Exactly, which is why they'll play it up as if it's some kind of huge achievement when a woman gets into BUDS, but after that the story is going to be about "Maybe Next Time" since she rang out. Remember they will voluntarily be leaving. Wasn't the Navy's fault. All they had to do was keep going. Right?

Difference between being a Ranger and competing Ranger school.....

Somewhat related to the thread,

The Navy has identified 7 sports whose participants have shown to have the most success in completing SEAL training,

LINK

"In 2010, the Navy identified seven sports that breed athletes who have the highest rate of becoming a SEAL, water polo, swimming, triathlons, lacrosse, boxing, rugby, and wrestling. Of that group, water polo players had the highest odds of making through SEAL training, odds that doubled if they played the sport in college."
