Awesome! Nice to hear some acceptances coming out of Halifax.

Will we be doing a BFT or EXPRES test during the orientation at St. Jean? And thanks for all the succinct insight jwtg. Much appreciated. 

Hhahahahaa. Well somebody change the topic then. I'm tired of this.

Ok, then let me rephrase: The Captain who I spoke to at CFRC Ottawa said that the CFAT was important, and gave me justification to believe the same. He also urged me to re-do it, and I believe that my higher score was one of the factors that led to my acceptance to RMC. So if "good enough" on...

Well obviously you should take everything on this forum with a grain of salt. It's the internet. But the Capt. was quite experienced. When he was explaining why the CFAT carried so much weight, he put it like this, and KY-Ottawa was right on the money: when looking through all the peeps who...

I can't remember exactly, maybe 40-50% of the overall weight. I just know that it's an overwhelming proportion compared to the other components. It was the Capt. who did my interview that told me this. He realized that every part of my application was solid, but my CFAT score was average, so he...

I qualified the first time I wrote it too, but then this year my file manager gave me the opportunity to write it again and I blew my last score outta the water. It honestly makes your application so much more competitive. A large portion of the overall scoring is based on the CFAT so never...

There's nothing wrong with joining reserves of even going NCM in the reg force. I know we're all gung ho about being officers, but it's not like NCM's are anything less. Sure your pay grades are lower and you can't get into the officers mess, but you're the person who's actually getting shit...

She didn't say exactly, but I'd guess that's how many guys were merit listed. I wouldn't think guys who weren't listed would be counted as applicants since technically they didn't make it through the application. But who knows.

When I spoke with the Cpl. at my RC she said that over 1000 people had applied, and they sent out 40 offers. We are the 4%!

So the class yesterday was good news! Got my acceptance today! I ended up just walking into the RC to meet with the Cpl. who I was supposed to call. She was so nice. So yeah, accepted to RMC Kingston as a MARS Officer pursuing an Arts degree. Spent the last year here at uOttawa but screw it...

First off congratulations to everyone one their offers! But I've got a story to tell: So me and my cousin both applied to ROTP out of Ottawa, him for RMC and me for CiviU. This is my second time applying and I've been in the system for two years now. My cousin on the other hand basically made...

Damn straight! Well said.

These are gonna be my benchmarks. I plan to be able to surpass them by August.
