OP did you get picked up for the June board or are you competing to get sponsored?

I'm shooting for the June board as well. Your AFOQT scores aren't too far off my first try. I'd retake as soon as you can. You may want to check if you can even apply with a 13 verbal. I thought the minimum was 15 but I could be wrong.

I was picked up by a heavy unit at Pope AFB for pilot. I found out not too long ago that I was DQ for eyesight so I think I'm going to accept a NAV spot.

As far as your question on med/SG, the ANG process may be different then the reserves, but I was sponsored then went to MEPS. DQed after MEPS but prior to my flight physical by someone...I'm still not entirely sure who DQed me. Then at FCIA the flight doc said that I would have no problem getting a waiver for a IFCI for pilot.

Good luck!

First Try:
Pilot-79
Nav- 52
AA-35
Verbal- 18
Quant.- 55

PCSM- 84

Second Try:
Pilot- 96
Nav- 70
AA- 77
Verbal- 72
Quant.- 73

PCSM- 92

Is anyone else here wanting to go through the June Board? If so, what are your scores, what sponsors and what base are you looking at? Cargo or Fighters?

I've been sponsored by a unit to go to the June boards...Scores:

PCSM: 94
AFOQT Pilot: 93 (I can't remember my other scores...I'm already commissioned and its been a long time since I looked at my other scores)
Undergrad GPA: 3.3 (I might be off +/- .1.I would need to pull up my resume)
MBA GPA: 3.7
Prior Service Crew Chief on 141s & C5s

Not sure what other scores I could post without going into OPRs, etc

I am about to post a sticky but check out :

Its a direct link to the people who run the AFRC board and they want people to ask questions. That way, you are getting the most up-to-date info

I do plan on taking the AFOQT again, but was curious about what scores they focus on.....ex: just pilot or all together? When I do increase the verbal (yes, I know it was pretty low... guess I should have focused on those besides Aviation) will it raise the others? I also, plan on taking the PCSM again after the AFOQT.

I believe the analogies are the only component of the verbal composite that factor into the algorithm to calculate your pilot score. Wantscheck.com has an equation that does not include any of the verbal sections, but everywhere else I checked included the analogies. Otherwise, both the analogies and word knowledge sections are used in conjunction with your quantitative score to derive your Academic Aptitude. Raising your verbal score would show positive results on your pilot score and AA.

I've picked up a sponsor and I'm shooting for June AFRC board as well. I've knocked MEPS out and I'm trying to get this FC1 scheduled ASAP. I'm learning that's there's nothing quick about this process at all.

ugh...I feel ya on that one........June couldn't come fast enough lol....luckily I have a decent amount of travelling over the next few months that will help time go by fast......

[jo1scmo2]

I've also got a sponsor and shooting for the June Board. I'm scheduled for my FC1 and hoping these next few months fly by.

My scores are:

PCSM: 96 with 80 hours
Pilot: 99
Other Scores: 80s and 90s
GPA: 3.8

[HeyWatchThis]

A small sigh of relief....got my MFS date. I was a little worried because I only had 1 week I was actually going to be stateside and able to get to WP on a Wednesday......

[JakeFSU]

How quickly do you think a unit can't put together a package for the board? Has anybody had experience or know of someone who quickly put together an AFRC package with only about two months to go? Assume that all the applicant has all the materials (e.g., transcripts) he needs to get and MEPS has been completed. Is it realistic to get the FC1/MFS scheduled and competed before 25 May?

[GunsUp]

I know a few guys that are in the same boat as you. You should be able to make it but there isn't much room for hiccups in the process. After MEPS it took me about 3 weeks to get a FC1 date. (non-prior/no waivers) Then add on around 3 weeks of a heads up on your dates, plus however long it takes to get results back...and pray nothing goes wrong in the process.

[HeyWatchThis]

Reviving this thread since we are getting closer to the board...any updates, new sponsors, etc?

[GunsUp]

Good luck to everyone submitting their package this week. The FY13 OTS dates can be found here. http://www.au.af.mil.../classdates.asp

[HeyWatchThis]

[jo1scmo2]

Good luck man! I don't know where everyone else is...in the past these threads would normally get a lot more activity right around the board.....

[jo1scmo2]

Thanks, good luck to you too. This must be the quietest AFRC board thread...I'm going to pretend that means less applications/competition for a slot, haha

Any insider info as to how many slots are allocated at the June board?
