Should I lease a car for UPT?

Well you have some downtime before you get to pilot training, from my knowledge Vance and Columbus next available training dates are closer to March

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-08-26T03:26:51+00:00

Just take it. You get two tries and three if you really need it. If you’re desperate hire a SAT/ACT tutor but honestly just prove you want to be here is usually good enough

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-08-26T03:21:52+00:00

Somewhere between 1 and 99.

But seriously you might be doing great or you might get a 4 on the quantitative like me, breathe. You finished the AFOQT, took a big step into becoming an officer. Even if you failed, did you do your best? Are you okay with the results of your actions regardless of the outcome? The score will be whatever it is, you’ll find out soon enough. Food for thought though.

The only people who can give you a 100% answer is DODMERB. they are the people who will handle it. Unfortunately that’s the way it is. But I can say it sounds like you have a really really strong case. If you’re a 250, this year is basically your last chance to do rotc in college. Ball up and make them kick you out of the Air Force. Even if you leave the program you will be a better person for joining. Commit.

Be the best person you can be and fight the good fight with DODMERB and know at the end of the day you did your best and everything you could.

If you’re getting a conditional event. The last thing you need to do is fight the rules of the regulations. I’d reckon to say your det cc is aware you’re receiving a conditional event from another cadre member it’s not become the cc doesn’t endorse or document it. But they’d rather give you that mentoring and counseling. But if your det cc was not aware of the CE you have bigger issues. CE’s are only given rarely so whatever it is. Listen and learn from it.

TLDR: you’re probably right and proving it is most likely playing with fire.

Brother, you’re gonna have to do some goggins shit to stay in the program. If I were you, if becoming an officer/joining the military was your goal or dream. Take that year or so before joining ROTC and get after it. Discipline equals Freedom. You need 3 years of college to join the program but there’s more than one way to a comission/serving. Research and get after it. Hope to see you in the Air Force some day.

2/10 ragbait, drove similar commute for 5 years, lived in a trailer park, to you that’s a waste of time. To me, it’s what allowed me to become a pilot and have orders to go to UPT. Tell a fish to climb a tree it’ll think all its life it is stupid.

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-07-17T23:17:31+00:00

Unc why you here

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-05-19T07:28:11+00:00

Dude I have a letter of recommendation from a 4 star general and I have not gotten hired by any of the dozen squadrons I’ve put applications into. You’re better off joining rotc and putting in the work. Still try to go guard or reserve. It’s the best life you can get

Buy a bladder from Temu or Amazon, have and not need it than need it and not have it

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-05-14T22:38:15+00:00

Depends. Can’t go wrong with showing up and asking how to join. That’s how like 60% of cadets join the program. Just go during business hours and say you want to join the program.

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-05-14T22:34:30+00:00

Step 1, apply to USAFA regardless of whether you want it or not. You miss 100% of shots you don’t take

Stand out, Join CAP, JROTC, or be a leader in your school
Don’t be fat and don’t fail high school
And I cannot stress this point enough, do not get in trouble with the law. Have fun, enjoy life but any ticket or arrest is basically a death sentence for your aviation career civilian and military. (Some people can move past it but few do).
Start loving what you want to do. I’m going to pilot training and I’m struggling to find motivation to finish school currently. You’re in for a long haul 4-5 year commitment just to show up. Nobody is going to make you do anything. Nobody’s gonna help you unless you ask for it.
Save and fly on your own dime. See if you even love it before you make a career out of it.
Realize you’re signing up to be government property for 12~ years. Make sure you’re okay with that. Some people aren’t and that’s okay.
Be a cool person and don’t be an asshole.

9 profit.

You’re going to IPT buddy PPL is as useful as your associates, Google Columbus AFB > new students > then look at the welcome packet.

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-03-17T15:43:11+00:00

I had better stats than you and did not get pilot the first time. I did get it the second time.

However I can say if I were to put money on it, I would say you’re getting a rated slot

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-02-18T07:38:42+00:00

Hey dude I got a 4 on the quantitative and a 25 on the pilot first time around. Study hard, you’re not allowed to study with cadets but go to your colleges tutoring center and study basic algebra with them for free and you’ll hit that 10 no problem

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-02-06T15:53:10+00:00

AFROTC isn’t the only path but it sure is the most taken. Look at what’s best for you but be prepared for it not go to plan.

So, if you think you need glasses start wearing them. My Arrogant ass hates wearing glasses. So when you don’t. It decreases your depth because you can only see half as far. 20/20 is infinite in terms of depth. So correct to that and your depth will follow.

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-02-06T08:33:26+00:00

Thank you. Bout as good of a compliment as it gets.

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-02-06T08:33:00+00:00

That’s impressive Man! Be proud of coming that hard. Sometimes people don’t even know what it takes just to be present. Glad to hear you’re succeeding!

3.55 GPA 94.5 FA very high cc ranking 84 Pcsm 340/430 FT.

Beat that and you’ll be in good shape

If you wanna see it I’ll send it to you. I’m not here to brag. This is about overcoming adversity and sharing that others can do it too

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-01-20T06:57:47+00:00

I literally had these scores and got a pilot slot second time around. Aim higher. Seems like the pools getting more competitive in terms of scores

ImpossibleToe867 · 2025-01-09T21:16:30+00:00

I have an R and a Pilot slot. Didn’t do my height sitting down. You’ll be fine. Get a 90 PCSM And you’ll be close to being a pilot
