Do you guys know if they tend to weigh certain stats more than the other? I have heard that the ASTB pilot score is a HUGE weight.

I'm assuming that they look at the PFAR score if you're only applying for SNA and the FOFAR score if only applying for SNFO, but I would assume every part is weighed pretty equally. Who knows how navy logic works though.

I'm wondering how the AQR plays into it. Do any other jobs in the Navy require the ASTB?

Unfortunately, due to a medical clearance issue that has since been resolved, my application ended up being held from this board. I'm submitted for review in July. Feeling a little gutted by that news, but looking forward to pursuing this dream after the next board.

Best of luck to everyone! I'll get there when I get there.

I know the feeling. I literally cleared medical and submitted my application the day they were due. Best of luck!

Although I don't know what percentage ASTB / GPA count here's the consensus:

ASTB is the biggest weight for SNA / SNFO (by how much I don't know)
GPA is the next biggest

(In general) Personal Motivation Statement / LOR are not looked at unless there's a tie between 2 applicants.

Lastly, the board apparently spends mere seconds / minutes per application. It's been said they're very busy people.

Seriously haha. What are the odds? It's a small school.

It happens more than you think, one of my schools was small, around 2,000 students, I had 3 people that were applying at the same time from there, 2 were accepted. I had another school with 1400 students, 2 applied at the same time (1 referred another) they were both accepted into the same program.

From what I've been told it's about 2-3 minutes per applicant
