How many re weigh ins did you get?

sorry man just saw this, i got 2 reweighs they give you 30 days to lose the weight after the initial medical, then if you dont make that you have to appeal your weight, then they give you 1 more chance, its such a pain in the balls. i finally got the call on 12th ill be in the academy starting monday. It doesnt matter how muscular you are they dont care they just look at #s, Im 5'8 205 , go to the gym every day and im a life time hockey player, I can say im pretty in shape... I was 210, and i was still to heavy. if you are 5'8 and shorter then want you to be around 198.

Does anyone know if they've reached 5003?
If so, what # are they on (approximately)?

They did reach 5003 I believe. I think someone on here who was on 5003 and was in the 30s was contacted. Don't know how much further than that they got.

I dont think they made it over 40 on list 5003. Hopefully they have a December academy and get up to ~250!

Yeah you will probably be in next september or April if you are lucky

During the physical, the investigator who spoke to the whole auditorium said that most of us will be in by Feb. 2016. Maybe there is a chance?

I hope he was right but that doesnt make much sense if you look at the numbers... I will break it down assuming next academy is not until January/Feb:

September 2015: Up to 5003 List #40
January/Feb 2016: ~ #'s 40 - 250
April 2016: ~#'s 250 - 450
August/Sept 2016: ~450 - 700
