Is the 30-day ASTB merge score deadline hard? I didn't know there even was such a deadline when I took the OAR 3 months ago, and now I'm considering SNA/SNFO... scored a 70 on the OAR but had to do quite a bit of prep, and I doubt I'll be able to replicate the score.

Yes, it’s clearly defined in the SECNAVINST. If over 30 days you must retake the whole exam again.

Hey y’all, my I-SEL packet was submitted early December, and I have yet to hear back from my recruiter. Does anybody know the average wait time for immediate select, and why it’s taking this long? I heard it’s on a rolling basis & the holiday break could have delayed it, but
I’m growing a little anxious. There’s a lot of life changes happening, and a secured date would help a lot right now.

Thanks in advance!

Sometimes the ISEL process isn’t immediate, especially if it’s for a closed program.

My package got submitted November 23rd and heard back January 8th. I was feeling the exact same way and my mom was asking me every day if I’d heard back lol. Hopefully you get word soon!
