yeah, I hear you Biff, I wish I could say being a fellow Marine is enough, but I can't say I agree with the MIZZOU idea. Its amazing what happens when you get rid of a coke'd out head coach, and get to recruuit off campus because your kids stopped sleeping with the AD's wife... You finally compete!!
all in good fun, by the way!
No, I was a TOW gunner with 24th Marine Regiment HQ, but we were disbanded, so I lat moved to COMM, so I didn't have to transfer to Springfield

Disbanded, wow what a shame... Tows were the only thing on the entire base considered grunts. Yea I worked out of the RG Finance office from 03-05. That's odd, two close packages coming from the same area to the same board.
Anyway good luck to you, and somebody tell that slob Mangino to start weight watchers or something, otherwise everyone in Missouri will cry tears of happiness when he keels over on the 50 yard line after a touchdown/peanut butter + bacon sandwhich induced heart attack

A recruiter in my area created this blog. The stats are reliable, I just don't know if they are national or local. I'm guessing national.

Hey that blog is pretty intriguing. Does anybody have any idea what percentage of people who apply for a pilot position are actually on this forum? I bet its more than you'd think. Just coming here to put in my 2 cents. I've been lurking throughout my BDCP application process and the forum has been alot of help. The results could not come any sooner as far as I'm concerned.
my specs:
22 yo male
BDCP pilot only
3.1 GPA with a 7/7/6 58 ASTB
I've got some LORs from good guys (mostly personal, one former SEAL)
I'm a CFI/CFII rotorcraft helicopter with roughly 400 hrs
Lots of volunteering with the church and whatnot.
My recruiter seemed to think that the board basically only looks at GPA and ASTB primarily. Good luck all.

Does anyone here have consistent contact with their recruiter or is it normal not to talk to him/her for a few weeks? The only reason I ask is because I haven't spoken to mine in awhile but I figured because he is very busy. Also my package was submitted already and there is no reason to talk until the results come out. So is this normal for everyone else?

I hastle mine every week or so, especially since like you my package wasn't seen last month. This week we should know who is being looked at by the board as the list gets released to the recruiters. If I had hastled mine last month, I wouldn't have been so let down on St. Pats... While recruiters are busy, they don't hold a candle to enlisted recruiters who constantly have a quota of 2-4 bodies enlisted a month... If my enlisted recruiter could keep in contact with me with 30 other dep'ers, I know for damn sure that an Officer Recruiter can keep in contact with 5-7.
