Brand new members who almost immediately start new threads tend to not be the sort of people we are looking for.

I agree with Pete. More searching and reading would teach you more than starting new threads and asking questions. I do not think that was a request, BTW.

As to the odds of completing the pipeline and graduating, your knowledge of firearms repair and a foreign language, and to some extent, even your physical fitness are less important than what is in your head and heart. Many PT studs leave SFAS every class, while less fit people manage to get selected. That theme is reflected in many posts on this site that you should search for and read before posting again.

Make sure that you also read "A Message to Garcia" during your research sabbatical.

As far as your grammar and spelling go, as stated, first impressions are lasting ones, and yours does not reflect someone who takes the time to get it right. Blue explained that already, do you not understand the instruction, or do you just not care?

Best of luck.
