don't understand what part of "entry standards" people aren't getting. It's the only time in their military career that it's that low. It's just to see if you are in the bare minimum shape to even begin training. And even later on, with the full regular test, anyone that thinks you're just going to cruise along forever on a bare minimum score doesn't know much about the military.

Don't worry. I have been here since the beginning of this site, and I can tell you that 1/3 of the members of Tigerdroppings would fail a basic reading comprehension test, not to mention they would fail the minimum entry standards for the USMC.
