Should always prepare for a road run..the departments that take in alot of applicants seem to push them outside for a good early morning 1 1/2-er. What seems to be the consensus as far as the bench? Are most departments using the smith machine or the good ole free weight bench? Seems to be different everywhere I have tested.

the smith machine is definitely friendly with the amount you can put up, or at least it is for me.

Where do you get the medical forms? Do you get them after you send in the application?

Thanks

Yes, they mail you everything after you send in your application.

No Smith machine, free weights are used. I think it's 90% of your body weight, if I remember right. It's only 1 rep. You will get all the info in the mail after you apply.

How about the order of the events? Also, are the situps timed?
