BUMP I could use some advice on how to make it through the MSA course 2,2,1+. I'm in Unit 5 now and I seem to be regressing. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

My main issue is I'm terrible at listening. I usually get anywhere from a C to B, but a lot of it is guessing, not ability. I'm worse than my grades indicate I'm pretty sure. What would be a practical way to improve my listening?

My classmates aren't bad people but goddamn can I not focus in class. There's just so much noise and disruption. Non-stop retarded questions and banter going on. Holy gently caress. Seriously thinking about asking to change sections. At least then I can have some peace and quiet before I rock out.

Yeah...I'm also section leader and have been told privately by the teachers to keep my classroom in line on more than one occasion. I try to do it gently but it's not easy. I wouldn't give a poo poo if it weren't affecting my ability to learn in class but it's become a problem. I hate going to class now. I may just have to start telling these guys to shut the gently caress up. popejackson fucked around with this message at 03:14 on Aug 22, 2013 |

I lost it today and snapped on one of my class mates. He really didn't deserve it, I just have a lot of stress. Thanks for the advice. Keep it coming.

I care more about the elimination of the battle buddy rule on post. But yeah, alcohol is a nice bonus.

Anyone have tips on how to quickly improve on numbers drills? I have a test in 2 days and I really suck.

Figured I should ask the Army folks in here: Anyone have information on submitting an airborne school packet as 35p? Like how long it takes to process and what the requirements are? I graduate in July, pretty much I want to know is there any point in me trying to do this?

For those who have taken the ICPT 301 and 302 in Arabic...do you feel these tests are an accurate predictor of performance on the DLPT? Some teacher told me in the past that the 301 is most similar to the DLPT, which I hope is true because I just got my grades today and they were decent.

Holy poo poo...when you're on passage 4 and second guessing your answers, its not a good start. I'm taking MSA. For anyone who might know: is it true that Army linguists assigned to Fort Gordon don't deploy? If true that's a real bummer. popejackson fucked around with this message at 02:11 on Apr 9, 2014 |

California University (of Pennsylvania?!) is offering a B.A. in Arabic through online classes. After DLI credits transfer over its 30 more credit hours (or $7500 bucks). For someone with a degree already it doesn't seem worth it. For those without one it's not a bad deal, especially if you can get tuition assistance.
