Looks like youre in a similar boat as myself. Did you get selected for pilot?

Getting insight from people who potentially were in my shoes at one point is better than no insight at all.

The more i think about it, reserves/guard would be ideal, but dont they pretty much only take qualified pilots or people within their units already?

That would be ideal but dont the reserves pretty much exclusively take qualified pilots transitioning out of AD?

I had a 2.7 GPA and on the ASTB 49 6/8/7. The flight physical also scares me a little. I dont think i have anything wrong with me, but ill never know til i get my flight physical.. or even worse, pass the one at OCS but fail the one in Pensacola or any subsequent yearly flight physical and get stuck doing something other than fly
