Chances for Information Professional.

[Panthers919]

Hello Everyone,

I’m planning to submit an Officer Package this year with the Information Professional Designation as my #1 pick. I was hoping to get some insight into how I stack up and what my realistic chances are of being selected. Thank you in advance! My package is as follows

4.0 GPA with B.S. in Cybersecurity (math up to precalc)

48 OAR (not great but only have one attempt remaining)

Security+, Network+ Certifications (would appreciate if someone could tell me if these actually hold any weight)

Prior OS2 with MP and EP evals

You are competitive; especially with your undergraduate education, GPA, and CompTIA certs. For your OAR, there is hope. I know several fellow IP officers who had similar scores (under 50). They got a waiver and sent it. Just make sure you got all the ducks in a row with TIS and whatnot. Maintaining MPs and EPs in your evals definitely won’t hurt either. Good luck.
