A pace is equal to one natural step. The average step about 30 inches long, but every soldier's step naturally varies, so it is imperative you find your own pace count. To use pace count accurately, a Soldier knows how many paces it takes to walk 100 m. To determine this, walk an accurately measured course (like 100 m or 600 m) and count the number of paces. If using a 600 m course, divide the total paces by 6 to find the average paces per 100 m. Each person who navigates dismounted should know their own pace count.

This website is an extension of The Board Questions Podcast. I created the podcast first because I was ejected from my first board. I was brand new to the Army, just sent on rotation to Germany after OSUT, and my squad leader had it in his head that every one of his soldiers would attend a soldier of them month board. I knew nothing, got chewed up and spit out, and failed. I refused to accept that as a final result.
I decided to build something that I needed. I gathered the questions, studied the regs, and used an AI voice to create The Board Questions Podcast. I used the podcast the study up, I won my battalion's Soldier of the Quarter board, and have worked hard to help as many soldiers as possible prepare.
Not everyone learns from audio, so I built this website. However, if you'd like to suppliment your studies by listening to the podcast as well, each of the topics by difficulty episodes covers the exact same questions that are covered on this site. The podcast even has explainations for each answer, some additional memorizational guides, and repetition chapters to help you go over it while your ear and mind are free, like commuting, playing video games, or doing chores.
Feel free to listen!
