<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>There's a Sapper Handbook on the Sappee Facebook page you can use to study. I believe the recommended PT score is 270, but do your best to be higher. I'm training myself because I want to go to Sapper School too. Good luck to you. Look around YouTube videos and online as well to get as much information as you can. Some points of interest I've noticed are Land Nav (especially at night) and patrolling (especially in leadership positions), and knots.SGT Private RallyPoint MemberThu, 07 May 2020 21:40:43 -04002020-05-07T21:40:43-04:00Response by CPT Private RallyPoint Member made May 8 at 2020 1:02 AM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>Unless you have a chain of command that is really willing to put in a lot of work to make this happen, your chances of going are 0%. They currently only accept AOC/MOS: 12A, 12B, 12C, and 12N. As an 11B, you would need an MOS waiver request signed by an O-5 then routed to the engineer proponent for approval/disapproval. Most classes get filled with new 12As attending EBOLC from the RUMINT I've heard.<br /><br />You are an airborne infantryman, not a combat engineer. If you want to do something special during this contract, you should start training for Ranger school. If you are set on Sapper, you should research what you need to do to change your MOS to 12B as soon as possible. Even as a 12B, there is no guarantee you will be offered Sapper.CPT Private RallyPoint MemberFri, 08 May 2020 01:02:35 -04002020-05-08T01:02:35-04:00Response by 1SG Private RallyPoint Member made May 8 at 2020 1:31 AM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>I suggest you use your super internet sleuthing powers to actually find information about Sapper School qualification. I will give you a hint. Try Sapper Leader School and Fort Leonard Wood1SG Private RallyPoint MemberFri, 08 May 2020 01:31:50 -04002020-05-08T01:31:50-04:00Response by SSG Dennis O'Connor made May 8 at 2020 7:24 PM

<div class="images-v2-count-0"></div>As an 11B I'm wondering why you aren't focusing on Ranger school instead of a school geared towards engineers. If I were you Ranger would be my focus.SSG Dennis O'ConnorFri, 08 May 2020 19:24:15 -04002020-05-08T19:24:15-04:00Response by COL John McClellan made May 8 at 2020 8:35 PM
