Belay my last, I stand corrected.That’s not correct.
I guess my only route is to get waivers? or do I need to apply to something else?

The latter
then it isnt worth my time to take the full test, right?
I have seen people on here get waivers? With the help of me being so close to 27, I feel like a waiver should be within my reach?
well...that explains thatwaivers are for prior service

this is the news I wanted to hearI wouldn't bet on it, but getting an aviation OCS slot through the Marine Corps might be an option if you can put together a package extremely fast and if their board schedule and class dates all lines up right. I believe their age limit is to commission by age 27 + 6 months.
You can also still try for the Air Force/Air National Guard/Air Force Reserve. Their age limit is to enter UPT (pilot training) by your 30th birthday.
Hey all, took the OAR for the first time yesterday. Felt like it kicked me in the teeth but scored a 54. I wanted to score at least a 53 and my OR said it was decent enough to be competitive. I am applying for SWO board in Feb 2019.
MST felt the hardest. Definitely saw more fractional/simplification problems than D=RT. Finished with 6 minutes left. I thought I was taking too long on my math problems. I didn’t see any log problems, saw a couple successive percentage change questions, nothing. Got a ratio/series problem that I seemed to hit a menta road block on. [Sq. Root of 2]: [2] : [2 sq. Root of 2] find the 10th in the series which now seems so simple...
Reading comprehension was as expected... but I didn’t finish in time. The questions just kept coming. Didn’t feel like I had a problem eliminating the wrong answers. Like it says, although something may be true, it doesn’t mean it is right. It has to be within the paragraph you read for it to be the right answer.
Felt like mechanical was a breeze, types of energy compressed, potential, got a few questions of linear velocity and angular velocity, of course gear ratio and only one pulley problem (fixed pulley, how many ‘N’ does he need to pull to raise at a consistent speed), did not see any electrical questions except “what do ohms measure?” I finished with only a few seconds of extra time.
All together I studied a lot on the threads posted here. I have seen some recent people break it down so I don’t need to do it too. I only studied for two weeks, graduated in 2013 with a psych degree so math was my biggest concern.
Thanks for everyone encouraging those to seek their own knowledge. I only feel I didn’t bomb this because I took ownership and respected the process.
On to MEPs!

" [Sq. Root of 2]: [2] : [2 sq. Root of 2] find the 10th in the series which now seems so simple... "
would the answer be 2?
thank you for the review!
