SWO Board 09 NOV 20

[Goat_class125]

Thank you for your reply! That's what I thought too. I was advised to go SWO so I can work my way to PAO by officers and my recruiter. I went to Virginia Commonwealth University. I unfortunately only had one course of math required (I tested out of math for college and went straight to Stat so Supply was out.) You need at least 2 semesters of math or a calc course at the college level for Supply.
I was confused and upset by this prescreen, maybe its just super competitive this board, so definitely wanted to hear what others know.

Read the PA for the communities you are interested in, not only does Supply require math courses they also prefer certain types of degrees and that board is particular on who they select but it’s not impossible to get selected without that type of degree. I would have still applied anyway for both communities.

Go to another NRD and find a good OR.

Okay, thank you. This may sound silly of me, how would I go about finding another? This new recruiter is new from the one I was originally working with. He became off duty from recruiting right before I submitted this package

I'm in NJ, but closet to the NYC area for Officer recruiting. My original recruiter worked from both the Woodbridge station and the New York City station

Try a NRD in Philadelphia

And find one that’s closer to you other than the one you were working with

Thank you so much! I've been through the ones that are closet to me which was the NYC one and I even did the other one, so I'm gonna give the NRD in Philly a call

Good Morning,
Question- What documents have to be sited and certified as true copies? Also, should all the documents included in miscellaneous sections be labeled by enclosure 1,2,3, etc....? Thank you and have a great day!

I see it’s nothing wrong with asking a question but I read the instruction 1420. Which said your transcripts needed to certified. The comnavinst also speaks about transcripts but I believe it’s more on the recruiter/civilian side. What’s your email I’ll send you my package.

I read the sections pertaining to my program over and over- maybe I’m overlooking or overthinking it.

We’re currently not working everyday so I won’t be able to receive it from work email.
Thank you

I mention the instruction because I could be wrong and so could someone else even though our intent is to be right, with that being said I sent you an email.

Creating this post for the upcoming 09NOV20 Navy SWO PROBOARD. I have read that they only spend a few minutes looking at packages. That seems counter productive to their FAQ Guidance on NPC which states getting recognized for SOQ and Volunteering boosts competitiveness for example. If they only read the transcripts portion how will they ever determine sustained superior performance? Kind of discouraging. Good luck to everyone out there. It will be my 1st board as well.
