If you've put in the work to get yourself ready for selection, then you should be able to gut through the pain. Everybody's hurting during selection. Clearing the O course or carrying your weight in addition to moving "contraptions" isn't supposed to feel good. Hopefully, you've grown from your last experience, and IF, you're able to re-attend you won't quit on yourself. However, based on your SFAS history so far...

Good Luck

Sound advice, but before you jump in on these threads, you should probably follow the instructions to get vetted here.
