if by "old system", you mean pencil and paper..nope. funnily enough, my third score is the same as my first score, and the computer/program froze and the lady had to call the company and deal with it for 20-30 minutes. ha, looking back it was probably a sign

SWO Intel Supply I believe it was. I only chose Supply due to my 3rd recruiter saying I should apply to that (when my second OAR score wasn't high enough). I've more or less resigned myself and need to regroup

I thought for Intel, at least according to navy.com, they'd be looking for Internationals relations majors or something similar. But oh well

Didn't get selected for SWO. And I've already taken the OAR 3 times, so no chance of bringing that score up.

looks like I haven't been selected to any of the boards I've applied to. good luck to everyone! was nice commiserating with you guys and will be supporting the Navy from the civilian side.

I've been in contact with her. She said she hasn't seen anything but I might as well ask again

Haven't heard anything. But hey! At least it'll almost be a month since the board..can't be any longer than that.. :confused:

wasn't selected, but good luck to everyone else!

Texted/called early Friday morning and again in the afternoon. Quite aware that recruiters wouldn't bother with work on the weekend so...

hmm..if only I hadn't already texted/called my recruiter AND former recruiter with no response.. I'm not sure what I put as my available date, but considering it was back in December..might have been a date already passed.

If we get a Y from this board, what is the earliest we could expect to have to report to OCS? Since I'm assuming the finsel and and OCS report date comes after the pro-rec. I'd like to give my work enough time to find my replacement but also spend time with family a bit. Thanks!

thanks! :)

Would the board still meet today, since today is Presidents Day? Or are the dates on the schedule, just for that week?

Checking in as well! Good luck to everyone!

the order listed in my signature isn't the same as on my application packet. idk why I put it that way, but I haven't bothered to change it. when I got with my final recruiter Lt lady, I had it set to Supply 3rd and either Intel or SWO first or second.

that's weird (for OP)... I wear glasses too and I wouldn't say my eyesight is BAD bad but I definitely choose to need them. and I've still been able to put my packet in for SWO. My recruiter(s) (one a petty officer and second a Lt) didn't bring it up hardly at all and the Chief medical guy I...

I'm just going to have to resign myself to May

Not to discredit anyone, but I just heard back from my recruiter and she said the board has been pushed back to (the first pushback mentioned) March 20. If it takes them around a month to decide..maybe hear back April? Which, in my case it would be a great birthday present to hear back a YES

I'm assuming this is for the Supply board set to meet ~Feb 20? if so, checking in as well!

Checking in also. Taking this as a practice of patience..

Checking in as well :) First board application so I'm hopeful. Wishing everyone the best as well

I searched and found a pdf of the Arco book, 7th edition (should be the right one, I believe) http://www.nelnetsolutions.com/pdf/officer_candidate_tests-7ed_print.pdf

I know this board hasn't happened yet (not for awhile at least), but I was just curious as to how many others have applied to this one. I was also wondering if someone could explain to me what my recruiter was telling me (didn't have much time to talk, as I was leaving for work)...he said the...

Hi, I'm also applying to SWO, and my package is all ready to go, but when I met with my recruiter yesterday, he informed me that they had changed the minimum OAR score to 45 (in which case, I wouldn't make it with my current OAR score of 44)... has anyone else heard of this? He said they had...

Thanks everyone for your replies! I haven't heard or contacted my recruiter...I only did so about 3 days after I took my OAR because I was worried about my score..he said not to worry about it and that he'd contact me for the next steps. So I'm sure I'm not personally bothering them. I'm just...

Hi everyone, I just had a quick question as to what an average "timeline/step-by-step" would look like, from the very beginning to when you actually go to OCS. I've met with a recruiter, and they asked me basic questions about what I'd be interested in doing, and why I'm joining etc. I then...

Did you have to pay for ALL of your uniforms when you got there? how much was it, and are there any sort of payment plans/allowances? Or do you have to pay it all upfront? if the website is speaking the truth (~$3500 + $1000), I'd be having to pay the amount of my student loans lol

Considering everyone else has been asking for feedback on their qualifications, I think I'll do the same. I took the OAR yesterday, but haven't heard back from my recruiter (though, she wasn't there when I took it). I scored a 48, was hoping I'd score higher, but didn't realize how badly I'd do...
