I saw in the admissible that there was a 150 yd swim test administered at CBT. Are the times for each separate level known?
 
If I'm not mistaken, it varies depending on how the rest of your peers perform. Its based off a distribution curve.
 
Sub 2:20 basically guarantees you Grad Week Swim at the end of your second semester plebe year. Grad Week Swim is a semester of swim tests crammed into one week. Really good option if you are on the swim team or are an incredible swimmer. I swam for 8 years but decided not to do grad week and instead opt for the mentorship program. The reason for this is that they no longer are allowing cadets to retake Survival Swim if they are not pleased with their grad week grade. I'd rather take it during the AY and get a better grade than in 1 week with a C+ or B-. (Plebe year PE grades are super important and will basically decide whether you go to an Advanced MIAD or not and whether you get ABN over AASLT.)

Alright thank you, what is the mentorship program?
