Of course it is a “brainwashing factory”. It is the military. They do the same thing in basic training. Do you think they get on you about how you fold your underwear or make your bed for the fun of it. It is all about breaking down mentally and rebuilding you to accept orders without hesitation. It’s definitely not for everyone. To me, it seems like it would be all the pressures of an elite college with 4 years of boot camp piled on. There is no shame in not making it through and if it wasn’t really what you wanted you are better off getting out now. Good luck!!!
