Anyone have any tips for being successful in drill school? I’ve heard it’s important to learn the first three modules, as well as PRT. Any more advice would be super helpful!

Thank you!

Be humble, keep an open mind. You’ll soon realize that 90% of what you do right now, is not how things are actually done. Have good uniforms. There is no such thing as a field uniform. Be prepared to learn and embrace the next two years of your life!!!

This is your new friend. Read it and memorize it. Word for word, from cover to cover. Oh yeah, don't be that guy who failed the PT Test.

Oh one more thing. When you get there, if you see people walking around talking to themselves or to a tree, don't worry about it. It's normal for there.

Believe it or not, I spent some time practicing my modules & command voice :
1- In front of a mirror
2-Letting someone watch me modulating & following my module script. It worked for me writing it down first after memorizing.
3- Standing by a tree "trunk" at attention modulating. It looked crazy, but it calmed my nerves down.

Good luck.
