Factual error: Aaron Cross claims he got into the Army because his recruiter lied on his application and added 12 points to his IQ so he would meet the minimum. The problem with that claim is the military does not take your IQ into consideration for enlistment. The military uses the ASVAB to determine academic qualification, and it is not a measurement of your IQ. Also, in order to prevent dishonest recruiters from altering test scores, recruits are tested in a neutral location and have their scores recorded by a third party. (01:21:15)
