Hi guys! I just signed up and I am looking for some answers. I think some of them have been answered already but please take the time. By the way, most desired trades would be: 1.Pilot 2. Air Traffic Cont. 3. Military Intel.
1. acceptance conditions
I've heard from a guy who went to the RMC that just last year, about 1700 signed up and only 153 or so was accepted. That's below 10%!! Is it true? I know that it is a lot more competitive now, so what would an ideal candidate be? For instance, what would their average be and what kind of skills would they have?
2. Physical condition
Self explanatory, how fit would I have to be? I'm a good runner but my push up are a bit weak.
Got 10.7 or so on the beep test (highschool standards) and I can do about 25 push ups with 90% arms and moderate pace.
3. Myself as a candidate
I am currently a grade 11 in BC .
In grade 10, my average was approximately 86%.
This year, my estimated 1st term grades would be:
Physics 11: 82-84%
Socials 11: 92%
Work Exp: 95% +
English 11: 90% +
Which rounds up to be about 89-90%.
Skills: Played drums for 2-3 years.
Proficient in Korean and English
Going to Glider pilot course this summer
LSI lifeguard certificate
level 4 in Kendo
Extra-Curriculars: Air Cadets
Rotary Interact club
Model UN club
Kendo and Swimming
Experiences: Instructional Tutoring VICSS
Senior home
Paper Route
Sportscheck
Awards: School-Wide geography challenge (3rd place)
Minor Leadership Award
Working on Duke of Ed Silver Award
And about 100 hours of Volunteer hours.
Am I a solid candidate? What more would you suggest I do? Is 100 hours of volunteering enough or should I be aiming for more? Judging from this, what are my strengths and what are my weaknesses?
Thanks in advance, I look forward to helpful advices.
