How did the application make it through the QA process? I was under the impression that you can't even put it down as a choice unless you pass the PT test.
Well man I hope everything works out, you have a great kit..sucks to be given this news so close to decision time. Let us know how it turns out, if it doesn't pan out good luck in February.

Nice, a lot of good ASTB scores for this selection board. Did you get word that you made it to the selection board? Some guys applied but then were told they were moved to February.
If you made it, good luck man...tomorrow is the big day!

ASTB: 55 6/6/6
Applying: NFO
Degree: BA Biblical Studies, 3 hrs towards an MA in philosophy; studied a mini term at the Green College Oxford University, England in Philosophical Theology
GPA: 3.33
LORS: Several retired Col's in the AF, a retired Major/F-16 pilot AF, Ret. Col. AF F-16 pilot/flight school instructor and my flight instructor, and two of my bosses within our corporate hierarchy.
Other: I'm a licensed irrigator in the state of Texas. I work for the largest landscaping company in the US, the Brickman Group, running the irrigation half of our branch and maintaining a work-order budget of 500k+. I've served in the church in various leadership positions, teaching and music. Like most here, I've done volunteer work, have had a few minor traffic violations (no blinker, rolling stop sign, speeding). My brother is currently at USAFA.
I have my PPL and 75 hours and am hoping to get my complex and hp checks, soon.
PRT...I hate running. 75 su 60 pu 1.5 in 10:27 I ran against some SEAL recruits.
All in all, I just want to be an officer and hopefully a naval aviator.
My name is Levi. I am from Texas. Did I cover all the bases? And did I post this in the right spot or am I supposed to create an "introduction" post?

Before the board convenes they should release an "at board" list. Its essentially a list of all the people who will be reviewed that month. Just call your processor and he/she should be able tell you if your at board. Good luck!

Alive and kicking...sort of.
Depends on several things...first, are you regular OCS or BDCP? OCS boards only see the first 50 applications at the board, and then they may pro-req (professionally recommend) 5, 25, etc. From there, almost 99% are final select, with those few with background issues, medical waivers, etc. fix their problems before moving on.
Second, what pipeline are you (NA, NFO, SWO...)? Each one has an allotted amount of slots per fiscal year, and depending on the previous boards (the 5 or 25 thing) they may need to accept more or less this time around. It'll vary, so get the best package you can together and apply...and if you don't get in the first time, try, try again.

Today's the big day gentlemen (and ladies). It was hard to sleep last night. I hope we find out soon and good luck to us all.
Oh yeah, I wish more people who are on this board but have not yet weighed in would say what's up. Surely it's not just 8-9 of us.
I couldnt hardley sleep last night either. Today I've just kept my nose to the grindstone at work just to make it go by faster. So far its working!
It does seem that people arent speaking up a whole lot in this thread. Hopefuly the few who are are the strong applicants, but thats probably just wishful thinking:icon_tong
