    hostility to CT

    Now I'm stepping out of my rhelm here, but CTs for ROTp and Pilot often take the priority because they have nofail deadlines (RMC must be full every year, no if ands or butts).

    Canadian Forces Aptitude Test (CFAT) [MERGED]

    I can understand why someone would want to know the minimum scores, but the only good it would serve you is to have a big sigh during the test when you thought you had enough right.  You need every point possible.  The CFAT score is big in calculating your overall score used for the Merit list. ...

    hostility to CT

    There exists no requirement to inform your PRes unit of any intent to CT.  While it is open and honest to inform them, this can often have a unfair and negative impact on the member. Consider you put in for a CT and inform your chain of command and you find yourself no longer getting taskings...

    Interview advice (merged)

    This is besides the point, but not everything is rated 1 out of 4.  Your overall score is what decides your place on the merit list.  A person whom gets a 70 will get picked before a person whom gets a 67.  Regardless of popular belief, which i have taken much criticism in the past for on here...
