Definitely always have a plan B; that is the reason most Ocdt's. go to civilian university since you gives you the opportunity to broaden your horizons with the life of a "normal" college student and still receive military training. On that note, if you think that just applying is stress image...
Extra-Curriculars are really important; especially if you're older.. Team-based / orientated clubs some community service. I do not know if you would end up going to RMC St. Jean for a prep year for you to become realigned with the "University education / Book Learning".
Not during BMOQ; during BMOQ-L they have started in G-town too funnel infantry candidates through in pure INF O Serials. From what I heard, it is only on average 10% physically more strenuous then other BMOQ-L. However, there was more "hands on learning" and a lot more bumps, pull-pulls and...
There was a young lady on another platoon a few years back that I knew, who weighed about 120 pounds but could ****ing ruck like there was no other. The more weight we piled on her, ( Ammo, water, a sandpack) the harder she went. Most of the guys had dropped out after 15km with about FFO (Flak...
For all those who are going infantry or want to be infantry; prepare for some pretty rigorous PT. Long-ruck marching, long distance running and a lot of bodyweight pyrometric workouts, (Push-ups, pull-ups and Up downs and planks.). Most of the lads on my TPs could crush a run 5k in 19 minutes...

BMOQ is 15 weeks... Well actually its 15 weeks and a few days.. Also know a few people who started it early (Warrior Fitness).. They had a 17 week course.

Sgt. "O.Cdt Bloggins, What is the role of the armoured?"
Officer Cadet. "To protect the sanctity and chastity of Infantry, Sergeant?!?"
Sgt. "By, God.. I think we have our next CLS!!."
YOU BRING YOUR KNEE THIS HIGH OFFICER CADET !!!!! FROM THE TOP.... I'M A BARBIE GIRL IN THE BARBIE WORLD!!
(While doing drill movements, in front of the platoon... Singing the song)
See you in Halifax alejo, I take it you'll be grouping up with the boys rolling out for CAP?
Also, regarding instructors wanting to kill "young little cute Officer Cadets", could not be more true ;D. I remember one specific Warrant tearing me a new one every time she spotted me. In the words...
