WOCS?

Currently working on my packet for WOCS and Flight School, I'm hoping to submit it for the November board. Does anyone have any helpful tips on what to work on before hand? Funny stories about their experience? TIA

Run, run, and run.

Also, get well acquainted with the new PT test., it nay well be in full effect by the time you actually get to through selection and go to WOCS

WOCS is relatively easy. In reality, there's only about 23 training days. However, every class, people fail the initial PT test, and it's common for 15-25 people in a class to first time fail land nav (you get two chances). It's a very small course. Most failures come from people not understanding how to plot or shoot and don't speak up for help, rather than people busting time or getting lost. Stay diligent in the areas you should already be proficient in and you'll be fine. WOCS doesn't really introduce anything new, except maybe a few behavioral standards. Focus time on getting housing. I got on the housing list in March before my class started. It's June and I still haven't heard back. I had been looking off post and had something else lined up. Good luck with your packet, we'll see you soon.
