Peace out?? :
I would not worry about performing well on the PT test when you get to Garrison St-Jean during Week 0 of BMQ and being torn apart for it. However, if you set the bar that high...you will get torn apart for regression at a later date. Do your best, simple. Always.
However, doing better than other people, and being arrogant about it, is a different story. I doubt your Crse Instr's will say "wow this guy is great!". They may say "this guy is in shape...one less thing for him to worry about...". It is the PT test during Week 0 of BMQ. Not the Ironman in Pet and you blew the record time by 55 minutes. Careful of the intention to 'blow everyone away' in PT and maintain that in everything. Teamwork, dedication to that team, loyalty, integrity, "leave no man behind", attention to detail, following orders and direction, etc are all other qualities that are AS if not MORE important in recruits and CF members. The best thing for you to do if you DO blow everyone away? Congratulate everyone else who passed...and don't rub their nose in your higher achievement.
