During my first semester of freshman year, I joined the college ROTC program. It was a grueling program wherein I was going to bed at 9p.m. every night, and waking up at 4:30a.m. (I was very thankful that I had a very considerate and patient roommate!) At some points I definitely wanted to quit, but in the end it was worth it. There were only 3 out of 10 freshmen who made it through the program, and I was one of them.

NOTE: Talk about teamwork or something you are really involved with, especially if it involves working with others. This question is another way to ask, "what are your strengths?"
