my partner just left for basic and then he’ll be going to sam houston for 68W AIT, thank you for all the info, makes me feel a lot better to know all that he’ll be experiencing : )
Hey what’s up! So Monday-Friday you do PT as a company. You start off with the Prep Drill which is 10 exercises. Then depending on the day, you’ll run or do circuit training (events that the DS comes up with). For 68w we only had one ruck and that was at Camp Bullis on the final day; it was like a 3mile ruck at your own pace. You only have to take one ACFT. You don’t have to pass it tho; don’t let them tell you that you do. But overall, it’s not hard when it comes to the physical aspect.
Was it difficult I have no prior health care experience I’m going 68w I got a 70 after studying the asvab 3 hours a day for an entire month… I hear you take like 1-2 test a week
I didn’t have any health care experience at all. You just gotta learn how to prioritize your time and study. During the EMT phase, we had a test like every 4-7 days. It was around 10 chapters per test

i just enlisted as a 68 whiskey. i thought you only have 3 chances to pass the NREMT before you are reclassed?
Unless they changed it since 2021, then it should be still 6. It was originally 3 and done before Covid.
What is the physical aspect like? That’s really the only thing I’m nervous about like rucks and the acft?
