gents, ladies,

if you've been a grader (badge protector...ahem), would you care to shed some insight/stories etc. on what/how one fails other than the obvious mistakes/deviations from the reference? Likewise if you've earned one.

I'd like to gain some lesson-learned from others. I get it that depending on who's running it, it may be a whole lot different from place to place, person to person.

I already got all the resources from AKO, test practice books, and previous attendees in my unit. I also plan to dry-rehearse and mental-rehearse the 3 lanes just like in shooting match stages. Finally, just working out with emphasis on lifting and various carrying/dragging, night land nav practice, and of course, 12 mile rucking.
