[@jchang.y]

Great Video, taking AFROTC in Fall 2023, Thank You!

[@faithapowers]

Thank you and good luck!

[@edwinwangui9482]

This video was beneficial. I leave for max 3, this Saturday. Some things have changed. This year's class will not receive an FTM until we get to field training, and instead of OCPs in a personal bag, this year they are having us put a pair of PTGs and toiletries

[@faithapowers]

FT is continuously changing, thank you for the update! Keep studying and enjoying your summer. Good luck!!

What, if anything, do people fail at field training?

[@faithapowers]

I honestly can't think of what people FAIL at completely. But I think the categories people tend to do poorly on is the PFA and FTO interview. I don't want to say scenarios bc some scenarios were truly terrible.

[@malloryblackstar5388]

What is the typical daily schedule on field training?

[@faithapowers]

Hi! Unfortunately no one is really allowed to disclose the specifics of Field Training. They want every cadet to get the full effect so the only thing I can say is, you will get up VERY early and have long days filled with PT, drill, classes, and evaluations.

How was the situation for doing your hair? Did you have time to dry it after showers? Was there time to braid it?

[@faithapowers]

okay so for hair, yes and no. We did have time to braid and do our hair BUT not really much time for it to dry. In my opinion, there wasn't much time to realllyy wash your hair, especially if it's curly. After showering, you're usually rushing to put on your uniform so drying is a hit or miss. But in the mornings, we had a braiding train going on lol. I recommend a braid of some sort for all hair types

How did you study for the AFOQT?

[@faithapowers]

I actually have a KZbin video on how I studied for the AFOQT! I struggled with the AFOQT myself so I talk about everything I did to pass it. I hope it helps.

[@xozellet5412]

For the duffel bag is there anyway that we are supposed to put our OCPs in there or a way to put everything to fit in there?

[@faithapowers]

It’s like playing jenga lol! If I can remember correctly, I put my heavy gear at the bottom and toiletries and ocps more at the top. And hangers on the sides. I kinda made a block like shape so it was easy to carry and hold

[@xozellet5412]

@@faithapowers Thank you so much! I am going to field training soon and I have a little more questions. Is there anyway I can ask you them individually?

5 in 1 irish spring for 6.99 13:00

[@jayway8427]

so did you pick your AFSC and found out your duty location before shipping to FT?

[@braydonking6596]

negative. It all happens after

[@faithapowers]

You do all of that AFTER field training ☺️ you go to field training, you come back and sign a contract that says you’ll finish the program and become an officer. Junior year, you’ll make your dream AFSC list. They’ll tell you what job you get. Then your senior year, you’ll make your dream base list, and they’ll let you know!

[@KimaaKimaa]

Where my Max 2 at? 😮‍💨

[@dantereimann8440]

See you in 2 days

[@edgarardon4092]

Is field training required for prior service army ?

[@faithapowers]

Yes ma'am. For Air Force ROTC, all cadets must pass and graduate Field Training, even prior enlisted cadets.

[@meganding7812]

omg girl my materials for field training were like $300 ugh

[@faithapowers]

Omg yes, same. I was not ready to drop that kind of money!
