You have to be in your BMI range. They don't care if it's muscle or fat, if it's one pound above, they will fail you. I've seen it happen

They give you like a month to lose the weight i beleive

They give you the benefit of the doubt and give you 20% above your bmi. I had taken A picture of the chart with my cell phone when I was there but ever since I changed cell phones i lost all my pictures....

He was 1lb over the 20% the doc also comes in and takes a good look at you to see how your proportioned. If your fit then he knows of course muscles weighs more than fat so he will go by that as well

Oh, I didn't know that, then again in skinny, so I had no worries. Thank you for clearing that up,
after this somebody should gather all the informative posts and make them into one long sticky for everyone.

Has anyone from 3024 gotten the call yet for the class at the end of the month? Every time my phone goes off I jump hoping it is the call, but so far it has only been false alarms.

Are you from list 3024 or 4004?

I am from 3024. It sounds like they should be pulling all of 3024 and starting on 4004 for the class based on what I have heard. I've also been given the unofficial date of 7/28/14 for the start from a buddy on the job. Anyone hear anything different?

Yeah july will be the last #s of 3024 and a few low 4004 #s, October academy will have almost all 4004, I heard it might be pushed back a bit due to funding
