    What are my chances?

    I applied for all these same things. I am also a prior AD3. I have a 3.4 GPA B.S. in Aeronautics but, I was turned down for supply and amdo. They are really booked communities. I think SWO is too but, I haven't heard from them yet. All in all your stats are fine. I hope the board looks over...

    Number for Contacting Millington, TN

    if that's Ed's number than just keep in mind that he isn't supposed to talk too non-active duty folks. He said it would be keeping the recruiter out of the loop. If you're active then disregard.. man the wait is killing me

    gee man. I'm not into all the politically correct shit but, you do know that we have arab servicemen in the Navy, Army, Air Force, and Marines. in fact the navy has muslim chaplains. there is even a couple of guys in here who are from the middle east. lets be fair to them and not classify all...

    SNAFU

    that's different. he was accepted to BDCP but couldn't get on it because BDCP was filled. I have heard many people who have to go on the wait list. But, as far as applying before you graduate, I was told that you have to be within 6 months of graduation. What does your recruiter say? mine said I...

    hey Adrenaline. how can you apply for ocs without graduating or being six months away? you graduate in 2004 right? my recruiter has told me that I can't apply for anything but BDCP since i'm 9 months out till graduation. is this true? I applied for BDCP and choose supply, SWO, AMDO. I got turned...

    shiiiiite. supply shot me down. My app is at the SWO board now. Doesn't look to good now. If I get turned down then I will keep applying. I am appying to BDCP though, so I guess that it is mega competitive right now. Hey sonny, did you hear anything yet? man the wait is killing me

    Crushed

    I don't think so rush. getting in after getting rejected doesn't mess your chances up. You probably weren't rejected for not being qualified. There was just too many applications. Anyway the miniumums for the ASTB are low. the official ones are like 3,4,4 AQR, PFAR, FOFAR but the board I guess...

    Crushed

    hey man I'm sorry to hear about that man. Don't take getting rejected personally though. There are alot of applications being sent in and they most likely have to turn down qualified people. BDCP isn't looking to hot right now. I applied a month ago and and the only word I've heard is that I got...

    thoughts on war with Iraq

    man I think that they'll "go in..win and leave" just like last time. I think that it will be more of a political victory than anything. I don't see it stopping terrorism though. and as far as Iraqi's appreciating any new regime efforts ... I'd say that's crazy.. after all we did bomb the hell...

    SWO spots?

    well man here is the skinny on that. Number One: It is tough to be a SWO and most people will say that it is a rough job. Number Two: In recent years there was a real low retention rate and the brass was noticing this. They did all kinds of incentives i.e., money, better tours, etc. Number...

    J.D ? you mean a Juris Doctor right? anyway you have to do around 50 curl-ups and at least 29 push-ups also a 14:00 min 1.5 mile run is fine. But, about your citizenship. You can be a naturalized citizen and get commisioned in the U.S. Navy. You'll have to give them your naturalization...

    hey sonny, all the recruiters get a printout of thier guys package status in the morning. They know when certain communities pass you up. They also call Ed Phillips the OCS applications guy and get info from him. Unfortunately Ed can't answer questions if you are not on active duty. man the...

    how long?

    hey sonnyB I think you should redo the prt if you don't get another designator. Then apply again for NFO in a couple of months. One thing I have gotten out of this process is that there are no easy to get jobs in the Navy. AMDO, Supply, SWO are heavily competitive too. AMDO had 23 slots for the...

    I'll just keep applying. I think the Supply board convened on Wed. Man if they don't give you supply then they're dumb. I mean a 3.8 in accounting! thats fucking hard to get. The best of luck to you sonny. They have 137 slots for Supply this year. they have/had 23 for AMDO. I guess AMDO is as...

    I just got shot down from AMDO. My package went to the Supply board on wednesday. I don't think i'll get supply though. I have an aeronauctics degrees. Supply and SWO are my two other choices. I want SWO more but, was told that its futile to apply for it. man the wait is killing me

    how long?

    no he said that they have a big office and that its always pretty busy. He was pretty adamant about SWO being closed to OCS intial accessions. About SWO, being 62 percent full... I think that they are never full because they have to give slots to ROTC and Academy guys. I hope that I'm wrong...

    hey man. i hear you. try supply officer or something like that. Those are respectable jobs too. I mean if you go SNA or SNFo chances are you will be much closer to the battle roles. now you might end up a P3 pilot and just chase subs. man the wait is killing me

    on thing to point out here Meridiana is that there is a very high "risk" that you'll be at sea or deployed for extended periods. even the 6 month deployments carry smaller "dets" between them. as a pilot of a P 3 you may be gone for a few weeks here and there in between long deployments.
