I start basic July 21st

Awesome. He wrote from day one. I will read through it as I will be going soon. Thanks for the link

Good stuff! I was told last week they got word from Ottawa I'm officially in. Just waiting to be assigned to a "group." Not completely sure what that means, but I'll take it

I bought a book on the ASVAB test too. It did help a lot because the questions were quite a bit more difficult then the actual test. This is the one I bought http://www.amazon.ca/ASVAB-Basics-6-e-Arco/dp/0768915279/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1212930289&sr=8-15 They do have a newer edition...

I only wanted Infantry when I went to do my test. The only thing is, do you really want to just do one thing the rest of your life? Its easy now to say you do. Later down the road you may want to be a MedTech or something. So just do the best you can because I think you can only do the test...

They used to have a question to ask about that....how fast you can run x amount of km. They still kind of do. It will ask about physical activities you are involved in. They will ask you in the interview about these activities you do to keep in shape. It is assumed you already are in shape.

-UPDATE- Took a extra couple weeks because I had a small problem with my background check. They told me I got the job and I will hear in the next 5-7 days about everything else. Recruiting Center:  London, On Regular/Reserve:  Regular Officer/NCM:  NCM Trade Choice 1:  Infantry Trade Choice 2: ...

It went a little something like this: "Does this letter tell me that I have been rejected for some reason?  Most people who get their acceptance receive a phone call instead of the letter.  I am very nervous and have dedicated myself 200% to this for the last 8 months"

You seem to be talking like you have years and years of military service. Have you even been to BMQ yet? But you are also entitled to your own opinion and nobody here can change that.

This is by far one of the most ridiculous comments I have ever heard on this board. I hope you can rethink that post.

I used a ASVAB test study guide and a GED. They will have you over prepared and it cost me about $20 for the ASVAB guide.

Just remember $199 to you is like $20 to somebody else. I would not pay it, but I know some who would. Also, I think it is $119 and 25% off.

You could get laser eye surgery. Not sure if that would mess with your current job as a reserve. Might want to check

Wrote my CFAT yesterday and all I can say is I was so nervous because of all the stuff I read here haha It went well though. I qualified for a full page of stuff from cook to med to dentist. I'm not even going to say if it was easy or hard because that is just my opinion and will not help you...

Yes, I did ask to put it off for a bit. I could not make it in the next day. I was surprised how fast it went.

Handed in all my stuff today and they asked me to do the CFAT tomorrow. I will be doing it Tuesday instead.

Good thing we have some pretty good police officers.  Do you know if it was the OPP or RCMP?

So this is just some tips and stuff that has helped me to get in better shape. Any comments or anything are welcome CFAT Can't help you much here. Go to Amazon and get a up-to-date ASVAB study guide. I never saw one for the Canadian test on Amazon. You can pick it up for about $20. Math.com...
