This program helps people become better human beings, probably even better than the people who were already fit or books smart. You all need to stop putting the army down for doing this great program. I think it's a great way to create stronger men and women in the society. Which will then create future soldiers while these new young adults learn it'll be passed down to there future kids because nobody wants to have there kids be like how they were before the new and improved and confident boosted self.
Went through the program, was helpful to prepare for boot camp. However you will be at jackson longer than you need to.
How’d everything go?
Was your ig or FB I need to ask some questions.
Wait do you stay there?
Hey! I'm enlisting, going through 09M first. How's the ASVAB/education track? Do they actually have teachers there educating soldiers, or do you figure it all out on your own?
@@rhyagellethe drill sgts do the teaching
At least they take an interest in helping people that want to join including me
They literally took script from the 1994 Danny DeVito film Renaissance Man and made it into real life. if you've never seen this movie it's about some recruits that are not smart enough and they have to go to school while in training to get more education. Literally exactly what this program is.
They don't perfom any PT exams at MEPS. I was denied entry about 2 months ago because my body fat percentage was not within standards. I trained and lost weight with the support of my recruiter. Last Monday when I went to MEPS I asked to do my height and weight again. Guess what? They didn't even check and just sent me to the counsler to sign my contract. Now I'm leaving this month to Fort Jackson to do the fat camp.
Hey man how did it go for you? I’m talking with recruiters right now and I’m thinking about trying to do the same thing so I can join. What’s your insight on how it went for you
@@alexanderthegreat7258 finished it. Was great I had fun getting paid to lose weight. There's good people there who are going through the same thing man just don't let numbers affect your progress is all I can say. Currently half way through BTC happy I went to FSPC because I definitely would've had trouble during red phase. You get access to nutrienists and meet a bunch of lieutenants teaching classes every other day. I think they're moving the program from the FTC building to a new one.
@@alexanderthegreat7258 also the program is only 4 weeks long so if you don't make the tape in that time you join another platoon in week 2. Still would advise going even though it's 90 days long. ( majority of people tape out by the first 25 days)
@@dinkywb that’s good to hear and I’m right on the edge of that 6% max but it’s enough. Going to be taking my asvab soon to start the process. Did they let y’all have phones or did you have to write letters to talk to loved ones. Also I really appreciate you responding bro. I definitely am feeling more confident and gonna go through with it
Same i would like more info too. Im leaving in 10 days for fat camp. Do you get phones? How often are you in classes and working out for? I was told it was 90 days but you say you can get out early if you lose the weight before the 90 days? Im at the 6% body fat max like alexander here
Just set up military-run high schools for struggling students.
- Such could encourage discipline without being BCT environments.
- Employ much better teaching methods, such as having one full class every month or two instead of 5-6 classes every day.
- Have access to subject matter experts of various technical trades.
- For anyone looking to join the Army they can be enrolled in a course to teach what new Soldiers in BCT aren’t taught: Army organizational bureaucracy.
Yea but how much money would that cost
@@rayray42069 they could be public schools for people interested in joining the enlisted ranks
@@gdaman3700 I think they meant how much would it cost for the military/government to create and implement that, not the cost to students.
Otherwise, it seems like a good idea.
Army? Lol its literally trash, I mean like, americans are literally fat, like what are they gonna do eat burgers in the trenches? Getting your hands and food dirty.
Some states have what is called the youth challenge program. It’s run by the National Guard, free and totally voluntary.
Just look up Youth Challenge Program also Youth Challenge Academy.

