Hey cheetalia! 30 y/o male here, currently in OCS. I was a bit nervous coming in, being a bit older than the normal officer candidate. And I won't lie, it's definitely rough on the body! But you can and will kill it! The biggest thing I can recommend is work on your cardio/running. Get that in order, and be prepared to be stressed and have a LOT of info thrown at you at once, and you will be absolutely fine. Best of luck!
@@TheSpaniard Thank you for the encouragement. I have been doing strength training but have avoided cardio. This is definitely motivation to get it going. Used to run track in highschool so I “know” how to run? But definitely need to get the heart and lungs in shape!
great video, just found ur channel and its a gem
Cadet here at the university of New Mexico. We have our ACFT tomorrow!!
Hooah!
Update: I passed it early this morning, it was my first time doing the ACFT!
30 y/o female here. Going to Prescreen hopefully soon. Already turned in all my paperwork for civilian to OCS.
That’s awesome! Best of luck!

All recruiters will handle enlisted and officers

Hi Alvin! How many minutes do I have to do this in a day?
