Getting people all jacked up with horror stories isn't helping anyone's cause. Sure, people don't make it from time to time, but there's usually more to the story than "they washed out".

I've been through it too. It's hard, no joke, you need to take it seriously. But I firmly believe if you come in with a good attitude and show them you want to be there, they (the training dept) will do what it takes to get you through.

Stay focused, keep your nerves in check, and keep your eye on the prize.