OFFICIAL CONGRATULATIONS!!! #usarmy #Diplomacy
First, HAVE REAL DOCTORS at THE MEPS , not just people with charts. Also have psychological testing at MEPS!
Amazing 👏🏻
They do all this yet we can’t get beards lol
How do I attend the program? What are the requirements and qualifications for the Future Soldier Preparatory Course in the Army? I want to improve my ASVAB Test Score.
At least get a 21-30 on the ASVAB if of course you make 31 or higher you don’t need to attend the program however you can volunteer to take the program if you make a 40 or higher to help both track one and track 2 to help future soldiers succeed. I got a 25 and I leave for the program this month on the 20th and I’m proud and glad to see ware my future takes me 😁
I got a 25 as well I’m leaving in 20 days I’m so ready
What are the eligibility for not meeting weight standards? I'm within the 6% threshold but who do I speak to about going? My recruiter or Army Counselor at MEPS?
@@freshair3857please tell me how you joined up i’m so interested
@@jorgeloza731im wondering the same thing. might just talk to my recruiter
Hats off
Army? Lol its literally trash, I mean like, americans are literally fat, like what are they gonna do eat burgers in the trenches? Getting your hands and food dirty.
How many times can the ASVAB be taken under this program
Within the 90 days will the ASVAB be taken more than once?
Total is 4 so you got like 84 days
So every 3 weeks you could take your asvab exam
Do you get paid ?
I leave sometime this month for the academic half. Does anyone know if you’re allowed to have phones? How long are the classes everyday? And what is a a typical day like?
No phones, 12 hour long day classes every day
Do they drug test you ?
@@messiahclinkscales5667 you will get drug tested before you leave…rem weed stays in your system for 30 days..if you smoke it’s best to just stop it and find a alternative because that will disqualify you if you’re about to ship out
@@lyriccourtney2710 before you leave fort Jackson like the last week or soon as i get there ?
@@messiahclinkscales5667 before you get there…you should get drug tested at MEPS before u even swear in then u will before u leave
Do you get paid while in this program?
Yes
USA ♡
Army? Lol its literally trash, I mean like, americans are literally fat, like what are they gonna do eat burgers in the trenches? Getting your hands and food dirty.
From what I am hearing they are only offering combat arms, Infantry and artillery jobs.. Pretty much jobs nobody wants.. A friend went in this program and was told once his score was high enough he would be able to go 15u mos.. once there the story changed..
Imagine joining the army as a young able bodied male and not wanting to go into a combat/infantry job lmao. It’s like going to McDonald’s and ordering a salad with a Coca Cola on the side.
3 months it’s long shot but anyway. I heard that if you score higher than 50 you get to choose your MOS. Not sure but I only want Infantry no matter what I score don’t care if it is 99.
I ship out for this program October 31st
Me too!
@@madisonicolenicole6347 that’s awesome!
Hey man i’m going soon, If im in standard weight soon arrival will i still have to go or can i ship straight to basic?
Did you pass
How is it
So a summer camp
Army? Lol its literally trash, I mean like, americans are literally fat, like what are they gonna do eat burgers in the trenches? Getting your hands and food dirty.
How much do you get paid at this program while you doing it??
The same as any other recruit, because that's what you are.
How do you sign up?
Ask a local recruiter
Meaning if these two girls get what I deserve except the harsh stuff and they is in command yeah

How do I apply for this Job???
Its not a job its a program if u're too dumb to pass the ASVAB and got 21-31 AFQT
Yall never contacted me back so I never bothered
Usually a reason why they don't contact you back, Soo yeah. Maybe try contacting them again or a different location.
Go AirForce 😋
@@IIOctaneII 😂😂😂 Get outta here chair force
@@ISO-420 I mean, I'm going Army but Air Force does have the best quality of life, including usually better food. Plus, for those who would need to do this extra course to train for training anyway, Air Force or Navy is easier physical training and maybe they suit the Chair Force lol
Did you go to a local recruiter? If you did it online like I started with, it gets weird and iffy. Then they just send a bunch of emails promoting why you should join. But I had immediately better luck and quick initial testing once I visited my local recruiting center and spoke to someone in person.
Btw persistence and initiative are valuable traits to the military, if for nothing else but perception.
Physical and Educational barriers? Bro if you cant meet the already pathetic standards just dont join.
@Cookie Monster, Dark Apostle of the Word Bearers. absolutely they have. They don’t even do the shark attack anymore because it might hurt their little feelings. It has become an utter joke.
I love it when generals invent new and ridiculous ideas that’ll do absolutely nothing.

