Hello Sirs,
I'm shipping out to RTC Great Lakes on Nov. 6th as a Nuke Recruit, and was wondering if anyone on these forums either is or knows someone who got selected for the SNA option for STA-21, and how much harder it is to get selected for the Pilot/NFO option over the nuke option (which I understand to be streamlined for students currently in the pipeline, please correct me if I'm wrong.) I see from the other post in this forum that there were 40 Pilot Selectee's and 40 Nuke Selectees, but that doesn't really help me out much since I have no idea how many people out of the >700 put in for one of these two communities.
I tried asking around other sites about how often a nuke student gets selected and whether being a nuke student (with the right grades in the pipeline of course) puts you at an advantage for selection or not, but it would seem that most of the people that hang around those other forums are either Nuke Enlisted or Nuke officers and display an overwhelming bias towards the nuke option, and I'd like to get some input from the other side of the coin.
Thank you all very much for your time, I really appreciate it!
