SWO has an extremely high selection rate right now. 85%+. If you have a pulse and can pass MEPs at this point you’re likely to get selected.
I hope that is true, I applied for Suppo in 2017, no luck Now I am applying for SWO
my OAR is a little bumpy with score of 43.
I do have STEM background 3.32 GPA and 3 years of exp in IT

That was an old post, SWO over-selected and pushed everyone from the previously scheduled board to the one in August.

Is that confirmed? Or are they taking double the amount of applicants for two different boards?

I have a similar question that was asked in a previous submission, I'm going for the SWO board in November.
I have a masters GPA of 3.125 (not to impressive)
Oar 45
As well as 5+ recommendations one from a prior SWO who was a CO, a president of a large pharmaceutical company, a congressman, a judge, two volunteer directors from reputable NGO's, a past coach, a church pastor, and awaiting one from a active duty Captain.
With all that and a strong person statement what would my chances be realistically since it was stated the community is backed up at the moment with applicants? I'm also currently active duty enlisted with less than 1 year of experience.
