Question by Brandi Whipple: I want to join The United States Marine Corps and hopefully go through OCS. How should I prepare?
I’m a Female, 15, a Sophomore in high school, right now my academics aren’t very good, and I’m not very good at Physical fitness. I’m good with push-ups and sit-ups, but not pull-ups and running. If you could give me some tips, especially Marines, I would really appreciate it.
Well I was kinda hoping to got to MIT. I know that they do the program because I’ve looked it up, but sadly my academics aren’t doing very well.

Sit down with someone from your school’s guidance office.

Find a college, or university that offers a NROTC program and get accepted. Then all you have to do is graduate.
