What’s up man, it’s been a minute.
Yeah I had to do the book and glasses for my flight physical too. At Meps when I joined, they had me test DP on some machine

This right here is the way to go. I asked my eye doctor to administer the dot test on me and he cleared me once I passed. I just had to give my recruiter the note from the visit.
Hey guys retaking my ASTB tomorrow. Scored a 63 7/5/7 on the last one. I bought a stick and throttle like the one they give us for the test and have been practicing that a bit. I think that's what bombed my score last time. Any last minute advice y'all can share would be much appreciated.
Also, does anyone have any input on how age factors into the whole selection process? I'm pushing the upper limits and turning 30 in November.

I would use the Jantzen simulator on the lowest difficulty on the longest time and keep ramping it up when it gets easy.
I would start at medium and do 60 seconds of that and then go up one difficulty each time at 60 seconds until max difficulty. Went from a 6 to a 8 PFAR

Age shouldn't be a factor. Just make sure you know the UAV compass trick, practice Jantzen, and prioritize the listening during the PBM. The first time I took the test, the HOTAS was dogshit and I couldn't track the throttle, so make sure you get comfortable with the stick and throttle during the practice session.

1) Take your time and READ ALL THE DIRECTIONS
2) Bring water and snacks
3) Meditate or take some deep breaths if you're feeling nervous
Man the book for colorblind that I had to do was faded. I missed like two I had to look at 10 different ways to finally be able to see it. Had a different book later and was able to see clear as day
So, I went to clarify this with my recruiter this morning.
I said, "just so I am understanding correctly the waiver you were talking about getting is just an extension waiver for my medical stuff, right? and not a waiver for my actual depth perception?"
He responded "No, you will get a waiver for your depth perception"
definitely confused at the moment, is it possible he is submitting me for something else? I have been very clear that I only want SNA. but I was able to move my eye appointment up to tomorrow morning so won't need an extension anymore I guess.

Yeah, you can't waive DP, last thing anyone wants is a guy with no DP trying to land on a CVN.
Even extensions for submission rarely happen.
I would make sure that if you want SNA that SNFO is nowhere on your application.
Smh don’t remind me
How long has cnal had it in their possession. I’m in the same boat but different situation.
