Hey, all,
Me again with a similar question, updated.
With the fall semester coming to a close, and FTP next semester quickly approaching, I'm starting to get real nervous about EA for SFT '13.
I just had my semester review with the Col. last week, and he said my stats were good. He did not, however, give me a ranking. When I asked how my chances looked for selection, he just reiterated that my stats were good (not sure if he didn't want to deliver bad news, or just didn't want to get my hopes up when its uncertain).
Anyways, my stats are as follows:
Double Major in Int'l/Global Studies and Political Science - Non Tech
cGPA: 3.243 (given my current grades for this semester right now, it will be a 3.3 at the end)
PFA: 91.7
ACT: 28 (in a previous post I said 29, but 28 was the best non-superscored)
SAT: 1290/1600
Which will be used/is better, SAT or ACT?
Also, I plan on working overtime during winter break to improve my PFA score before we take our FT PFA. Hoping to max out, but that run kills me every time!
I'm not real involved in the wing, unfortunately. I go to the same school as the one where my det. is located, but I still live about 25 minutes away. I was able to plan classes around my ROTC schedule so I would only have to commute once a day. I started AAS, but the additional commutes (class and extra PT) were killing my bank account on tolls and gas, so I had to un-enroll. I do volunteer with the wing when I can, but that has only been 2-3 times this semester. I am an AS250, so I'm worried my involvement within the wing will really hinder me. Especially with the word going around that selection % will be way lower than last year (all but 2 cadets from the wing last year got an EA). Currently, there is about 65 200/250 cadets in the det. The Col. said that there are at least 5 that won't make the 2.5 GPA mark. And I've heard a few others are removing themselves from the program after the semester due to personal reasons, so I see myself competing against approx. 55 others.
Can anyone tell me the percentages for each criteria for FT selection? (GPA, ACT/SAT/AFOQT, PFA, Ranking, etc.)
Also, does anyone know how the Cadre determine your ranking? Is there a percentage for that as well?
