Talked to my recruiter today and he said that my package has a date of July 20th, 2009 - meaning my package is there and all packages usually have to be in by at least the 25th of the month in order to be seen for the following month. So my package has been approved for August boards it sounds...

I'll buy the first round, but someone else has gotta buy the second... I'll take a double Gentleman Jack and Coke

This really sucks. I'm taking it one day at a time, but it still sucks. Our fates have been or will be decided soon, and there is nothing anyone can do, but wait. Anyone want to go to the bar and drink until the results come out?

When I'm not teaching part-time, working out, or running, I've taken to beating every single Xbox 360 game I own along with teaching myself Russian. It's helping pass the time - which is ALOT since I'm unemployed haha :icon_tong Find something new to do

I would go to a doctor before MEPS. MEPS doctors are not there to be your friends or give you a diagnosis. They basically try to find anyway possible to DQ you. Also you'll have to duck-walk at MEPS and if you can't duck walk, you will fail your entire physical. (That is what the doctors...

No, not too optimistic. However if you jinx this, so help me I may have to hurt you....:icon_rage

Wow, I'm amazed (but not really) that people are still responding to this post. You would think some can put 2 and 2 together....

I remember that, but I was like 6 when it happened....so in like the late 80's. Yes all their planes are 3 across on each side. Some of the planes have a missing seat by the door in the exit rows, so one person will have MORE legroom. I love Southwest and they are my preferred carrier....but...

This is the week.... So we've made it to mid-july, for the most part, with the board (hopefully) meeting on July 15th. Good luck to everyone and here's to all of us seeing each other in OCS very soon! :icon_zbee

Wooo same here! :D

There really is no way to tell that if you get X score you are guaranteed acceptance. If you read some of the board threads, you'll see that some people got selected with lower OAR/overall ASTB scores and those with higher ones didn't get selected and vice versa. The boards look at the...

First, talk to your recruiter as he/she will have all these answers. Also do a search on this site as all your questions have been answered before. I took the ASTB like 4 weeks ago and didnt think it was that bad at all, but I also have an aerospace engineering degree, so the majority of the...

Oh trust me I know that....I only meant that whatever I'll be doing as a Naval Officer will guaranteed trump what I was doing at my previous job as a civilian, staring at computer screens all day, or tracing electronic diagram. I have no idea what a fitrep is, but its gotta be better than...

Also to the OP, if you want a view from the outside looking in, I am busting my ass or have busted my ass the past 8 months to FINALLY get to the point of having the board look at my app in the next few weeks. Let me tell you. I went and started work full-time after I graduated in 2007 at a...

I would wholeheartedly disagree with this statement. I understand that you may be nervous or even scared of what your recruiter may think, but at the same time, you owe it to him/her as well. Recruiters invest A SHITTON of time into those candidates they feel can succeed and will get accepted...

Yeah I guess I did answer my own question, but those are very good points as well. I had no idea that Military orders allow you to break a lease. I read over my lease again and found the military clause in there that I need to study a bit more. And McBuff, thank you as I did not know that...

I tried searching for this and couldn't find it, so if someone knows where the answer is, please post it. I was wondering about what to do with my apartment if I get accepted after July boards. (Cut me some slack, I have a TON of time to think about stuff) So anyways, while at OCS for 12...

Just a few things of random advice.... GO BLUE!!!! :D Class of 2007 Grad in Aerospace Engineering. I didn't do NROTC but had a few friends in Aero with me who did it. Both are LTJG's right now and one is in the CEC and the other is in flight school going down the Strike pipeline as a pilot...

It's usually around the 15th of the month or so that the board meets. But that can be give or take a few days obviously. Decisions are usually out around 21st or so and onwards after that depending on when they met. Check out the June and May board threads and you'll get an idea of when...

Caesar's and Mirage are the best of those groups and TI isn't bad either. I would also check out Monte Carlo (they have 3 pools) as well....

OH one more thing....go to Minus 5 in Mandalay Bay. Its a bar made entirely of ice. EVERYTHING is made of ice and its really f*cking cool. Not to mention, as per usual, the chicks who work there are all ridiculously hot. You can only stay in there for about 30-45 mins, but you'll be drunker...

As far as strip clubs, my favorite is Spearmint Rhino. I ALWAYS have fun when I'm there.....but you will spend ALOT of money there so don't stay too long ha Favorite Nightclubs: PURE - Caesar's Palace. Get there early or you will be in line for 2 hours (however it is worth it......trust me)...

What up everyone, I'm up for July boards as well. 24/M (Although will be 25 on June 29 :)) 1st Choice: SNA 2nd Choice: NFO 3rd Choice: SWO B.S.E in Aerospace Engineering from Univ. of Michigan Current M.S. student in Aerospace Engineering Sciences @ CU Boulder GPA: 3.54 ASTB: 62 6/6/6 LOR...
