Never said the top 150 list was shared with me so I can't answer your question. You also seem to enjoy targeting people for what they say.

Just asking you to share the information that apparently you have. You had said previously that you were in the “top three“ but then weren’t sure how you would move up or down from that position but never really elaborated so apparently you do have at least part of that “list” shared with you.

Is this a top 150 list in New Jersey or is it nationwide? I realize that this came from “small talk“ with your FFR, but it would be helpful if you could share this information with others.

You are saying this picture is all of NJ or just NJ-11 of Morris County, etc? Looks like it is from the USMA website as well?

This is not a top 150 list, this simply states the number of candidates receiving appointments in NJ. Let me see if I have more information from these powerpoints slides. These cannot be found on the USMA website. They have been prepared by the NJFF but are only shared through info sessions/presentations. I simply took screenshots

OK, thanks. I didn't think that was a "top 150" list, but appreciate you sharing your info.
 
Last year we had 14 appointments from NJ-04, that I've gotten verified by my FFR. They're trying to beat it this year, NJ is extremely competitive, especially where I am and up north.

Yes, NJ-04, 05, and 11, typically have the highest number of appointments, at least that's what I'm told by my FFRs

What do you know about the stats for NJ-07?

I can't say for sure but 3 years again when Rep. Lance was still in office, they had 4 kids with an appointment. Not sure what it's like today, but I would say fairly competitive. Try checking up with your FFR, he might give you some sense into your competition.
 
Most State or District FFRs track this information annually and review it with the entire FF. The rep in Houston calls it an annual AAR. The 12 Congressional Districts in Houston average 30-35 appointments a year with another 10 or so in USMAPS or Civilian Prep.

The raw numbers give you an idea of what is happening in the state or area but it still does not really give you a good idea of the landscape. You really need to know how the appointments are charged. Were they recruited athletes, service connected nominations, prep school appointments, diversity candidates holding LOAs etc? On one side you could have 10 candidates appointed from one district and it not have been very competitive for the one person to win the MOC's slate if the other 9 were appointed primarily for other reason. You could also have only one candidate appointed from the district in and that district be highly competitive but all candidates were only competing for the one slot. These are both extreme cases but highlight the uncertainty of the process. Reality is that it usually somewhere in the middle.
 
The 150 list mentioned is the National Waiting List. Candidates are listed in order of WCS and must have a Congressional nomination for one of those slots. (Also, it certainly matters how competitive one's district is. For example, you may not end up being the top nominee holder from your MOC, but it certainly helps you with the NWL assuming you have a strong WCS). That helps explain the disparity between appointments by congressional district nationwide.

I am glad I reread the thread after this.

It would have been better at the beginning.
