals a day, and do different kinds of training. Usually you'll have a class in the morning or the afternoon. All your spare time is "training time", which usually consists of mock inspections and 8-counts...

Congratulations on your Graduation! I leave on 20130618. I have a question for you, how many times did they take check your heart rate/blood pressure during P days? At MEPS I had a very hard time keeping both down because I have a case of "White Coat Syndrome" and I am scared that if it's too high I will get in trouble.
