18D and Arabic - I hope you enjoy a challenge and are prepared to embrace the suck of study, study, and more study when your friends want to go out. Get your mind wrapped around the concept and keep your focus on your end goal. The opportunity to party will come after you've completed your training and have orders to Group; wait for it.
For you 18D's - good luck and I'll pass on some words to us from MSG Bob Scully when he was our NCOIC at the lab:
"Grades don't mean s**t. You're either good enough or you aren't. I don't want any 80% medic working on me and I won't pass any 80% medic on to join a team. They're better than that and they deserve better than that. And if you can't decide whether or not you're good enough to be a team medic, don't worry about it - we're here to help you make the right decision."
