There's not a whole lot of specifics that anyone can say. But, I'll give you a few things I picked up through my process. CFAT - Don't sweat it too hard. It's not how well you do, it's how well you do compared to everyone else. What this means is that if the test is extremely difficult or you...

According to what I've read, first years are paired up with someone who's first language is the other official language. So, if you're english, you'll be bunking with someone who is good at french and vice versa.

Your training progresses as per usual as you are going to school. According to a Job Fact Sheet for Army people, you start with your Initial Assessment and Basic Officer Training. Then you go for CAP and then your trade training. On a "normal" ROTP applicant, this training coincides with the...

I forget the exact dates for the selection rounds(you can ask them, they do have the information), but the selection board is mid-Janurary and 1st round of selections is in February. I think there are 3 rounds of selection scheduled as well(if I do recall, which I might not ::)) which pertains...

I submitted everything September 19. They called me on October 8(19 days after I handed everything in when I travelled to the CFRC) and told me my CFAT, medical and interview were all on October 21(32 days after I handed everything in when I travelled to the CFRC). So, it took just over a month...

Update: Today I had my medical forms filled out and mailed them to the CFRC. It's great that the application process is over, but now I wait to see if everything is in order and if so, I'll wait anxiously for February  :-X

Update: Today I recieved my subsidization check for my trip to the CFRC. Pretty good timing... Only 13 days.

Yes. Just that any activities involving the Reserves should take precedence over any Cadet activities. Infact, a Cadet from my corps(C/Sgt.) is enrolled in the reserves, but still parades at the corps. She usually can't make it to the expeditions and for anything formal(like a mess dinner) she...

Update: I severely sprained my ankle yesterday(hurray). However, I have a doctors appointment on November 6th to get my medical paper filled out by my family doctor. So, I'll be walking by then, and I'll have my papers filled out  ;D Win win situation  ;)

Alrighty... I had my CFAT, Medical, and Interview today. Everything went relatively well. Filled out the survey and the Drug Questionnaire when they got us all together. I was the only ROTP applicant there in a group of 8. After that we all did the CFAT. I feel I did okay on the verbal and...

I filled out the MOSID on my ROTP Questionnaire, and they didn't say anything against it.

Just got a call from CFRC/D Corner Brook. My CFAT, Medical, and Interview is on Tuesday, October 21. I have to be there 0800. It's a 2 hour drive(so, 0500 wake up, 0545 leave). They did offer a hotel for Monday night, but I had to decline. The instructions I was given are: "...wear a...

Well, you can put 3 university choices. I put 1(RMC). However, for the essay, you write it about your #1 choice. whatever it might be. By the way, when the acceptences start coming out and we know who is going where and such, maybe we should all get to know something about each other so...

Well, my references know me pretty well, so I really didn't need to give them anything besides tell them I wanted to be an officer, my trade choices, and my insitution of choice. However, I would recommend it(each of references has know me for over 5 years... Basically a huge part of my life).

I think everything has to be done(CFAT, Medical, Interview, etc...) for the selection board in mid-January. So, IMHO, the earlier the better.

Hehe. Well, 2 hours from my house. I left from school, so 1 hour and 40 mins to the Corner Brook and 2 back. But, as I said, I was going to go to Corner Brook anyways. The next step in my process is to have all of my cadet course reports faxed to the CRFC. I need my course and staff ones, for...

Well, I went into CFRC/D Corner Brook today. I brought everything with me. Here's how it went down: I went to the CIBC building. I took the elevator to the second floor and turned right to go down the hallway. I walked in and headed to the main desk. A PO1 came out of one of the back offices...

Well, it really isn't just a CFRC trip... It's a day in CB with my friends. So, I figured I'd give the application in person and ask the questions I need answering in person(doesn't really work over the phone, the place is "closed" when I get home each day, and I'm not home when they call back)...

Well, I am heading down that way on Friday @ 1000, expecting to arrive at the CFRC @1200. I will weigh out the pros and cons for my choice by Friday.   I am interested in your experience, though due to the distance issues(Corner Brook is 2 hours away) and my tight schedule(I have to skip school...

I live at one of the most western points of NL... The Port-Aux-Port Peninsula.
