MENTAL EXAMINATION
The examination takes place as follows, viz.:
1st Day.--Blank for personal and school history to be filled out
by all who report for examination, 11 a.m. to 12,
noon, 1 hour.
History, 1 to 5 p.m., 4 hours.
2d Day.--Algebra, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., 4 hours.
Geography, 2 to 5 p.m., 3 hours.
3d Day.--Geometry, 9 a.m. to 1 p.m., 4 hours.
English Grammar, Composition, and Literature, 1:30 to
5:30 p.m., 4 hours.
Every candidate who reports is required to fill out, in the most
careful manner, the personal and school history sheet and the autograph
and official notification address blanks. The fact that a candidate may
be reporting for the physical examination only, does not by any means
exempt him from accomplishing these blanks, as the information they
contain is vitally necessary for the permanent and statistical records
of the Military Academy.
The candidate is given all assistance needed to insure the proper
filling out of these papers.
