I’m baffled at some of the stats I see from prospects. “I have a 5.0 in Quantum Engineering, run a 5 minute mile and a half, built a race car in high school, my dad is a senator and I have a LOR from Admiral Nimitz. Do I have a chance???”
GEEZ man, how competitive is it? As a MECEP we even had some questionables.

exNacyOffRec said it best. I know the selection has been really good. But would not count on it.
Right. Ill See How it goes. I only have one more chance at the ASTB.
Well good luck! Just put in the time! You know what to expect, you can do this!
thank you. i have been following the recent trends for the boards and prior service. Hopefully they will stay in my favor. But hope for the best and prepare for the worst.
Looking at other forums the selection rate shows you have a good chance with your current scores. Maybe your GPA is a factor?
I hope not. I did most of my school before I joined. Finished it 5 years after joining. Finished on the Deans list but it wasn't much I could do to raise it at that point. We will see on the 25JAN board.
Do you have any study tips for each section? I recently just tested and scored a 39 4/6/4 on my first attempt.
So my second test I scored a 69 9/9/8. Just remember where you struggled on the original exam and focus. I used Kyle's guide, barrons, trivium and another book from amazon. Watched lots of youtube videos on pertinent subject matter (the Navy posts a list of topics). I learned as much as I could under those topics. Created my own UAV section and have a throttle and controls. Read entire FFA handbook and studied a top a Naval info based on concepts I remembered from the first time.
I spent every waking moment I was not at work cramming. Developed a study plan and followed it to the T. It is not a tough test, but a tricky test. Since you just took it, it is fresh in your mind. I think I got a little of everything when I took the test.
Thanks for the feedback man, I really appreciate it. Scoring that low was a huge bummer, so now I’m trying to get only 9/8’s.
No problem! If you have specific questions, I will do my best to answer them. You can get the score you want, you know what to expect!
Thanks man, I’d love to get in contact with you, is there any way to privately message on this website? (I’m new lol)
