I'd just like to thank you for making my day. Simply HILARIOUS!!! Anyways, assuming that there is nothing seriously wrong with you (medical wise), you certainly wouldn't be the first person who has been screwed over due to something like this during the application process. You should also...

The problem with this is that some occupations may require a certain type of degree. If you want to be an engineer, then you can't join with a BA. The best  information that can be given to you would most likely be the classic talk to a recruiter response. Although it's unlikely, there could...

I can assure you that it will not change. Generally speaking, the only people that would already know that they have been accepted to a civvi school by time the ROTP board sits are those that have been offered early acceptances. People who haven't heard yet would therefore be automatically...

Combat engineers are one of the four trades that make up the combat arms. Even if they weren't classified as such, it still wouldn't change their role on the battlefield.

They "check" all of the grades on your transcripts, but really put an emphasis on your senior courses. It's really beyond me why you're still asking. People have been known to get in with 70s, and others have been turned down with 90s. As well, I already provided you with the average of those...

When you said "high school average," did you mean ALL of your courses (from grade 9 to grade 12) or did you mean your top six grade 12 courses? I'm just curious since having the later would normally rule out an applicant right off the bat. http://www.rmc.ca/adm/pp-mep-eng.asp

Don't worry. For some reason, there's a handful of reserve units that aren't listed on that site.

The average of all the applicants who were accepted last year or the year before (can't remember which one) was either 85% or just a little below that. However, like Alex10370 posted, marks are not the only deciding factor for an applicant.

I figured this might be of interest to some people. http://www.thewhig.com/2013/04/19/no-cuts-for-rmc-cfb-kingston-defence-chief

Sorry about that. Just saw your profile and realized that you joined as an NCM. What I mentioned above would be the case if you were going to be an officer. I'm far from certain about the process for soldiers.

First of all, are you referring to the application for the CF? If this is true and all you need is the "government's permission," don't expect this to be your ticket in. If it was that easy, everybody in your situation would be asking. The only circumstances that I have heard of where people...

You could probably crawl if you wanted to, as long as you're below the 11 minute mark. You might want to start training in this area if you haven't already, seeing that 2.4 km is not the minimum distance that you will be running during BMQ.

Shortly before you finish phase training, you will have the opportunity to choose your top three postings (of the nine infantry battalions). Typically, those that place higher than the rest throughout training have a better chance of getting their desired posting. To answer your second...

This is definitely one of those questions that can only be answered by CFRC staff. Not every recruiting centre will do it on the same day and the times aren't set in stone, so they will also differ from year to year.

If you're accepted into ROTP for nursing, they have to send you to civvy U since RMC doesn't offer the required education.

You can take all your classes in either French or English, and depending on your abilities, you will take second language classes.

It sounds like that recruiter might have been a tad... misinformed. Even if that were the case and someone was to ace the interview, CFAT, and all that good stuff, do you really think they would care how diverse your choices were. I know a handful of people who had an army, navy, and an air...

Just to add on to the previous replies, the person who is interviewing you does not decide who gets what job. They will give you a score based on how well your interview went, then that will be put into your file for the selection board.
