    That graphic is the number of applicants selected for pilot from the board. Go to this link on the portal to get the full slide deck. It will give you that same info for RPA, ABM, and CSO all from the same boards. They only publish numbers selected, never the number that applied. They make the same generic post on their portal page though saying the numbers are around 200 total applicants. If you add each total up, and assume 200, you've got over a 50% shot at getting picked up for something.

    I can confirm that is definitely true. I submitted mine with a waiver a couple months ago, and it came back stating no waiver required. They are still requiring me to go to Wright-Pat though. Yes, this is for AD only. I would look for another thread for your question, not sure anyone here is going to be much help. I would guess you should be looking for OTS information though.

    So the reduction means you don't have to get a waiver for eye surgery anymore? My physical is already submitted with a waiver for LASIK so I'm just wondering.

    I guess there's good and bad news there for you. Last year rated applicants weren't required to rank ABM, so you wouldn't have to worry about that one atleast. The bad news... You said you don't have portal access? Does that mean you are new to AD and are in the RPA pipeline right now? If so, I believe you have to have 2.5 years post training to apply. That'll also in the board release when it drops though.

    Not sure there's anyway to know that until the release drops, but I would speculate that that will be the case again. They ran into the problem of not being able to fill ABM and CSO slots two boards ago because not enough people ranked them, so by making you rank all of them, then they can fill all their slots. Who knows though? Maybe they'll change their mind. It does appear those slots are going to people with lower scores when you check out the stats on the portal. There also are far few of those slots than pilot, so it doesn't seem that likely you'd get them if you put in a little time to get a competitive package. The ones I know that have gotten those slots, are the ones that just wanted a career change and didn't really care what they got.

    That's what I am assuming, but I'm not sure of an official announcement saying that. The past two board releases have dropped in June. If they sped it up, it wouldn't hurt my feels though.

    First off, congrats to all of those that were selected for the 2018 board! I know the MyPers release has not dropped yet, but I wanted to go ahead and put this thread up because last year one of the board members was nice enough to reach out and give us info early on here. Also, it lets everyone thinking of applying get a head start on asking questions. Best of luck to everyone, and I look forward to seeing the updates!

    Dutch566 did you have an ETP too? If not, would you mind sharing your PCSM?
