Dear all,
This is my first post, and I have been reading this site for over a year now. I know everyone hates the "what are my chances" and believe me I have searched through posts for hours and hours.
I have been working with my oso for over a year and just feel alittle defeated and dont want to get my hopes up just to get let down again. Anyways...
Im a...
Male
Native American
27 y.o.
300 PFT
2.75 GPA
96 ASVAB
6/6/5 56 ASTB
DI Scholarship athlete (CC & track)
Lots of community service
Officer in Fraternity
SGA representative
LOR are all good (3 congressman that were Marines)
3 waivers Misdemeanor tresspassing, admission to Marijuana, Age (I will be just passed 27.5 at commissiong if selected for OCC 209)
I was a non select for ground 208 with a 300 pft. Other than doing more community service and switching to air there really is nothing for me to do to improve my application.
My OSO said that I will have a better shot at air since the selection rate is higher. Not sure how much being old will have an effect.
About what % of air applicants get 300 pft?
Are my three waivers making me dead in the water with the current circumstances?
Will me reapplying carry alot of weight with the selection board?
If I do not get selected for 209 should I try again for air or switch to reserve?
If someone knows for sure I will not get selected due to gpa or waivers should I switch to reserve now?
Also Im the only air contract being submitted from my OSO if that makes any difference, and Im in the Eastern Region.
I appreciate any thoughtful advice.
Thank you.
