Well, just found out the cryptology boards decision on me, no prorec. This site is invaluable.

For those who are thinking about applying heres some information on me so you can maybe gauge yourself. I was applying to go to OCS in 2008.
3.3 GPA in Computer Engineering at UCSC
54/5/5/5 on the ASTB
Perfect recommendation from a Lt. Col in Cryptology
Some really nice letters from faculty, coworkers, and friends
Eagle Scout, Church leader and various leadership positions.
The most shocking thing about all this is that in the entire board they didnt pick anyone. There were ten of us according to the site I linked above. Also, that site shows the Navy's current recruiting goals and related information. They are only picking 25 cryptologists per year, 3 of which can be in BDCP, from what I gathered. I had no idea it would be THAT competitive. Oh well.
