It is 8-9 weeks of learning how to do things exactly as you are told. You will learn to pay attention to detail.
Essentially, it is not very hard. If you are in any kind of shape, the physical aspect is easy. Even if you are only in mediocre shape, you can get through the physical part. Know how to swim (only the absolute basics of swimming and floating are required. Believe me, I can BARELY swim and I passed on the first attempt).
Here are some quick points:
1. Learn how to shut the hell up and listen.
2. Do everything exactly as you are TOLD to do it, don't overthink things.
3. You will be given a study book. Study it.
4. Try to be able to do your end requirements for the physical test before you leave for basic. Good rule of thumb for males is the run in under 12 minutes, at least 60 pushups and 60 situps, females about 13-14 minutes and 40 pushups and 60 situps. Just a good rule of thumb before you go. It helps.
5. You don't have to know how to swim, (they will help you), but be able to.
6. You will get up at 6AM every morning and go to bed at 10PM.
7. You will eat 3 meals a day.
8. Your division will get inspected constantly.
9. Take only the clothes on your back, wallet, and cell phone. The cell phone and your personal clothes will get mailed home after you get your 20 second phone call home to let whoever know you made it there. The wallet stays locked up in you locker.
10. DO NOT whine, complain, backtalk, or god forbid CRY when you are getting disciplined. It makes it get much worse.
11. You will get exercised to exhaustion regularly as punishment as a division, try not to get this as an individual for something stupid you have done.
12. You will learn firefighting, damage control, weapons (barley), line handling and marching.
13. You will get about 3-4 calls home when you are there. Bring a phone card, and you can buy phone cards when you are there as well.
Hope these help. The best thing I can tell you is never give up at anything. If you are being punished by exercise and can't move your body anymore, wiggle something but don't give up! You have 2 months to work as hard as you can and to do what you are told to do.