Lol its literally trash, I mean like, americans are literally fat, like what are they gonna do eat burgers in the trenches? Getting your hands and food dirty.
They're the 2 highest rate of DQs, and the only 2 you can actually fix. It'd be pretty fuckin dumb to not try to help the people who are looking to join. Away from mommy's cooking, and away from the Xbox. The only thing you can actually do there, is participate towards your goals.
Do you get uniform or do we take our own jeans and clothes?
What happens if you fail while in this course?
You either get kicked out or they may allow you to stay in the military. Depends if you showed you tried, and were a good recruit during those 90 days. If you proved that your an asset to the army they may keep you in rather than kick you out. So don’t talk back or be a lazy slob.
You get kicked from the service. My recruiter told me about it. It's basically a chance to earn your way in (and you do get paid while training/learning), but you are not able to serve if you can't even pass this since they're training you to pass minimum standards.

If you finish the program and they dont have the mos you want available, do you still get forced into basic training as the initial mos?
You get separated
@@kasova2495what does that mean
@@gustavoarteaga4027 Since you didnt choose a MOS, you techinically completed your 90 day contract. You would just be sent home on a ELS discharge. You need a MOS to go to basic
@@kasova2495 is there any chance to get another try ? I want to try to get a rasp contract
@@gustavoarteaga4027 You can try to ask for that when u choose ur mos at the program, or go home and try to re-enlist under that again
When my dad heard the army was allowing overweight people to join he got angry and said
“God damnit, I know I ain’t served in Vietnam, but I sure as hell know that they are getting softer than ever nowadays.”
Sounds like a generic elder response. The world war 2 dads were saying the same about your dad. Just like the world war 1 dads were saying the world war 2 kids were lazy, till WW2. Every generation has said the same thing and we always aren't always as bad. Just different. There's a little perspective for you my young Padawan
We may be fatter but we’re sure a hell of a lot smarter
Educate yourself and your dumbass of a father before speaking.
I got few questions. Are you allowed to use your phones and do you rest on weekends?
So quick question, since the LGBTQSEABCD community can “identify” as a different sex can I identify as younger and healthy so I can join the military? Does it work that way yet? Or if I start to “identify” as a man can I join? 🤔🤔🤔🫡🧔♀️ Also can I “identify” as fully vaccinated?
Thought that was AC in the thumbnail.

So glad that I'm retired . Soon they'll have a bed and breakfast program 87-09
Sounds good to me
You should see the way they are coddled in BCT. They got rid of the shark attack so they don’t hurt their whittle feelings 🙄🙄
@@alang4033 do they get hugs on arriving
@@ernestpaniagua1210 they get 30 minute phone calls every Sunday. Too much free time to write letters. They wear their PT’s CONSTANTLY. Corrective training is no more than 5 repetitions of a single exercise. I could keep going but Jesus Christ so much has changed since I went to BCT and that was literally only 8 years ago. Oh and it’s called “corrective training” now. You can’t use the word smoked.
@@alang4033 not surprised I remember getting smoked and called everything but my name 😂 in fact today is 35 years ago .
What about options for OCS candidates?
Army? Lol its literally trash, I mean like, americans are literally fat, like what are they gonna do eat burgers in the trenches? Getting your hands and food dirty.
Do you tell them how the Army loses vital records? Do you tell them to get triple copies of all their records, especially medical records, and to put all copies in a separate and safe place? Do you also tell them to get an LOD “LINE Of Duty” done on every injury they incur while in service? Tell them these things will help them in the future. Don’t just tell them things that will help them while Uncle Sam sucks the best years from them.
Cry some more.

In 1914 usa joined the allies defending the antifacsist of europe against the axis. Crushing the catholic dictatorships of musilini and franco. The usa solider is still fighting to defend the Afghans and other people's to give the woman and lgbtq freedom and democracy! Glory usa!
If you're a rural white boy watching this and can resist the urge to enlist, you've successfully helped to ensure you will pass on your white european genes to future generations.

So not only are they coddled in the new BCT standards but now we get to coddle them 90 days prior as well? These new privates are already low quality as it is I can’t wait for this to do absolutely nothing. I love when generals who think they know everything get involved and invent new crap.

It's been incredibly successful, so successful in fact, they have increased the places that do the training. 95% success rate across both tracks. Sounds like you're just a bitter moron.
