Just to give you a "heads up", the only outcome with the way you're going is you being banned. Tighten up your shot group, read more, post less.

Since you are all over it already, why don't you take the CLEP challenge and get credit for this training as well?

Rangers, I have some new info on this subject. Like I posted my son went thru SERE before SFGC and did not have to complete SERE during SFQC. UPDATE/ After SFQC and before graduation my son was told he would not graduate at that moment and had to complete the SFQC SERE course, Evidently the Instructor that passed my son did not have the right to do so. MY son talked to the Command SGT/Major. He approved the Ft Rucker C level course and my son graduated with the rest of the class. Have notheard for sure but good possibility that an outside SERE course might not be approved for SFQC soldiers in the future. If any soldier on this board runs into the same situtatio make sure you talk to someone that has the authority to decide your case. But update on son, Graduated SFQC sent to 10th SFG Colorado Springs, assigned to "A" team. thanks for everything Lynn

typically speaking the qcourse command doesn't like to honor outside courses. i know the soldier that this was about. the ft rucker course while its a level c course is still different than the course here. how, i'm not going to discuss. the command here basically states that the pipeline here exists for a reason therefore if you want to be sf, you'll go through the whole pipeline. we've had cct's, seals, pj's and recon guys that even though they had sere c previously, didnt come here and had to do it again anyways. every now and then there is an exception, like what happened with said soldier.
