I have an A&S seat for april of 2016 and i am preparing mentally and physically but what are some other considerations going into A&S and hopefully moving on to ITC ? I know its broad stroke question but im trying to cover whatever possible in this spectrum.
Considerations
- Thread starter Nate0331
- Start date
If you use the search function on this site, and join the MARSOC mentor group, the information you desire is all available.
Nobody will help you G2 A&S here on the site.
I'm leaving this thread open, but really want to close it, another Mod/Admin might close it.
All non-Raider members - relevant helpful commentary is ok, no dog piling or bashing/flaming.
Raiders - have at it, this is your bailiwick.
One thing to consider is that while this is the information age, the only thing you need to get through your selection and training (include: life) is a working set of eyes, ears, and gonads.
That is it.
It tires me to see people overwhelm themselves with worry and doubt (especially from our house). Even if the first two subjects are not the case with you or anyone else - there is no magic answer to any magic question that is going to get anyone through a selection or a school that turns a bone-throwing savage into a warfighter without that gear list. Cannot happen, will not happen.
Show up ready to go; be conditioned (body & brain) and display a positive attitude with a willingness to learn.
The problem isn't asking a question but that you are asking questions that do not apply to what you need to know to do your job. Doing so displays a mentality that says "I'm not here entirely" and that will flag you.
More relevant to now, and on a broader scale, we (this forum) do not like seeing that mentality displayed just as much as your future evaluators/cadre/psycho-analysts do not like the said traits in a candidate.
We get it with 16 year olds, but not mil guys (especially an 03 type).
Good luck,
H/A

I'd say this thread is a consideration point. Self reliance, individual problem solving skills, resourcefulness: you will be evaluated on all of these.
Check out ITC prep advice, about 10-20 threads down. Staminal covered down on it with a lot of information
