Recruits may take and pass end of block exams for each block of instruction in the academy with a minimum score of 80%. Yes, you read that correctly, 80% is the minimum score. If you get a 79% on any exam, you fail that block. That means that you have to pass with a “B” average while you are in the academy.
It is not as bad as it sounds. If you put your mind to it, and take time out to study the material each day, and listen to the instructors, use the resources available to you then you will do just fine. However, it is not a walk in the park either. You should be able to at least read and write basic english and detail on paper your recollection of specific events. It’s called report writing.
