Not sure this will help but this is the response we got back from MNCC when trying to update ASOSH for a few of our members: Where should I submit documentation for correcting reserve retirement points? Less than 12 months old: The member’s Navy Reserve Activity (NRA) will submit their points...

Are you already a pilot or are you just looking a long ways in the future? If you're just now applying for pilot and get your wings, it'll be at least 10 years until you'll be able to apply to medical school. I did medical officer recruiting and I worked with a pilot who applied for HPSP after...

I recently transitioned into FTS HR, send me a PM, happy to talk about the community

It seems starting next year if you do well on your PRT you will get to skip the next one which is a nice little change. UNCLASSIFIED ROUTINE R 201258Z JUN 17 FM CNO WASHINGTON DC NAVADMIN 141/17 MSGID/GENADMIN/CNO WASHINGTON DC/N1/JUN// SUBJ/PHYSICAL READINESS PROGRAM POLICY CHANGES//...

NFO wings please! I winged back in March 2009 and had a good run with Prowlers

That definitely makes me feel better, appreciate the feedback!

Sounds good, thanks for the quick reply!

All, Quick question that seems to be similar to Snakes. I left active duty this past September, immediately joined SELRES and started 2-year AD recall orders as a CANREC. I was below zone last year for the active duty O-4 board and it looks like I'll be above zone for this coming reserve O-4...

I would definitely say do the study abroad! I spent a year in Europe and if most colleges are like UCSD, all of those classes were just a part of my normal transcript so you shouldn't have to worry about having a separate, foreign degree. Besides having an awesome time wherever you go, it...

For what it's worth, I had the same issue where I failed at MEPS and then got a letter from out in town that my depth perception was ok. I was able to get SNA but then when I got to OCS I failed the depth perception again and was then offered NFO which has worked out extremely well. This was 7...

I failed the depth perception test at MEPS as well and then went to an eye doctor who passed me and said that I was good to go. I had him write a quick report stating that he had reviewed me that I sent in with my OCS application. That seemed to work fine as I was pro-rec'd SNA. The...

IFS is really not as intense as you're making it out to be. Every single question is out there for you, and you just have to read the books. It seems to me that IFS is here to stay for a while, why do you think that it wont? You should enjoy at least part of your time there. just out of...

One of the guys in my class had a knee brace that he wore pretty much every time we ran. He brought a lot of attention to himself for it though, so be prepared. Unless it's changed in the past few months, the only times we ran were at pt in the morning, and you always knew it was coming so you...

staff: i have had one all my life and just like you it is very small... I put it on all the paperwork i ever signed. MEPS didnt seem to care too much about it... I had to write a page describing that I was physically active and good to go from my standpoint. I got a waiver but it was basically...

"Driving as little as 15 MPH over the limit on an interstate highway now brings six license demerit points, a fine of up to $2500, up to one year in jail, and a new mandatory $1050 tax" That is the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard!!

i'm pretty sure it's still 12 weeks... might want to check your info...

I just got into A-pool this week and went into the IFS office thinking my 25 hours and solo x-country i did back home was good to go... but they said that the rules changed and you need a PPL to get out of having to do IFS. This is for the people who didn't do IFS through a navy program...

I'll be there as well... driving from california, can't wait to get started!

haha fair enough... thanx for the advice guys, when i think about it, it really does make a lot more sense to drive.

Hey all, so i got my report date which is 5 may, a little later then the other guys i was pro-rec'd with, but that's ok. I was just wondering if anyone had any experience with shipping their car to p'cola. I'm in so cal and have been planning on driving but my friend mentioned this as an...

Just thought i'd post my scores if anyone was interested... 23 years old, non-prior 3.4 gpa UCSD 8,8,8 63 ASTB 25 hours flight time Good High Pft good letters of rec and extracurriculars and all that good stuff. Pro Rec Navy SNA last week, 2/27/07 good luck to everyone!

well... just wanted to let you guys know i got pro-rec sna today, really excited to say the least! thank you all for your help, i really appreciate it and i hope everything turns out well for everyone!

that's great that so many people from airwarriors were picked up! definitely good news. My app was reviewed by the jan board so hopefully i'll be able to get in touch with my recruiter today or tomorrow and find out the news. Thanx for the interest, i'll keep you updated.

I'm actually working with NRD spokane in washington state i believe. I was living in Montana for a few months with my brother last summer/fall when I applied and they were the closest apparently. When i moved back down here to socal i just stayed with my recruiter, really good guy! haha long...

congratulations to everyone who got picked up and i really hope that those who didn't will get the good news the next time around! i'm still waiting for my outcome from the january board, getting anxious :)

Hey Chrisco, I had the same thing when i was younger, my foot had a slight reaction when i stepped on a bee. I saw a doctor about it but nothing serious ever happened. Definitely check out the Aeromedical guide like has been suggested, they just want to see that it happened when you were...

My recruiter yesterday said the board is definitely meeting this month... and that we'd find out hopefully not too long after... the waiting game is getting close to done! good luck to everyone!

hey toledo... I have no idea what number of questions you have to get right to get a certain score, except that you're just compared to others taking the same test. With that said, you should definitely just do all the practice problems you can over and over until you know how to do all of...

"all airports offering instruction have towers" actually this isn't really true, there are lots of airports across the country that offer instruction and dont have towers... those students are a little less trained on the radio but still get their ppl, just thought i'd put this out there...

Congrats!!

hey tombstone, the way i understand the scores is a little while ago they turned the astb into basically pass/no pass for the academy and rotc, but they are still important for OCS... my recruiter said to shoot for at least the 50's and 6/6/6 at the very least for a pilot spot, although...

hey stormin, I'd say your stats look pretty good... your test scores are on the low end of the scale for a flight contract i think, i read your other post and the only thing i could say is to get the official sheet from your recruiter that NOMI has for you and see if they're are any...

just wanted to thank everyone for their help studying for the test, i just got my scores back today and this site was definitely a great source of information!!! thanx again

i've actually been in helena, mt so i've been working with a lt. from spokane actually haha... but im moving back in about a month so if my ap isnt ready yet i'll probably be working with the guys in SD

hey, i just graduated from ucsd in june and i'm in the midst of getting my packet together so i'll be a few boards behind you... just wanted to wish you good luck, sounds like you're pretty solid with everything so hopefully you'll get accepted!

would you guys who just got pro-rec'd be interested in sharing your stats to a curious future applicant? mostly just astb and gpa perhaps?

thanx a lot guys that's really helpful actually... i thought missiles were pretty random but glad to know that they're useful to study!

Hey all, well i guess i have two questions... alright so can someone just please explain what "tension" is refering too... i get all the mechanical advanatage and everything on the gouge, just a little confused what a tension question would look like (forgive me if this is blatantly obvious!)...

Hey all, so i feel stupid for asking about these problems because i can do the others just fine... x/4 + X = x - x/2 = the first answer (according to the arco book) is 5x/4, and the second is 4x. I found a couple things wrong in arco, is this one of them or am i just having a major brain...
