Box 15 on the ASPR is remarks boosting your application, ie: clubs, sports, etc. I reported mine on the NASIS, my OR, and to the people at MEPS. It was my only one and was in the high 200s. Zoned out driving with my foot on the acceleration. Never again.

No, I haven't gotten around to read any of his books, but he is living proof that anyone can accomplish anything. Also, another video to keep your mind busy. The F/A-18's vs F-35. Thought this was hilarious.

In terms of motivation, here's a video created from the speech that my hero Arnold Schwarzenegger gave at USC. And an ESPN special. Get pumped.

No, we aren't trolling. Everyone's OR's are giving us different answers, so it's impossible for us to know a date. We just have to wait until next week to see if theres a board, if not, then by process of elimination, there's no board this month. Then we do the same thing in March until the...

It's within 120 days.

My OR confirmed that theres a board at the end of this month, but doesn't know what day. Being that theres only one week left of this month. It's a good chance its next week.

No idea, unfortunately halfbreed wasn't selected, so it could be 0-6 AW members who also didnt get selected. Everyone else got in.

Remember, there are still applicants that aren't on the forums, lol. For NFO, I think it was 105ish.

You are also an Excel god. I've also been watching PBS's documentary Carrier 239423 times to get hyped up.

You are a god compared to me. If you guys haven't already, you can try drinking a warm glass of water with half/whole lime in the morning before breakfast to burn fat. Or take a spoonful of apple cider vinegar. The former is more manager and tasty.

I've been focusing on other things, so I haven't been putting a lot of effort into my fitness. I've been just doing dumbbell lifting, situps, pushups and "running"..

Heres a public Google Doc Excel sheet that people can put their information on. I added some new people from Alex R's original list. https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Ap1CYUQ-i27cdFpOclNvUVBPM0RYU2hkTF9KYklTbVE#gid=0

I read somewhere that we don't have to go through the flight physical at flight school, because they'll use our physicals from OCS. Unless I am completely wrong, can someone confirm? As far as your actual question, I'm sure we can, but our options depends on the needs of the Navy.

If everything goes smoothly and everyone here gets into the same OCS class, we definitely wouldn't fail as a team.

Guess we know who will be pinning your golden wings at the Winging Ceremony. ;)

It's also Valentines day, so enjoy your date. If you guys are single like me, well..., Happy Singles Awareness Day, enjoy your drink. If a couple months passed by fairly quick since our were submitted, another month/couple of weeks shouldn't be an issue.

I definitely agree with you about military equipment not working as well as they though. I read a couple of articles regarding the NWUs fire test. http://gizmodo.com/navy-work-uniforms-burn-like-paper-so-sailors-will-get-510683575

] 1st Choice: Jets (It's wishful thinking to be the new pilots training for the new Advanced Super Hornet) 2nd Choice: Helos (They look so fun, and you have a crew to talk to)

Doesn't help when the NWUs are flammable too, so woohoo for pilots and flight officers! I will most likely bring two pairs. Because the shoes I'll be coming in with one broken in, and the second pair, not for RLP but when the DI hates me so much for not reaching the standards of athleticism...

Boom, the WHOLE PERSON/PACKAGE CONCEPT was the words I was looking for in my last post. Thanks!

Think of it this way. You know how there are super smart people in your class, but outside of the academic sphere, they are a total klutz. Not saying the people scoring 9's are klutz, heck they might be a perfect person (looks, money, smarts, athletic ability, street smarts). But just a way to...

I realized that my statement had a crap ton of spelling errors and grammar mistakes. I believe my OR corrected them.

I would get it n ASAP, as in by Friday. Also, I asked my OR if there was a board this month. Here's his response.

Here was my motivational statement for my application. Too late to make any corrections, but as long as it helps someone. Also, that box on the APSR looks small, but man does it take a lot of paragraphs to fill. ____________ Being a first generation child of my family born in United States, I...

So I won't be able to break it until 30 days before I have to report? Me and my landlords have a pretty good relationship, and they are pretty pro-military. I told them about the SSCRA, and they understand military service is a legitimate reason to break a lease. I prefer to break my lease as...

You're welcome and another special thanks to utswimmer37 for giving me the format to copy. Everything I am reading is like seeing a Aston Marin in person for the first time. If our assumptions are true, we will get our results first week of March or end of February. The sooner the better, so I...

I understand that under SCRA, civilians entering active duty prior to signing their lease are able to break their lease without any consequences with a 30 days notice before the next rent date. Do you know how early SCRA allows the lease can be broken? Let's say we receive our FS in March...

Seeing all these new posts with high GPAs, more LoR, and slightly higher ASTB scores makes me a nervous turtle. Hopefully I made my leadership abilities clear in my personal statement, lol. Still holding my breath for the a board at the end of this month. Mr. Bee, thank you for your concern...

What worries me is the selection rate due to the upcoming ROTC/NA graduating class. Unless that has a minor effect.

Yeah, I know! My quantitive score for the AFOQT was pretty high, everything else was a disappointment. My hands were literally shaking when I was eating my lunch during the break from brain damage. The ASTB is much more straightforward, and you have a lot of time. Just a little bit more...

Getting your brain fried by the AFOQT all for nothing. Kidding, it definitely made the ASTB easier though.

Screw it, I'm gonna hold my breath. Revive me if anyone hears anything.

That's very impressive and one of the highest OAR score I have ever seen so far. Unless your personal statement is terrible, you have an excellent shot at getting a slot.

I would try to submit everything as soon as possible. We don't really know when the board will meet in March, for all we know they may meet next month. As far as how far in advance, I believe its around a month.

For transcripts, my OR had me go into a local recruiters office to have them printed it out and then they signed it. Then they delivered it to him.

The only thing the OR needs to wait for is the drug results from your urine after MEPS. So typically one to three days.

My OR told me applicant should hear back from the board within 4 month. All I know for sure is that this waiting game is just as intense waiting for a college acceptance letter.

I'm in that same boat. The LCDR who interviewed me didn't complete my appraisal sheet until two weeks after my interview. Oh well.
