Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
That 60% score on push-ups and sit-ups you need will cost a lot more than than a 60% score cost in OSUT. Your form must be perfect. Master it.

I hope your grader doesn't shatter your confidence. We'll hold you to that statement. Give it everything you've got. Good luck.XCrunner wrote:I'm very confident in my abilities to pass with at least a 70% in all categories so I won't have to test again in RIP.

Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
I was out there for the PT this morning and let me tell you. Some of these guys need help with doing push ups and situps. The guys that I graded didn't exceed more than 47 push ups and some were sitting right at 60 sit ups. UNSAT!!!!!!!

Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
I think I drove by the RIP barracks this morning as they were all returning from the PT test. That's a damn big looking class. I can't imagine the weak ones will fair too well in that herd.SupplyRanger wrote:I was out there for the PT this morning and let me tell you.

Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
Well SupplyRanger, do you know how Kozzman555 fared? Having had pneumonia three weeks ago it couldn't have gone too well even if he was normally in good shape.
You would think that by the time these young guys got here they would pretty much know what was expected of them and be ready to do it. Guess not, huh?

Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
I have no clue how he did. I showed up and was shocked to see 250 guys in formation waiting to get graded. We had about 30-40 graders out there to help with the PT Test. I'm sure he will call you tonite if he has the chance. If not, I will follow up in the a.m. to see what his scores were.RangerRon wrote:Well SupplyRanger, do you know how Kozzman555 fared?

Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
Switched jobs so I have not clue when I'll even remotely be in that area. I have ANCOC in August. So maybe sometime during the weekend if we aren't busy and your not busy, I'll meet you half way some where. When the time comes I will let you know.Jim wrote:Good to know you continue to ensure standards are met, Jason.

Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
Well it was a good try. Thanks for all your efforts. Since I have not met him and he came to ArmyRanger.com only two weeks before he shipped I don't know that we ever saw any PT results so don't know what kind of shape he is in. If he didn't make it, it will be up to him to do whatever it takes.SupplyRanger wrote:I have no clue how he did. I showed up and was shocked to see 250 guys in formation waiting to get graded.

Re: Starting RIP March 2nd...
I just got a call from kozzman555 and he did pass his PT test today and will be starting RIP in the next class. He was so pumped that he passed after having pneumonia three weeks ago. I think he would have started tonight if they would let him.
Anyway he is on his way it looks like.
I want to thank SupplyRanger and Xcrunner for helping out with commo between him and me.
