DeanWells and GtCrispy,
You're 100% correct about the test being the same. However, when I was thinking about testing out of Korean, I talked to my instructor about the DLI vocab list...well let me tell you...after looking at the vocab list for Korean, I'm surprised I can speak Korean at all. Out of the 1500 vocab words that they want you to know (most are sino korean and not spoken by younger generations), I know less than 20%. With that being said, even though I am a native speaker, my understanding of the language is at a 4th grade level. I can speak, read, write and understand Korean but not enough to carry on a intelligent and professional conversation with a Korean officer/NCO counterpart that I might have to deal with in the future. So I'm going to play it extra safe and learn whatever I can. Also, my fiance can't move to Ft. Lewis until after July because of work and school. So in the end, it worked out.

P.S. I received an email few days ago from 2nd BN/1st GRP S1 so at least I know which BN I'm headed to.
