Oh boy. You're in for a facepalm extravaganza my friend...

Ditto on all counts. These next few weeks are going to be so impossibly nerve racking. Just had a thought; What's everyone planning if they don't get accepted? I'm heading directly to a reserve unit (in my case, the Fort Garry Horse) until I graduate and can apply for DEO or just do a transfer.

No fancy notepads in Winnipeg. Just a dozen pages of foolscap.

That's the first I've heard of this. My interview was in October as well and I wasn't told anything about a new system.

I don't really know anything about the trade so I'm no help there. As for the military life, theres a few things to keep in mind. 1. Family life becomes challenging 2. You can/will be sent all over the country and the world at a moments notice. 3. Obviously, the possibility of death or...

Technically it is possible. PROOF! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4KgEyKgJpnY&feature=related Not exactly an escalator but it is a proof of concept.

I have had similar experiences to yours. I have always chosen to be honest about my career aspirations. I've gotten a few funny looks and "...you don't seem like the type" responses but everyone has been more or less supportive. Whenever I do meet someone who feels strongly opposed to my...

Alright thanks guys that does answer my question. I'll be returning to the CFRC when school is back in session just to make sure that there haven't been any issues but everything sounds good so far.

I just spent the last hour searching the boards and my recruiting package looking for an answer and came up with diddly squat. All I need to know is whether or not the CFRC will contact me when I have successfully passed my medical. My medical was completed 6 weeks ago and I never heard back...

Same here. Stopped playing when I realized what was going on. Would hate for the game to become unbalanced just because of a silly bug. Not to mention how unfair it would be to all the other players.

Wow that is completely insane. I just recently started skiing again and couldn't possibly imagine doing more than 50km per day. Not to mention doing it for 20+ days straight.

On my father's saide the only service I know of was one of my relatives being a cavalry captain serving under Sir Donald Stewart in the late 1800's. I don't know much about his career other than having been involved in the Anglo-Afghan war. The rest of my father's family were all conscientious...

Wear whatever you feel is appropriate. Just remember that what you wear goes a long way towards giving the interviewer an indication as to your mindset and character.

so much win!

Wow I'm getting some epic nostalgia right now. Watched the entire series when it first came out. It's one of the main things that turned my attention towards serving!

Woah, looks like I just kicked a deceptively sizable hornet's nest  :P Thanks for the answers gents. Not exactly good news but at least I know where I stand now. All that's left is to sit and wait until April. :'(

Does anyone know how important the interview is towards acceptance into ROTP? The way I understand it, the interview, cfat and medical are for entrance to the CF as a whole and the ROTP questionnaire is for that specific program. Is this right? What I would really like to know is if the results...
