Seriously though all those schools are more mental then physical. If you are a committed person you can do it.
I only have lowly Ranger and Sapper school on my CV but I don't know if I can agree with that. There are parts that are classroom type mental but a lot of it is using sleep/food deprivation and physical fatigue to test your brains when they are at their lowest level of operation. I didn't see anyone wash out because they couldn't add 2 and 2 together and get 4 twice in the same normal day they washed out because they couldn't add 1 and 1 together after 36 hours of no sleep, constant humping, and constant harassment by both OPFOUR and instructors or they literally got to a point where they couldn't put one foot in front of the other. I am not counting acute injuries because they generally had the chance to recycle.

From what I understand, getting the Ranger tab is not the same as "being" a Ranger. I have heard Rangers explain it but I guess what they are trying to say is that people who serve in the Ranger regiments did a lot more than just getting the tab.

The instructors themselves would tell if you can’t handle it mentally you won’t be able to handle it physically. I guess take it up with them.
