Your GPA is great, especially in a STEM major. You want to be 80+ on Pilot and above 50 on everything else. Idk if you've taken the TBAS before, but you want your PCSM to be as high as possible. There's a lot more that goes into your package than your AFOQT/GPA and pilot slots are extremely...

Finish tech school then follow the application exactly as you would if you weren't a prior. The biggest difference now is that your unit CC will provide a nomination as opposed to a representative. Additionally, your supervisor and one additional officer will provide letters of recommendation...

Probably an anomaly here, but I'm a prior who is weeks away from completing a STEM BS. The 4-year commitment that won't count towards my TIS is one of my big hang-ups at the moment. I'm also exploring other options, like my (guard) unit's annual UPT board and also trying (unsuccessfully) to...

This is something that weighs into my indecisiveness. This also applies to my other route, as by applying to a Guard/Reserve unit, I’ll know what airframe I’m assigned before stepping foot on Maxwell. Despite this, I understand that by attending USAFA I will open a world of opportunities...

Congrats! Glad to see 1N0 Guard Bums representing here lol. In all seriousness, you earned that appointment; like Astroneerbro said, it's clear that you put a significant effort into earning an appointment. Also you must've gotten to beautiful San Angelo right around the time I was leaving...

Thanks man, I appreciate it. Just for everyone's SA: my CC was actually notified last week, but hadn't been in until yesterday. This seems to coincide with what Astroneerbro's adviser had said about the board review of LEAD applicants. As another note, I finished my application stupid early, so...

Absolutely. It's a tough decision and I have a lot to consider, but at least all the doors open to me lead down good paths🤷‍♂️.

Haha, thanks all, and as backed by popular demand: Academics: SAT: 1310 (M-660 R-650) HS GPA: 3.89 (UW) 4.98 (W) Class Rank: 6/160 HS Coursework: 7 APs, 1 Dual-Enrollment College GPA: 4.0 College Major: BS Computer & Network Security, Minor in Mathematics College Credits: 110/125, though they...

90) colucci / Self / No LOA / 18-Feb-20 / Undecided / N/A / Reserve / Direct Appointment

Well guys, CC just called me in to give me the news. Direct appointment, but still undecided on whether I'll accept. Hopefully you all get word soon too!

Hey guys, what kinda progress are y’all making on your apps?

No, the matrix in Table 2.6 does not correlate Note 7 as pertaining to LEAD, but item 17 is stating that you must submit ACT/SAT scores. Based on the stats @Jen2277 shared earlier in this, I think it is safe to assume that admissions weights their decision heavily on your High School academics.

https://dodmerb.tricare.osd.mil/Content/APPLICANT%20REFERENCE%20DOCUMENT.pdf You can go to the med group, but the process will be more smooth when you go through people who are familiar with it. Idk what the contracted clinics around Dover look like, but I went to the one in right off of Rt 1...

Mine updated to candidate on 02JUL but I got moved to Applicant 04MAR so obviously YMMV and would be a better question for your counselor, but while you’re here, would you mind sharing your stats from last year for reference?

Thought I’d share some good write ups if anyone wanted to read them: https://www.reddit.com/r/AirForce/comments/8fvtv3/the_lead_program_application_from_someone_whos/ https://www.reddit.com/r/AirForce/comments/a1uj6v/update_from_lead_program_and_usafa_preparatory/

Hey, I’m a 3-level and felt the same way until my OIC approached me about this. Good leadership should recognize that this isn’t you trying to flake on your responsibilities, but you trying to better yourself. Talk to your supervisor, let them know this is something you’d like to do and get them...

Thanks for sharing this. In the notification, did it instruct your son to visit DoDMETS in order to submit his initial paperwork? Only reason I ask is that I have submitted my triggering item yesterday, and have DoDMERB access today, but not DoDMETS, and have no available forms on DoDMERB, but I...

Anyone have their portal open yet?

Wait for your SAT score to come out, enter it into the PCQ and go from there. In the meantime, get your CC/1Sgt or Supervisor/OIC (or some other officer) aware of your intentions and that you’ll need letters of endorsement. Begin the AF1786. You’ll be good, the packages are just about to open up.

Mind sharing your SAT/ACT scores/HS GPA/Leadership/Volunteering/College and any other significant metrics? (Anyone else reading this, please feel free to share too) Also I was concerned about getting prep schooled, but after reading what some other users had to say, my outlook on it changed...
