Can you Gentlemen even comment on what goes on in SOPC? Or the training regiment that takes place during that course?


TOCrat,

Just a thought but maybe there is a very good reason why you are not able to find the answer you are looking for.

Just an outsiders perspective.

Since you asked politely, no we are not going to give the store away.

I would prep for SOPC the same way I would prep for SFAS, since that it what it is designed to accomplish.

Plenty of advice on SFAS prep and I would read the recruiter's handouts carefully, including the prep book.

Best prep is to get off your ass and run, ruck, and PT. Next would be to get your mind (and attitude) right.

If you report in in good condition, focused, alert, dedicated and willing to learn, we will teach you everything you need to know. Our job is also to see if you are deficient in any of those areas, as well as a few more.

If you cannot pass SOPC, you are almost certainly not ready for SFAS.

HTH.
