Good afternoon,
I'm currently a 21 year old (22 in October) working on my package to be submitted when I graduate from my university. I been in touch with a recruiter and he told me that the Air Force OTS Rated Slots are only looking for Stem Majors. I surfed the internet web and found contradicting statements regarding his claim. If the recruiter's statement is false, I have listed my credentials and experiences below. It would be awesome if you guys can give me some feedback on how to improve my chances of being selected.
Age: 21 (22 in October 2017)
GPA/Major: 3.36 (can raise it to 3.4 before graduation)/ Marketing
AFOQT Scores: I have yet to take it , but have been practicing daily. I plan to take it 3 months before graduation in February 2018. Based on my practice scores, I would place myself in the 87-93 percentile in each category.
Flight Hours: I started the process of obtaining my PPL. I plan to log around 50-60 hours before I graduate.
LOR: I'm trying to obtain one from the city Major. I'm also looking for recommendations and suggestions in this category.
Work Experience: I have had 3 jobs in college. My first one was just a summer and part time job where I helped families relocate. The other 2 were summer internships for my major. (1 was a subcontractor for and at Google. Not sure if they take these things into considerations)
Criminal Record: None, not even a speeding ticket
Physical: Very fit, a gym rat. (Highschool Football and Tennis Team, Intramural Football in University)
Notes: I know I need to get PRK/Lasik done. Currently wearing contacts.
I know there are alot of "In-process" points listed above but I know if I continue to work hard, these will be acheived. Since I was a kid, I have always dreamed of being able to fly. There is no greater privilege than serving your country and simultaneously achieving your aspirations. Any feedback is appreciated and I want to thank you guys for helping out!
-Ryan
