How come you are not going for the Cyber Warfare board? I'm trying to study for it but the stuff is hard. Also what does Pro-Rec-Y mean?

Well. I thought about MCWO, but I ultimately decided to go the route of Cryptologic Warfare and apply to the August IWC board. The reason is that CW deploys way more than MCWO, is adjacent to Cyber, and I can potentially be a direct support officer for submarines doing SIGINT or EW, but honestly, any platform would be cool haha. (1st CW, 2nd SWO)

PRO-REC-Y means you were selected.

PRO-REC-Y means you were selected. The idea is that people can see who was accepted for what.

what is the difference between PRO-REC-Y and Pushed at Board?

Honestly, I'm not entirely sure; I think 'pushed at board' means you were put into a board or rushed ahead of others? PRO-REC-Y just means they said yes, and are sending you to OCS. "At-Board" meaning you are in the process of waiting to be selected, "Not-at-board" maybe you aren't in for THAT board yet? And PRO-REC-N just means no from that board.

Pushed is a term used if that applicant missed the board and was pushed to the next one, or if the board was cancelled and they pushed the applicants to the next one. There isn't a "pushed at board", there is "pushed" and "at board" someone probably just accidentally put the 2 together.
