Would echo what @villo0692 's been saying - no idea what is going on with my package either (supposedly also moved to May/Aug/whatever). Keep those options open.
First, congrats con the great scores. Second....I got rolled over to the next board, originally applied for the Jan25 one....my recruiter said she didn't think I was going to be looked at in the May board, didn't tell me why, but I did think that it was a bit odd given that the board is taking place almost 4 months from now, in any case, try to get all you stuff ready and send your package as soon as possible, you still have plenty of time before the cutoff date for the May 24 board....in case it is a regular board...idk man, all this shit's kinda weird lately, I'd just say apply and be patient....keep your options open, some people apparently have been in this site for over a year for several reasons, although with your scores I would not be surprised is big navy pushes you through, good luck!

A CPO that is a full time OR has the same access as any officer and often a full time OR that is a CPO gets better info as all the PM's at NRC are fellow CPO's.Spoke to my recruiter just now and he said he doesn’t know/hasn’t heard anything about that as he’s not privy to that information.
Is your recruiter an officer? Mine’s a Chief so I’m wondering if it’s just information he can’t access..
I'm no MEPS expert or anything, but to me, from the wording, it sounds like they just neglected to do a manifest refraction at MEPS. I don't think that it would mean that you have to go get glasses.Was not able to make the Jan board because I had MEPS pretty late. Other than that my package is pretty much complete with a waiver pending.
My OR requested me to go to a civilian eye doctor to get a full eye exam because my vision technically does not "correct" to 20/20 since I do not wear glasses. My near sighted uncorrected vision is 20/20 for both eyes and my far sighted uncorrected vision is 20/25 and 20/30. It doesn't correct to 20/20 cause I do not currently wear glasses or contacts. Do they just want me to get glasses or contacts at this point? Thought that the worst you can have for your vision is 20/40 uncorrected.
Below is an attachment of what NRC sent to my OR
Hey guys, my recruiter said he just talked to "command" (something to that effect) and confirmed that I won't be able to apply until the August board, because the may board is only looking at waiver applicants/rollovers or something. Still plenty of conflicting info on this sub so I would take it with a grain of salt, but it looks like it's at least going to determine my timeline.

I mean yeah....but the selection for SNA did seem significantly lower than say, the November board....there's a much higher number of SNFOs accepted so far who had SNA as their first choice....even though I would be happy with SNFO anyways, I would like to be in a board where the selection quotas are "the norm" if you will...rather than fall prey of the circumstances and be evaluated in the board that JUST happen to select very few pilots....does that make sense?
edit: Most of these SNFOs had a higher PFAR than FOFAR too
I messaged a friend/acquaintance of mine that is in recruiting and he responded "not comfortable answering this in text, will call you later".Hey guys, my recruiter said he just talked to "command" (something to that effect) and confirmed that I won't be able to apply until the August board, because the may board is only looking at waiver applicants/rollovers or something.

the plot thickens...I messaged a friend/acquaintance of mine that is in recruiting and he responded "not comfortable answering this in text, will call you later".
I have theories on what this could mean but I will wait for his call.
