Study, don't take the knowledge test for granted. Knowledge is a zero tolerance deal with only a few Military Schools , Jump Master, repel master, Pathfinder are a few of them...... Did I mention Study, don't take the knowledge test for granted.

I'd prepare for Pathfinder in much the same manner I prepared for any of the unclassified courses in which I participated. Study the course(know what you are getting into), study the content(this is a head course and the information is available from multiple sources), discuss the course with graduates(you're ahead on that one) and, last but not least, remember the guiding principle of all Army courses, special skills or not - the purpose of the course is not to produce failure; the course(s)' object is to produce qualified Soldiers. And finally remember that literally thousands of Soldiers have successfully completed the course, if they could do it so can you.

Which one are you going to? Is it a MTT or the one at Benning? But you really have to take it one subject at a time. You should be studying​ nomenclature. They should have the packet on their website or in the welcome packet. It is a very tough course. Ever subject is very intense. It will only overwhelm you. So don't study everything. Just be familiar with the subjects.

SFC(P) (Join to see) - Those are some of my buddies. I'm a part of the Warrior Training Center. That's the one I did. It's very instance. More so then the traditional course. Don't plan on having free time. I spent the night in my office to study. But you have to take breaks too. But it is a fire hose for of course. I will say that they have some of the best instructors in the army.
