You threw out some pretty good gouge, and VT-6 is holding pretty steady. I finished there almost a year ago with a 1.18 and a 59 NSS.
So, for everyone trying to figure out what you have, you just aren't going to be able to accurately predict your final result.
There are too many unknown variables.
Just saw that guy on the Steve Harvey show. An incredible story, seems like a good dude.Your loss. That dude is a rockstar.
For those that don't know what we're talking about:
Leaves Alaska when his mom gets imprisoned for a parole violation.
Meets his father for the first time his senior year in high school.
Father commits suicide a year later.
Receives appointments to both USNA and USAFA. Chooses USNA.
One week before graduating from high school as valedictorian, gets hit by a drunk driver.
Denied acceptance to USNA because of injuries from the crash.
Goes to Ga Teach for a year.
Goes to USNA.
Multi-year starter on the football team.
BS in Aerospace Engineering with a > 3.0 QPR.
Selected to be the Brigade Commander for the second semester of his 1/c year.
Commissions as a Marine, and most importantly...
Is honored with the privilege of being the final new Phrog pilot in the USMC.
Yeah, I could have just said it was mind boggling that he was a football player who became Brigade Commander (that doesn't happen very often), but it wouldn't encapsulate how strong of character he is. Oh, and he spends his time on leave as an inspirational speaker helping kids. So yeah, he's a rockstar.

...only how you rank against your peers...
This may have been said somewhere before but I'll say it again...
With a new syllabus, CNATRA makes a phantom pool of completers with made up NSSs....50 if I remember correctly. You are compared to that. You and your squadron peers change that pool and replace them as you go. By this point the numbers are made up by referencing the other squadrons that fly the same syllabus i.e. Whiting. So if the big heads that created the numbers were off, you get screwed or hooked up depending if they guessed high or low. The very first studs in the very first T-6 squadron were screwed/hooked up the worst. You...not so much. BUT...unless your IPs follow the example data set's grading trends, there will be differences.
You can't control it. Don't nuke it to death. Do the best you can day-to-day.
Oh....and don't suck.
Definitely good advice!You can't control it. Don't nuke it to death. Do the best you can day-to-day.
Oh....and don't suck.
