holistic approach? I know that there were thousands more applicants this year than there had been in the 20 years before...but what was that ONE thing that was the real hot button? Someone knows... Was it the SAT score that was the primary factor in the application process? We're just...

it's too bad... I think that it's too bad that my DS was reverse discriminated against so that quotas could be filled. I guess the USCGA budget may get an increase next year! What happened to the holistic approach? I guess that the holistic approach is only if you meet the criteria that...

Wow! Thank you all very much. Trust me...we do let our DS work stuff out on his own as this is very important. We know this and it's difficult when he asks us questions that we don't know the answers to. Luigi...you are most correct about the Median score terminology. My mistake.:smile: I...

I apologize in advance for this long post. DS just noticed that DODMERB has him listed as "Qualified" as of today. Could that information not being in the packet when reviewed be cause for a deferral letter? I don't think so, but I thought that I'd ask anyway. We're just trying to make...

DS got a deferral letter today. :frown: Is there a chance that he would find anything out before April regarding an appointment at this point? He would like an interview, but can't seem to get one. In Ohio...any AAP that could lend insight? Thank you very much.

Luigi, Thank you very much for the great explanation! As always...:thumb: Semper Appreciation!

Would someone please explain what the Genesis 2 day program was (is) all about? Thank you... Just curious.:smile:

no, just wondering... I know that all Junior boys in our school take the ASVAB. Wasn't sure if it ws used for any other reason than enlisted job placement. :smile:

Does anyone other than a recruiter consider ASVAB scores? Just wondering.

Buffalo, Thank you...I hope you received my PM back to you. I'm new here and I hope that I had responded correctly.

DS had wanted to go to AFA...but decided in early 2010 to just try for an appointment to the USCGA after a visit to CGA and considering the mission of both services. New AFA ALO in the area is now calling and he wants to get DS to start the process. I think that it's too late now and...

Thank you... Thank you all for your answers. I guess we are just excitied about the opportunity and looking for glimmers of hope. We'll just have to sit tight and be patient.

Everyone? I guess that I should have asked...Is it a good sign that you get orders for a DODMERB physical? Meaning...Does it sound like they liked all the other information submitted and want to know more? Or, does everyone, even those that may not be as qualified get the DODMERB physical?

Does everyone get orders for a DODMERB Physical?
