Marc:
I would agree with Razor.
Being proficient at the APFT tasks, rope climbing, pull-ups, short to medium distance runs, and above all rucking cross-country are much more important to your overall potential success at SFAS than marathons, squats, or exotic exercises.
While some events have complementary lifts or exercises, there is no substitute for doing the actual events to standard, as many as you can, as fast as you can, to just short of failure.
There will be no cheerleaders or standards given at SFAS. You will hear, "Do the best that you can" a lot.
Good luck.

The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - President Theodore Roosevelt, 1910
