Pilot Hopeful

[SMR02]

Greetings all!

I’m currently aspiring to eventually become a navy pilot but for some reason I can’t stop overthinking the whole thing.

A little about my background, I’m currently 22 years old and possess an Airframe and Powerplant license. I have a background in aviation maintenance. I also possess an associates degree with an GPA of 3.1 and should hopefully be done with my bachelors in about a year and a half.

Something to note is I was also diagnosed with ADHD at age 11 and was prescribed medication which I haven’t taken since I was about 12 or 13. I’ve never received any kind of accommodations in school.

Am I just overthinking this whole process?

I think you will need a waiver, but don’t quote me. Check out the flight doc thread this has been asked before.

I’m not sure what it is you think you’re overthinking, you didn’t really ask any questions. The ADHD diagnosis will need a waiver but if you’ve been off meds for a while and it hasn’t affected your academic performance, it shouldn’t be a show-stopper. The A&P license is neither here nor there for OCS, nor is your associates. Your undergrad GPA will matter, the ASVAB matters more. Review the OCS and related threads, especially the stickied ones. Good luck!
