I was thinking of doing the same thing. I'm not sure if the ASTB transfers, I don't think they have an equivalent test. As far as I know (I talked to a recruiter and did some research) it is really hard to go right from Coast Guard OCS into Aviation training. For one thing, in the Coast Guard...

Why don't they just check for everything at MEP's before you apply for OCS as an SNA? Wouldn't that save a lot of time and expense, instead of getting NPQ'd once you get there?

How does one get NPQ'd? Does this happen while you're going through OCS, and you end up having some physical problem and then get kicked out? Or does it happen to people right when they get there due to an entrance physical or something? Can you then re-apply for OCS if you're kicked out...

I heard the same thing about there not being any '03 spots left, but we'll see what happens, I guess I could wait a year until '04 slots come around. You're lucky you can talk to a recruiter face-to-face, I live in ND and mine is in Nebraska, literally 600 miles away. About the ASTB, I took it...

I was searching on Google for info and came across a link. Also someone had a link to your page on a Military.com message post. Actually, that is a good suggestion, maybe you could get a link to their site, or another good one to be linked to would be usmilitary.about.com

Well, I will have to talk to my recruiter again. He could've meant 8yrs. + training = 10, but I don't think so, he specifically said something about it happening two months ago. I think the Air Force is 10 though, right? Maybe they're getting all the services on the same page?

First off, I just took the ASTB yesterday and I think it went pretty well. On thing's for sure, that Marines ASTB study guide reallyhelped out a lot! Thanks to whomever posted the link. If anyone else wants it just email me Andrew.Paris@ndsu.nodak.edu Anyway, I was talking to my recruiter...

Thanks for the help, I'm nervous about the test, but after surfing through some of the other posts, I've found a lot of helpful info. Of course anyone else who is reading this and has anything to add about my other questions is certainly welcome.

Hello all, I just found this great site, I wish I had known about it earlier. Here's my situation, I'm a fifth year senior majoring in electrical engineering (graduating in Dec.) I do pretty well in school, and I've been thinking a lot about my future lately and I guess I don't want to sit in...
