11JUL17 Pilot/NFO board

[FormerRecruitingGuru]

Yeah I am intrigued at how they make their selection. I would love to be a fly on the wall when the board convenes haha.

See above post.

See above post.

Are the summer boards usually more competitive due to the increase in eligible candidates (college graduates or rising Seniors) compared to any other board? Or does do the quotas for Pilots and NFOs change and vary for every board?

Yeah! I heard the phone conversation between my recruiting office and the NRD office to say that they received my paperwork via email and I was all set for this board. They were just waiting for my medical clearance. Assuming you made it in?

You need to have an approved N3M letter in order to submit. Unless your NRD asked for an extension there's a good possibility...

You will get pro X'd if you put SWO third, needs to be first or second.

There's a rumor going on that NRC is going to axe the "must be second or higher" choices because folks were complaining they were given too few choices as to what programs to pursue.

SNA/SNFO are what I really want. My recruiter told me I could put a third choice and said I would be competitive for SWO so I just put it down. But, I would do SWO without anydoubt if given the chance.

That would be nice, it was funny years ago that the APSR had only 3 choices, then they expanded it to 5 and shortly after many designators wouldn't select you if you didn't put them 1 or 2, it is like they can't keep anything the same for any amount of time.
