Unfortunately I have a mediocre GPA in the 2.7 range that I am hoping to overcome, albeit in Aerospace Engineering.

I dont believe the board pays too much attention on GPA, but more so on your ASTB scores.
That’s what I’ve heard as well. Hoping it’s true with my 2.7 as well ?

Late to the party, just discovered these forums.
I missed the last board, submitted my package for this board in late October. I was very excited to finally put all the paperwork and medical hiccups behind me. I started my application in August 2019
Applying SNA
ASTB - 64 8/7/8
GPA - 3.53
Age - 22
Major - Financial Planning
Prior Service - N
Flight experience - Student Pilot, about 20 hours.
Reading this forum has made me much more anxious about the board overall and my chances, but I guess there is nothing I can do about it!

It's not a big deal, I was selected with a 2.74.
Several others on the October Excel had a 2.6 and one with a 2.3 was selected, and that's as far as we know, I would imagine there were several others in the same position that were selected. The type of degree will help and whatever accomplishments you've done since then to counteract a lower GPA. Looking at a GPA alone is a poor indicator of an individuals ability to complete flight school so it's of minimal concern to the board. Just because someone has a 4.0 doesn't make them better suited to be a pilot; PFAR is far more important than GPA.
It is a solid military tactic to throw off possible enemies. If we don't know what we are doing, how could they?
#AW4Lyf! Then again I will stay away from waivers lol
For signal we ask in formation who was on AW as if we are playing a game of telephone. I heard the DI's/RDC's are really cool with this method of communication.

For the people that are curious and don't have access, nothing board related has been posted to the NRC Intranet.
Thank you. This is me every morning lurking on this thread. Hoping for any news.
I was actually thinking about asking you before. Do you have the capabilities to check the site that everyone talks about?
Ohh and 19 days of Hell to hurtle all!

Yeah, AFAIK I have the right site. It’s the NRC Intranet that posts the At Board List and the Board Results. I check it daily for pretty much no reason, lol. It’s habit or nervous tick at this point - not sure which.
Well at least you can satisfy that tick! I just have to look like a tweaker at my desk all day. Internally conflicted on my chances for selection. Coming to the conclusion I have a decent shot, then self-doubt kicks in... then the vicious cycle repeats.
Soooooo, I will have to bug you when the time comes to see if there is unofficial results. under the condition I get to buy you a case after OCS LOL!
