Thanks for that "Whole Candidate Score" info! Understanding there is no way to know your WCS, just wondering, is this a process where they look for avail appointment slots, other than your MOC nominators allotted appt slots? I have a vague understanding that they will look for appointment spots outside of our district. My DS self preped this year, NWP, and did very well. He's nominated by Rep, but we are in a District that is SUPER competive. (There was a sponsored FFS from our District also attending NWP, and she's already received her rightly earned appointment).There is not a traditional waitlist. There is what is known as the National Pool. All qualified candidates with nominations are put into it. The top 150 in the pool ranked by WCS will be offered appointments first. After the top 150, USAFA can select any of the remaining candidates that it chooses.

Just trying to "break my Crystal ball" here and hanging onto hope! Back-up is Preping again, at MMI this time... (Self or Sponsored).
He is VERY determined on SA, as he feels he'll fit best with that approach. And won't be 19 till end July. Young for second try at appointment. (TWE USMA and USMMA.....but still waiting on USCGA). Just trying, STILL, to understand any patterns to process, admist the seeming randomness. Thx again!
