Thanks, thats what I was thinking too. The interview went very well and he asked me numerous times to keep him updated at every point in the application process.

Morning started pretty good with that OAR but I shit the bed in the PBM section.
Guess I’ll grill some steaks or something this weekend to take my mind off it

Yeah that was my second try. It’s especially bugging me because those were literally the same scores I got the first time and I went in completely blind then.
No use in complaining tho, I just gotta get better and retry

Yeah I've been using the tracking sim with a cheap Logitech stick and it definitely helped; in fact, I think the actual test was easier than the sim in that it felt like it was moving slower. I definitely know where I tripped up tho:
- ANIT was about 50/50, some of the questions were pretty basic but others were more specific knowledge that I don't really remember seeing before.
- I was moving pretty quickly in the UAV portion, but I lost focus towards the end so I missed about 3 or 4 in a row and 5ish total.
- During the first dichotic listening test, I read the directions but didn't write down which buttons to press for odd/even and completely blanked as soon as the practice portion started. Simple mistake, but I'm pretty sure I missed every possible point on that part because of it.
- Listening/tracking wasn't as bad as I thought it would be, but I still missed a few points here and there.
- I don't think I did too bad on emergency procedures (I got them all right), but I focused on fixing the emergencies so much that I lost track of both targets so I'm sure I missed points there.

This may be a dumb question, but NROTC midshipmen do not have to worry about these boards, correct?

Making Recruiting Great Again
There’s a board schedule usually for every fiscal year. The schedule for the upcoming FY is usually released around the summer timeframe.
Is you’re working with a recruiter, they would have the most up to date info.

For those that don't have their package submitted yet:
Do everything in your power to get all the paperwork submitted as soon as possible.
But I think we should be pessimistic in our assumption that we can make this board. My package made it to NRC last week and my recruiter is (managing my expectations) telling me my package won't be looked at until the Fall board.
If anything, the conversations of the previous board threads is a huge testament to start early;
If you have even a thought in your head about being a SNA get started today. In terms of time, the ASTB and MEPS will be your greatest timesinks so try and get those out of the way first. The rest of the documents are pretty boilerplate so if you haven't taken the ASTB yet, get studying. If you are worried about fitness worry about that after your package is submitted, you'll have plenty of time to get in shape.

Hi everyone, I hope your applications are going well. I wanted to gather some opinions on my current situation.
Currently, my package is complete, but I haven't submitted yet as my ASTB score is currently 48 5/5/6. I planned on retaking but my job and other personal commitments keep me very busy and I've been struggling to find a consistent study schedule.
My recruiter is advising me to submit with my current scores, and if I am not accepted, to retake for the next board in the Fall. I'm tempted to do this in case this board closes the application window early, and also to buy me more studying time.
If y'all were in my shoes, would you submit as is?

retest, it is very very rare for anyone to get picked up SNA with a 5, it sounds as if he or she is just trying to get you to submit so he or she looks good. If you do submit you are more than likely looking at August anyway, so by the time those results come out and you get a chance to retest you could be looking at early next year.
Thanks for the input. If it makes a difference, I'm applying for SNFO.
