What's the depth perception test like at NAMI? Same as MEPS?

I also had mine done by NAMI (living in Pcola). It was pretty basic, never had to do anything MEPS. Dots and objects raised off the page is all they tested depth perception wise from my recollection.

Did you have to look through a machine and pick which circle looked "raised", or was it like looking at an actual book?

Given the info/GPA/Test Scores/LORs cited above, your package appears to be very competitive.:)

For the OCS (non active duty) applicants, an interview/appraisal isn't needed or even recommended when applying for Pilot/NFO/SWO. GPA/ASTB score continue to be the biggest factors. Remember, with so little time and so many applications, the board probably spends anywhere from 3-5 minutes going over your application. I've seen folks with poor ASTB scores/GPA but O-5/O-6+ interviews still not get selected.

I've got a 58 7/6/7 and a 3.6 GPA (community college/furman university) combined with being a team captain of a division 1 sport but I think that my biggest strengths come from my motivational statement and letters of recommendation. If a board only takes 3-5 minutes on my application is it safe to assume that letters of rec and my motivational statement are things will be just briefly skimmed over and don't hold much if any weight?

They said I needed it for my RE Code Waiver. I did 4 years of college ROTC. Maybe that was why they had me get an interview. To include it as supplemental when the waiver was submitted.
