Question about Army ranking up?

[Neil]

I'm trying to rank up before I leave for basic training. I know I need to do a physical test but I also need to take a online class or something before the physical part. Could you help me clarify how it works and what the web site is to take these classes?

I think you can get to PV2 or PFC if you refer some people to your recruiter.

The highest you can rank is SPC. If you have any college, tell them, for every [certain number] of hours you have you get rank. Take the PT Test.. its a 2-mile run, sit-up and push-up event. You have to meet the Army Standards as if you were graduating AIT... so its like [for 18-21y/o males] a 15:00 two mile, 54 sit ups and like atleast 42 push-ups. If you can pass that, get a rank. And if you recruit someone then you also get rank. I entered as a PVT and im a PFC... its not worth waiting.... Do all you can now.
