October/November SNA & SNFO Boards

[iFly14]

Also glad he didn't make this board. But let's be honest...there's a lot more to a kit than just scores. Good luck...it's ideal if we all get in!

I agree. Nothing is a given, just make your self as competetive as possible and hope for the best!

I am going to be one of those people whose LORs and other variables have to sway the board to select me with only a 6/6/6. Fortunately I have seen applicants get SNA with 6/6/6 so I know I have a chance.

If it makes you feel better, I am jealous of your scores.....

Just a question...does a Pro-Rec Y pretty much mean that you're accepted to OCS? Or is there anything else to get "acceptance" after this? Supposing SF86 and medical goes through (but if I passed the first flight physical, why wouldn't I pass this one?).

 

[Lancerr1]

It means you're cleared for OCS, but not necessarily for flight school. You'll need to pass another physical to be qualified for flight school. If you're not, you'll probably be given another job. I say probably because they don't guarantee that. The other alternative is they drop you from the program.

Basically what Lancerr1 said. Your MEPS physical was not a flight physical, it was an "is-this-person-medically-qualified-to-serve-in-the-military-and-are-they-basically-qualified-(vision, mostly)-to-be-a-pilot" physical. Pro-Y means your stats are good enough to get in, and you will be in as long as you can get a clearance and pass medical and XYZ on your end of things. Most people who get Pro-Y are good to go. I wouldn't worry about it too much.

I had a full flight physical done at Andrews AFB...it started as a standard commissioning physical, but my recruiter decided to go ahead and have them do a flight physical and submit with that. I'm certain it was a flight physical because I had to fill out an entirely new and slightly different packet when they switched it over... Will that speed up my FINSEL?

Doubt it. I'm not a processor or an OR but I would say it has more to do with the amount of people in front of you.

I am glad that this board is only TWO DAYS away. I have been waiting for IDC results for some time now. The long wait sucks. Hopefully these results come out within 1~2 weeks.

That's basically what I did. I went to NAMI here at NAS Pensacola. It was an intense physical, but it left me confident I'll have no issues with the physical done at OCS.

Take a deep breath and relax. Navy is hurry up and wait so get used to it.

I had mine in 6 days

Cheers everyone, stoked to have my kit at boards for Wednesday. SNA applicant with 63 7/6/7. Hoping for Pro Rec Y.

what did the flight physical entail...

it's still not Wednesday :/

Your physical won't affect your Finsel at all because the Finsel is unrelateld to the flight physical except that it tells you that you'll have to go through one. You would normally receive your flight physical upon reporting to OCS. So it's not a prereq to your Finsel. Requesting a penciled in date might potentially speed up the process however. You'll need a good reason though.

I hope results are posted soon!

Just curious, if you get a flight physical for your MEPS workup, do you get a physical again at OCS or do they simply forward your documents to NAMI?
