Yeah, I'm also a DEC graduate. I am going to try to find a USAR unit just in case. I really don't see the cut off line getting anywhere near 80.
It just depends on how many people volunteer guard/reserves that have high OMS and how much the army wants to take. From the brief at LDAC, from what I remember, it's around 3500.
Who knows how the scores will adjust now that the system has changed. The cutoff for last year being thrown around online was a 75.15. What did your cadre tell you to expect?
They said they think I will barely scrape by, as in being in the bottom of oml. However they said that it is hard to predict numbers cause of the major changes. They basically said it could be high 70s to mid eighties .

Plan B: Plant seeds of doubt about active duty life in higher performing Cadets and encourage them to branch Reserve.
I think there's a lot of ambiguity this year. I did marginally higher than you and was told I was golden for AD and that the gray area would be around 75-78. Your cadre is saying as high as into the 80s. Doesn't seem to be much uniformity in counselings.
hahaha that's a good idea. When I was at LDAC a lot of people in my platoon wanted to go reserves/NG (about 50%). Even cadet's from VMI and the Citadel were opting to not go active. It's shocking to hear that the cutoff could go to 80 or more, like some people are speculating. I was looking at past accessions, and the largest OMS jump score seemed to be from 72 (FY 12) to 75.15 for the most recent FY cohort (FY 13, though I'm not sure cause this number is based of online posts, I can't seem to find the FY 13 accessions results anywhere). I'm curious how many less AD slots are available compared to last year?
Not waiting until four weeks before I graduate to tell me if I have to find a full time job would be a decent start.
