November Intel Board

Badger, Thanks bro. I am supposed to retake it before the 1st of the year. Going to study like a madman over X-mas break and hopefully get a higher score and re-submit.

Biggest thing I can say is really study on the Math. I was not much of a math guy in high school/college (I have a History degree!) so I really needed to study it hard but it is the one part that is averaged into every score i'm pretty sure. If you can boost the math skills you boost your score in all areas.
 
Goob, yes sir and I received whatever the highest marks were for the interview (thats what the recruiter said). Goob, what score is competitive for Intel BDCP?
 
I had a 7/8/9 74 on the ASTB and didn't get picked up the two times I applied for OCS. Selection for Intel is truly on the "whole person" concept. Low marks in any one area can be enough to push you out.
My self-assessment was that my motivational statement was lacking on the first two packages and finishing my degree at University of Phoenix didn't help.

However I was selected for a Direct Commission the first time up. I totally revamped my statement and I had started working full time in the Intel field (after 5 years in the Navy Reserves as an Intelligence Specialist)

The points I'm trying to make:
1 - From my experience, no single part of the application makes you a shoe in, but can make you uncompetitive.
2 - Don’t give up. Keep working towards your goal.
