The majority of failures I saw for the IST was for the run portion, but it was not uncommon for a DI/RDC to “stand up” candidates during the pushups/sit-ups portion because their form was awful. If you get told to stand up before you reach your minimum you fail the evolution and get a first...

I went the small car (Civic) route with renting furnished places and its worked out really well so far. As was said they are easy enough to put on a trailer behind a U-Haul if needed. Plus I drive alot so when it only costs $22 to fill it up after 400 miles I can put the savings towards...

In between training I was able to finish Duty: Memoirs of a Secretary at War by Former Secretary of Defense Robert M. Gates and I thought it was a great read. The inner workings of Washington isn't always the most engaging subject but I thought it was very insightful on how complex hammering out...

Recently completed API and requesting access to the PNA forum, thanks in advance.

I'm unmarried and not prior service and I started receiving partial BAH for OHARP as soon as I was commissioned. I've been on the forums for awhile but I wasn't sure what the deal was until it showed up on my LES.

You are far from the first person to be asking these questions. I suggest taking a few minutes to look around the site. You will find the resources needed to answer them. Here is the answer to your second question, a link to the top thread on "Questions on becoming a Navy Officer"...

Yep, it took a little over a week after my OR received them.

Was informed today that this will be my class. I look forward to meeting y'all!

After 10 months in here, it feels great to check out! Selected for SNA in February, graduated in December, and heading to OCS on January 29th.

I can confirm that you can not receive an official class date until your final transcripts are submitted. I was selected for SNA in February but didn't officially enter final select purgatory until I graduated a few weeks ago. I've been told that I should be receiving orders soon, so the wait...

Currently reading "Carrying the Fire: An Astronaut's Journey" by Michael Collins of Apollo 11. He does a great job of vividly describing his experience as a test pilot and working his way up to and through the Gemini and Apollo programs. I highly recommend it...

I'm waiting for a December graduation and was Pro-Rec'd in February... at times it has been slow but overall the past five months have gone by rather quickly. I'm betting that the next five will go by even quicker, especially with football as a distraction lol.

Never know is right! The day I got my Pro-Rec Y I had given up on hearing that day and took a nap after class - lo and behold I was woken up by a call around 6 PM CST from my recruiter. I was a weird combination of groggy and jittery the entire call lol.

Not sure how well known this is, but if you go to Google and type in “search phrase site:airwarriors.com” it will bring up a comprehensive list of results that are easy to sort through. For example, if you go and type in: ocs dates site:airwarriors.com It will bring up 1,830 relevant results...

I graduate this December so I've anticipated a long wait, but I'm hoping my class date won't be too much later after that. I'm not sure if having such a relatively early pro-rec puts me earlier in the class queue for late December/early January.

Man maybe my perspective is different since it's a big state but I hear all the time about city cops and state troopers pulling people over for 5-10 mph over the limit and being anything but nice. Knowing some of the 35 mph limits around here if I was caught going 83 I wouldn't be surprised if I...

I've been certain that I want to go the aviation route. I'm fortunate to have both a SWO-Nuke and Aviator in the family who have helped shape my interests.

Checking in, Pro Rec Y SNA from the Feb 2016 board. I won't be graduating until December so I'll be waiting here for quite a while...

Got a call from my recruiter...Pro-Rec Y SNA! NRD Houston found out not too long ago. Having trouble processing it... good luck to everyone still waiting!

Would have been great to include that in my motivational statement

My recruiter notified me not even thirty minutes after RUFiO181 posted the date on here. I have to believe there is someone in the NRD who gets notified and passes it along, unless my recruiter is also an airwarriors lurker.

Checking in!

This forum has been an awesome resource. I took the ASTB-E for the first time this past Thursday and received a 67 8/7/8. All things considered I'm happy with the score and will be sending it in with my SNA package. I put in about 10 hours of preparation in total, with most of my focus being on...
