I always worked pretty much a half day, we would have a potluck type deal and leave right after lunch.

You can do it. Sorry for the"N" but as you see it is not the scores but the character...seeing a person continue to try builds confidence in those viewing your kit. (I almost said package, lol)

regarding OAR true, but character won't make up for a poor GPA, the GPA is a big part of it.

There is a 6 month wait unless there is a significant change to the application, to be honest your GPA is going to kill you every time, you are .09 above the minimum GPA, you need to do something to bring that up, such as getting a Masters in something, if you ace a Masters when they combine your GPA's it would raise it to just over a 3.0 and that might give you a chance.

I just spoke with my recruiter. He does not have the results yet.

I think prior service members are good with age waivers. The Ls1 I helped with, needed an age waiver and he was pro-recommend yes today.

They won't "dock points" due to age, in my experience a waiver will be given as long as you can be commissioned by the max age (Supply is 31)

i was speaking with a supply commander (who also interviewed me and swore me in) that was on the selection board....
he said if you have any blemish on your record such as debt delinquency, IRS, very minor offenses where cops were involved, etc....that they didn't even bother looking at your package no matter how good your OAR/GPA was.
they turned down someone with a OAR of 73 from Stanford....and they also accepted one with a OAR of 49
they look at the whole character...where you came from...what you have accomplished...business degree prefered...and an unblemished record
ALL candidates are extremely competitive. students with business degrees were the most affected group of the recent recession so there's a lot of them joining the military....they are also one of the better qualified as supply officers
GOOD LUCK

That is very much what has been the standard for years, in most cases what we were told and saw "extremely competitive" equates to great LOR's, relevant degree, very good GPA, and extracurricular activities.
Competitive programs will give applications a quick look to flush who they can to cut the field.
