Hey guys,

So far I'm still on track to hit comp school in late sept. in Memphis (MIR).

Any vets out there willing to lend a friendly tip or two about comp school, or anything that might be of help to me?

Don't try to be super racey, but don't be so timid that people are worried you aren't ready yet. Basically, no dicey passes. Body contact will usually be an immediate fail unless you're on the receiving end. There's no prize money for winning comp school.

Make sure whoever is crewing for you (if you are lucky enough to have someone) triple checks hood/deck pins. Saw someone end their comp school weekend early when the hood flipped back into the windshield because they hurriedly got into the car after class.

Read the CCR on passing 2-3 times and ask questions on areas that aren't clear.
