So I've been approved for a 68V reclass and I've re-enlisted for a school date in early June. I've done a bit of research and it is a little overwhelming (especially since I'm not the quickest study in math). Can anyone give me some specific topics other than math to really dive into? Anatomy is obvious and already on my checklist but as for the rest... well, I'm looking to earn high marks so the more the prep the better!

So I just graduated my Tech school recently and In my opinion there’s really no way to prepare for the courses other than just taking the course itself and studying. The instructors give you everything you need in order to be successful in your career field. Best of luck to you and I hope I was able to help you.

Don’t cram to hard now. Because the way they teach you and prepare you will be enough. It’s gonna be a waterfall of information and knowledge. But you can do it. The beginning classes don’t worry about. It’s the actual respiratory stuff to worry about. Because some classes will overlap. Learning one studying for another.

I am in the school now. Don’t start cramming anything at all. They will teach you everything the way it will be tested. Your first few months here will be college. So whatever you have now just know you will redo it. If you wanna focus on anything I would focus on properly performing your apft. They will grade to the standard. Put your effort into that and you’ll be fine. The rest will come when you get here.

Develop consistent study habits at the end of your class day....regardless of if you perceive the material for that subject easy or not. Formulas that you are taught early on in UIW phase will not go away, commit them to memory early on, so this way it is not such an uphill battle.
