I can second Rach4USN's closing statement. Focus on whatever motivates you and push as hard as you can. For me it was what my wife's voice would sound like on the phone if I told her that I failed the final PFA. I am surprised I didn't finish faster than everyone haha!

I'm a GM. Love the job. Graduated this year too from A school. Currently at my first command.

You can visit your home since it's well within the 300 mile radius. I have gone to so many places during my time in GL from Canada, Upper Peninsula, St. Louis, WI, and even broke the rules and drive to Minneapolis-St. Paul. But yea, you can visit your home... thing is, you'll need a liberty buddy for all phases, unless you finish A school and become phase 3+, but that's also dependent on the barracks that you're placed in. Some barracks phase you up faster than others depending on their CoC and rules.
I enjoyed some parts of GM A school, some parts I hated... mostly the instructors' issues. Probably because I've been to school longer than many of my classmates.
But yea, I enjoyed my time in GL even though they were super strict compared to other A school training command bases. It really is what you make of it.
