I am currently going through the selection process. I really want an SNA slot, but I have concerns. All of my stats are great except... you guessed it... my ASTB stats.
I would really apprecite some feedback on the info below... Do you think I have any chance? Any advice on what else I might do to make myself more competetive?
ASTB 2nd try: 48 5/5/5 -- I studied several hours everyday for over a month... I just have a problem with standardizerd tests.
*Prior Service Army Intelligence Analyst (airborne)
--Not a single blemish
--Released early to pursue college and Navy Commission
*Currently a Special Investigator for USAA insurance
*Graduated with a 3.74 GPA from University of West Florida; 3.91 major GPA
-Major: BS - Information Technology; Minor: E-learning Support Systems
*LOR:

- Ret. Secret Service Agent (Supervisor) -- guarded a couple presidents
- Civilian Attny - (Co-worker)
*Interviews:

*Physical:

So, does the Navy really care about the "whole person concept" or does it all really come down to the ASTB?
