Do a Google search. There are several Army forums that will answer this question for you. Or better yet, call your local recruiter and get the scoop.

I agree. That's pretty much what I recommended except I would also throw in the press. Press is really going to bulk up your shoulders much more than bench. However, to your credit, even without press your exercises below are still better than 99% of what people are doing in the gym. =)

If he did bench, row, press and squats, he hit all of his body. A few other exercises I would throw in would be: Pullups, Bar Dips and Deadlifts. With those 7 exercises, you are hitting EVERYTHING. No curls necessary.

What about squats and deadlifts? Those are the two best muscle builders there are period.

Right on Bro! I have been doing a mix of Crossfit and Mark Ripptoes Starting Strength workout. All about the compound lifts and heavy weight.

Excellent point. Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback everyone!

I just ordered one thanks!! I threw one fo those coloring books to get free shipping too HOW FUN! =) http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0805350861/ref=ord_cart_shr?_encoding=UTF8&m=ATVPDKIKX0DER&v=glance

Seems they have a Graphic Designer position open. Hmm... I could apply for that and take Nursing classes at night? Yes, No?? Worth looking into I suppose.

I took them 18 years ago. WOW. Just typing that makes me feel old. =)

I took these two classes 18 years ago as a young freshman and got C's in them both. I just wanted to get opinions on whether I should repeat them? 1) to improve the C grade. 2) to get a refresher, especially for the Math class. I don't know how much algebra type math there is in higher level Nursing classes. Thanks for your feedback!

I did find out that there are in person classes offered at the Military base across town, so I have that option. Kind of a bummer though because I only live 2 blocks from the main campus. Those of you coming back for a second degree, do you recommend retaking classes (like English 101, Chemistry 101 or College Algebra for example) that you got a 'C' during your previous degree?

Yeah, I love the OPTION of being able to take online classes also but since this is a University in the middle of a medium sized city, I shouldn't be FORCED to take online classes. It's not a deal breaker. I was just really surprised when I found out. Especially with a class as intense as A&P. What this means is that I will probably end up taken them from a community college which is a fraction of the cost. So keeping the glass half full, it just makes my decision easier to take the online classes from the comm college. =) I also have to take a Communications 101 class and I will probably take English 101 over (to get gpa up as high as possible) since I got a C in it years and years ago as an 19yr old freshman. I think these two classes would be good candidates to take at the same time online, to test the waters (of online classes). Alright...sorry for rambling.

The local university where I live offers A&P online only! Can you believe that? They don't even offer it on campus. So now I am forced to have to drive a long distance to take a class in person. Has anyone else ran into this obstacle?

Great! Thank you very much and have fun at orientation. =) Did you take your pre-reqs 1 at a time or how many did you take at a time? I have to work fulltime until I start so I'm trying to decide on how many I could take and still pull A's. Thanks again for the list! I will print it out tomorrow and get started. =)
