[adamshahan]

You were a non-select for the Jan INTEL board? I was told the results weren't out yet.

 

[freudianmouse]

My recruiter emailed me Friday to say that I was "not selected at the January intel board." Having said that, my recruiter also just found out that I was pro-rec'd SNA, and said Friday that those results weren't available.

 

[P3toP8]

Thats another shocker! I would have thought you would have gotten your second choice at the very least. So are you going to wait another 6 months and then apply with those scores?

I still in a little shock too, not that anything is owed to me, I just think I have a competitive package.

It's still to early to tell whether I'm gonna retake the test. I'm definitely resubmitting asap. I'm in the reserves and evals are coming out, I will get a EP and I got sailor of the quarter, I've only been there 6 mo., that should say something.

 

[strife70]

Just called my recruiter again today. He said I was non select for all 3 of my choices including NFO (first choice). Here's my stuff if anyone is interested

59 7/6/6
Math degree 3.1 gpa from University of Florida

My LORs were well written and personal but none from current or prior military. Several athletics but none in college, just intramurals and a little volunteer work ~100 hours. I think my motivational statement was fairly well written too


well in any case I'm somewhat confused because my name is not even on flyman's list for NFO pro rec or not. It just doesn't appear anywhere. Anyone have any idea what happened? I submitted early November

Sounds like you probably got rolled to a later board, like a few other people mentioned earlier.

 

[pt6776]

heard from my CMC today that i was pro rec for intel, but would like to see something in writing. Mr. Elam said the fleet msg would be out in the 3rd week of FEB

 

[AG3HEATHER]

Thanks. I am just wondering what recent numbers have been if they are public knowledge?

I applied to the Air Force board and the numbers were about 1/3 of last years so I wanted to know if the Navy is making similar cuts

Hey there. That's a resonable assumption. Keep in mind who is in power and the funding he is providing to launderers and the like instead of investing in national defense and our military.

I just wanted to thank you for posting John 15:13. It is the truth and that is a right perspective especially for those serving. Congrats on your selection! I will find out this week whether I was selected for Intel since it seems the lists were released on the fourth of this month. When are you set to go?

 

[mjulian]

Hurray!!!! Non-select SNA and NFO!!!

More waiting to come for me as I am re-applying. Congratulations to all those who were selected. Commiserations to those who are like me and were not.

To all those who weren't:
Keep your head up and stay positive. Everything happens for a reason. For now, just bust your ass to improve so that you may prove to them that you deserve a selection.

Catch y'all on the next thread

P.S. I believe I am still owed some beer.

 

[throttleman]

Just heard from my OR, pro rec'd SNA and NFO!!

 

[Gus Gorilla]

I got my phone call today.
Pro-Rec SNA! Pro-Rec NFO! I can barely contain myself.

Throttleman and Gus CONGRATS!

 

[flyman3456]

My OR also contacted the SNA/NFO program manager today, only to find out he was unavailable.... because he was currently in the pilot/nfo boards. It's pretty interesting how a period at the end of a sentence can make it appear that i'm not completely enthralled.

DING DING DING! And the winner of "Who can spread the most accurate rumor" is visual scan! Where would you like your beer mailed?
