Re: Sitrep

Ranger Jim I just got the call from my recruiter today. I got disapproved, and now need to go to a specialist for further testing. A set back and was disappointing to hear, although it means I just have more time to prepare now. It is frustrating but I will continue to get ready and fight tooth and ...

Re: Sitrep

Ranger Jim I resubmitted the packet again today for hopefully the last time. A form that is only valid for 30 days had to be resigned I cannot remember the specific form , but it was no longer valid . I was away for a week and last week here in Boston was basically a wash because of the terrorist at...

Re: New PT Scores

Ran into a few obstacles with Credits being a transfer at school, taking summer classes to get everything squared away so gradua...

Re: ADD

Ranger Cams. I am still off the medication and thankfully have had no ill sided effects. While on the medication my weight would fluctuate between 205-210 which I think was due to the appetite being thrown off by the medication. Since being off I have been at 200lbs for the past 4-5 months. I feel b...

Re: ADD

Rangers, A update from this situation from this past semester. I was able to end the semester with a B+, B, B, B-, and B-. Hard work and determination can go a long way and I realize now that those "meds" were not needed. Surprisingly the doc was very happy about the success. I have about ...

Re: ADD

Rangers, Thank you for all the input. I only took them during the school year and with that only during the school week. I called my doctor today and told him that I would like to try a semester without them and see how it goes. He was skeptical, but agreed to it. Honestly, since stopping with them ...

Re: ADD

Ranger another damn texan, I feel that I am motivated enough to cut them off permanently. I didn't really have a choice in 8th grade but I sure as hell do now. Since off them for a few weeks now, although having to concentrate that extra bit more, my grades in classes have been basically the same. E...

ADD

Rangers, I have searched the forums and have found that it looks like you have to be off medication for ADD for at least one year for service. I will not lie, that I was diagnosed with a mild case of ADD in 8th grade and have been on medication since, but only for the actual school day. My main ques...

New PT Scores

Rangers, Since posting my Intro I have been working on my PT scores 6 days a week. I conducted a self-administered PT test yesterday(push-ups and sit-ups), and today with a 2 mile run. Scores are getting better, thanks to Ranger Silverback's killer sprint workout, this helped immensely with my runni...
