Where do you start?

Ok, so I've been spending way too much time on uboat.net and I decided to get SH3. I know I'm in way over my head but I would like to eventually learn how to play with 100% realism and GWX and all that good stuff. But right now I'm still at rank HN 3 (Hardcore Noob, 3rd class).
I've mostly been playing the naval academy and trying to get used to stuff.

So my question is how did everyone start out? Did you just jump right into a career and learn from trial and error? Did you turn the realism settings down until you figured things out? Did you play the naval academy over and over again?

Yes, I have been reading the newbie guides and the community manual, but I'm wondering how different people approached the game when they started out. Also what settings are considered "standard"? I kind of assume that most people play with 100% realism as sort of the way to play. Is that right?
