<p>Since I started the thread of <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/air-force-academy-colorado-springs/609828-realism-candidates.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/air-force-academy-colorado-springs/609828-realism-candidates.html</a>, I amm glad that many cadets are being honest about the lifestyle. </p>
<p>I agree with Raimius about the documentary. When DS was applying Bullet and I were very strict. We made him eat dinner at attention, 7" from the table, chewing 7 bites and never looking down at his plate or pouring a drink. We made sure that before he went to school every morning his bed was made(he quickly learned the trick of sleeping on his bed.) Made hime do PT besides going to his lifeguard job and calling lights out.</p>
<p>I started that thread so candidates have a realistic look at what the next 4 yrs will be like. I linked what history majors classes will be like. If you missed it, here it is again…main pt even in a non-math degree you will be taking courses that are math/science oriented

<p>Nobody wants to see you give up the dream, and we will all will be rooting for you when you are there. However, it is important that you see the bad with the good. </p>
<p>It is important to realize that if you are in it for 150% than you will be fine, if you are in it for a free education, it might not be the right fit for you.</p>
<p>GOOD LUCK…AIM HIGH…ABOVE ALL</p>
