academic credit for ROTC

[rotchik06]

Here's specific questions that you think the army already knows, but they dont! so,
1. does your school offer academic credit for ROTC/PT/Lab and how much? how many credits for each?
2. does your school use the books provided by the education and curriculum office? have you even seen these books?
3. are your instructors easy to learn from? do they offer ways to make ROTC interesting or do they just read from powerpoints?
4. How much time and when would you spend on LDAC prep during the MSL III year?
Thanks for your replies!!!

I shall be the first to answer, my curious little friend!

1)I believe it's somewhat dependent upon the actual school. Mine gives 1 credit per class for MS I's and II's. 2 credits per class for III's and IV's. No credit for lab/pt.

2) No. And no, I've never seen them. I use the books my MS instructors give me.

3) This is dependent upon the individual instructor. I've been lucky at my school, my cadre make the classes interesting. I'm sure others have had terrible experiences.

4) We start preparing for LDAC the first day of MSIII year.

Alright so I was going to remain anonymous but you all figured me out. My name is Cadet Amschler and I have an education internship in the education office of cadet command. I was being sneaky at first but now that you know who I am I hope this will prompt more replies. Thanks to those who already put in the great input! Oh and 3rdly I am from Eastern Kentucky University Go Colonel's Go!!! And to all the PR's out there we came we conquered last year but watch out for next year we're gonna be even better!

That answer your question about her?

Narc? Pentagon? ...Look, I swear to god she didn't tell me her age OR citizenship. I didn't tell her nothing, I mean it.

At my school, ROTC counts as an elective. We get 1 credit for class and 2 credits for lab. (I have been told that the school only accepts some of those credits, but my advisor told me on multiple occasions that all my ROTC credits count. So I'm a little confused on that subject.)
