Not really. I have a rule to submit and forget. That’s what I did when applying to OTS. Now do I think about it? Yes and wish November was here already. But I can’t speed up time. So I’m focusing on still kicking ass at work and football!!! And my family lol.

That's a good attitude to have! Hard to not get in the head, but lord knows I'm stoked for some College Gameday!

I was technically a Lt when I applied so I didn't have a lot of first hand leadership (RPA). I will say I had a lot of "first" in my package explaining how I was the first to do something. So it could be in how you frame your experiences as well. 

Definitely agree it comes down to framing and how the board perceives the info. I made a lot of mistakes on my first application when it came to LOR and what I thought the board cared about. Glad I was able to get feedback for this go around.

You have a pretty good chance I would say! Your scores are great and looks like you did improve on leadership growth which sounds like what the board wants to see.

The waiting is the worst.. I’ve been trying to stay focused on work and other things but I catch myself over analysing my entire package sometimes, wondering if there was something I could’ve done better.

Thanks! It was definitely the focus for me after they gave very pointed feedback. Made writing the personal letter a ton easier, just reflecting on taking feedback/coming back stronger and more determined. There's almost always something you can say could be better, but as long as you're happy with how you presented yourself in your application, that's all that really matters!
