So, I just had to take my yearly GAT exam on AKO, and see it has changed this year. I hate this test more than most of them. Besides the 1000 questions, they now ask things like your current blood pressure and cholesterol levels. Amy I the only person that doesn't have those numbers memorized? They ask if I have a best friend. They ask my most recent PT test scores by Raw data and then by computed score. I think this test is getting out of hand.

P.S. When they ask if you drink caffeine the correct answer is no, or else you're looking at another 100 questions.

CPT (Join to see) they could import the info from your medical file but: 1. It’s supposed to be anonymous. People are already in aluminum foil hat mode. 2. It’s trying to help YOU make the connection between what you think you do and consequences. Many are unaware of the linkage. If the shoe fits wear it.

Having a best friend is an emotional health issue. If you have no one to go to or confide in, it contributes to negative mental health and hopelessness that could lead to other problems.

They’re hoping the self election and anonymity will lead you to enlightenment

Sir I completely agree, especially since a lot of what they are asking is not exactly top secret. My last PT score for instance is already in the Army system, as well as my BP from when I go to see the doctor, as well as cholesterol level. How much a Soldier drinks alcohol, or caffeine or smokes OK I get it but when big Army already has the information there is no reason to beat a dead horse.
